I may be wrong but I believe this armour is attributed to Erasmus Kirchener, master armourer at Greenwich between 1539-67. He was in fact my 14th great grandfather on my mothers matrilineal side
Your narrative of the the Indian both south/ north has been very informative & it is very unique that both the north & south cultures & its people have mixed up very well to see a homogeneous India living from the time of Noah As you keep on referring to the book of Chronicles echoing the book of Genesis please also try to connect both books where such races have originated & how goes Chronicles echo Genesis of origin of races beginning from Noah’s three sons
oh gosh I just found myself missed this amazing exhibition
❤️🔥🍷🙏☦️ GOD BLESS ☦️🙏🇬🇷😋
Stunning 😊 Fantastic presentation.
How much does a 14 g silver seluccid the 7th coin worth?
Fun fact: Zu dashou used to drag Manchu corpses back to the fortress and cooked them into human meat chow-mein (fry noodles) during the battle of Da-Ling river. Then he started to eating merchants who followed the army and trades men and dead soldiers and Mongolian mercenaries and …….. all because Manchus attacked him while his troops were rebuilding walls for the city. The emperor and the minister of war sent him and his cavalries to fix the fortress 😓 yes, sent cavalry to do engineers’ job. The late Ming dynasty’s emperors and ministers’ stupidity always surprises me.
Leggy wormy dude😊

The word I hear over and over again is ONLINE - I think that is a Key element in the over all problem. Buy In Person, be your own person (avoid tick tock trends) and buy a measuring tape - all good clothing sites will give waist/hip inseam measurments of their size guides and if they do not - take the hint & shop somewhere that does. I think implamenting those 3 changes can improve the situation and alievete information overload & Eco Anxiety

I was hiding inside a huge tree until I slipped and fell in a huge body of water, next thing I know.. I see a glowing Hallucigenia trying to connect to my spine.
Curators inserting themselves into the work of artists… the artists adopting and mimicking the tortured descriptions of the curators. As for the acknowledgment of indigenous lands, consider abandoning the land and returning it to them or shut up, your words ring are hollow.
Cringe aot fans are destroying the comment section for those who wanna actually learn what it is.

Hi David - do you happen to live in La Cienega?

Seems illogical to assume that this is the oldest layer of construction if they are demonstrating techniques on par with other early iron age civilizations. The shift from using large stone to more economical mud brick didn't occur in SA until 900 AD. Keep in mind, in Greece, circa 900 BCE people were building alters from bones and had very little in regards to organized society. Rome would still be an empty forest with scattared tribes. Yet, these people were building walls from composite materials. Materials that require planning, resource allocation, and the divison of labour. It doesn't start at that point. I guarentee that Sudan, Ethiopia etc will produce incredible discoveries in the future.
