Not being as knowledgeable of things ancient, i'm happy i can follow along without becoming baffled, and that no prior knowledge is necessary. I like that you explain terms that might be obscure. So, well done! 🙂

Thank you so much! All of this is fascinating, especially the accumulating proof of complex and interconnected societies in the bronze age all across the world. Really, schools ancient history books should be revised, and a long time ago.

I really enjoy learning about places, people, and things that I never dreamed existed. This kind of content is really awesome, so please keep making it. I think the misconception that ancient people didn't clean themselves or their items was an interesting one to hear put to rest by that paper. It makes sense that somewhere that came into being.
