The Internet in Ancient Times
- Looking for mods. Inquire within.
No Elamites, no Sea Peoples. Flint knappers accepted, bronze casters preferred.
- What are yall's thoughts on this new "papyrus"?
Today when I was visiting the marketplace for some new pots, I came across a merchant selling these odd, a bit fabric-like white sheets. He told me that the Egyptians make these from reeds to write on them.
Personally, I don't see a need for such a material. Just use a clay tablet like a normal person!
- Sword From The Orient For Sale
High quality oriental sword that took over 2 years to transport across the Silk Road.
Kept in my cellar in ideal storage conditions.
Don't try to lowball me, I know what I got.
- I finally tracked him down! Let's get him!
(This was apparently a cosplayer at DragonCon this year.)
- Grunk hate looking for job
Grunk need job. Grunk see job carving. Carving say need ten season experience with wheel. But Grunk invent wheel 5 season ago. Grunk think job giver have wheel in place of head.
- Has anyone seen Ötzi?
He said he was going up to the mountains and would be right back down, but that was at least one phase of the moon ago.
- My seer just told me of this omen he saw in the moon. Should I be worried or should I get rid of the seer? "When the Moon fully slips into Earth's shadow, a king shall die."
Description: Clay tablet from Old Babylonia with lunar-eclipse omens inscribed on it in cuneiform.
