Runa posted:Prehistory: the period of time before recorded history. Recordings include calendar dates. If having to convert dates ruins anything then the answer to this guys question is simple: when the Gregorian calendar was adopted since this shifted dates by 11 days and therefore there is a conversion neccessary so the answer is 1582 globally with more specific answers possible for each country for America and the UK it would 1752 except for Alaska where the oldest date that doesn’t need a conversion is October 18th 1867

The calendar discussion from the people responding to that weird guy was actually really well-researched and interesting so I picked a random page to learn some more ancient history stuff and lol at this exchange:Parmenides posted:Elephants are another example of Sparta's general superiority. They were able defeat elephants on the field, but also lead them to victory. In terms of defeating elephants, Spartan reserves beat Pyrrhus and his pretender king; presumably the Epirote brought his elephants with him. In terms of leading elephants to victory, a small force of Spartans arrived in Carthage and saved the city; elephants formed an important part of the Spartan strategy. Kaal posted:My friend posted this yesterday and it seems too perfectly timed for me to not share it. Parmenides posted:That meme is embarrassingly bad. I don't even know where to begin, but I feel compelled to at least speak up and advise you against posting it again. For your own sake and continued good reputation. Find better friends; there are some good works from Classical Antiquity about friendship, btw, maybe read them and go from there. Parmenides was later banned for posting a lengthy post about how if he was a Helot (A type of enslaved person in Sparta) he would love Sparta and focus upon spending time with his family learning a trade and all the other Helots would love him.

Parmenides posted:Anyway, I cut out the rest of the nonsense you wrote, and I won't bother quoting the other posts where americans were wringing their hands and crying about slavery or whatever. I regard helotry as a type of serfdom. I think serfdom is a practical and helpful institution that should be implemented to varying degrees in most countries today. Some countries like China do so, to their overall benefit. i don't think slavery is suitable or positive in modern society, but

I’ve been doing some thinking some reading and a LOT of listening. I’ve been doing the work. I brought harm to others and I apologize. I am not the man I once was. my official statement after posting a meme referring to the Roman slave revolt leader as “Farticus”

Slavery is an important part of LGBTQA+ culture and everyone should sit down and listen to queer posters before speaking up.

Actually they were known to be dead in the 1850s but they found the actual ships in 2016 or thereabouts. there's a really great show about this, highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjq7Gl_hhPY don't bother with season 2 though it's about Japanese ghosts or something totally unrelated
