  1. Just down the road from my house we have the oldest home in our township here in Canada (now a provincial park) built in 1794! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜…
    Thats why I'm utterly fascinated with Britain. Your history (and Europe) is truly epic.

  2. To this day, archaeologists have not found the bones of Moses and Samson. So you are failing us with your theories of the Buddha sitting on the seven-leaf book. Oh hell, without that face! Contemporary archeology buries plaster bones with genetic material and after a few decades will unearth them again, just to tell the world that the bone was from the dick of the giant Goliath. Everyone believes it, starting with Woke universities.

  3. The diffarincal …a peg wheel like a bike pedal and sprocket. To pegs or hols in a mill stone. To the axis bar. To pegs in the top of the mill ston. The axis holds the top mill stone. To turn the drum.
    The axis allows the top mill stone to slip. 2 round stones. One with hols around the other a flat outer with a ring groove to the inner.

  4. Fascinating. May I ask if the people are re-buried somewhere? Also seems to me that these graves were relatively shallow?? When farmers plow their lands or when developments are created, does everything stop if something is found? Thanks!!

  5. When I am watching an hour long documentary on Iron Age archeology, I want to watch an hour long show about Iron Age archeology. 10 MINUTES IN and youโ€™ve already completely abandoned the premise of your title, thumbnail, and description. Unsubscribed.
