Rotten fish. Boiled flour and egg.

>Taken together with the evidence of an unusual burial rite and grave goods, the evidence all points to the Bangle Lady's high status in Roman York. It seems likely that she is of North African descent

No.

You wuzn't.

>The ancestry assessment suggests a mixture of 'black' and 'white' ancestral traits and the isotope signature indicates that she may have come from somewhere slightly warmer than the UK.

but she was half black

"look the romans brought some black gladiators and sheeit, ergo black people have always been here in fact even before the anglo saxons you english invaders therefore they have a right to be here so don't criticise tony blair's immigration policies in the late 90s fucking bigot vote corbyn blud"

It was a raid, not an advance. It completely bypassed the still not actually conquered parts of Aquataine.

>>3350460
The M*slims went on to lose at Avignon, Berre, and Narbonne. Tours itself is kind of exaggerated as a battle, it was just a turning point in the war.

They heard about the riches of French cities and went in to loot and raid for quick bucks.

They never intended to seriously stay.

Probably because the Chinese civil war was immediatly after WW2

WW2 had just ended and everybody underestimated Mao until it was too late.

Mao's opposition was also a complete fucking shitshow.

It was basically just Medieval Germany. Charlemagne met with the Pope and the Pope was like "Surprise, you're the new Roman Emperor now!"

they werent. just most of the ones english speakers will read about

French archaeologists discovered the rosetta stone, the brits just won a battle and took it off the french

German (amateur) archaeologist discovered the ruins of what was Troy and took loads of interesting jewellery. and then most of it disappeared into soviet "safekeeping" at the end of WW2

>>3350250
If you actually know about the history of archaeology then you will know that archaeologists come from all over the place. You just think most archaeologists are British because of pop culture figures like Howard Carter, despite France having many more notable Egyptologists.

>>3350250
Those are just the ones you hear about, there's a lot of famous French and Italian archaeologists who are responsible for a lot of our knowledge about Egypt (fuck the Italians though, they were no better than your average tomb robber in 9/10 cases).

accumulation of specie

Do your own homework.

In short: The differences are more power to the state, less economic prosperity overall and less freedom for its people. I don't see how those are advantages over capitalism.

>>3350232
>more power to the state
As opposed to corporations and companies?

>less economic prosperity overall
valid argument I suppose

>less freedom for its people

No the Germans disavowed Rudolph Hess the minute he set foot in the UK and allowed him to be imprisoned at the Tower of London.

Hitler claimed Hess was insane and acting on his own. There is no reason to believe otherwise. Historical proof shows Hess truly acted on his own in proposing peace to the British, and Hitler was not aware of his plan.

This is where the myth of the Nazis wanting peace with the UK mostly comes from.
