Mark Forsyth, A Brief History of Drunkenness from the Stone Age to the Present Day Quoting from a secondary source: “There are huge bathtubs there, at the bottom of which chemical compounds of oxalate are found. They appear when barley is mixed with water - and it is easy to assume that...

In my opinion, these thoughts are about nothing ((( In my opinion, it is not necessary to separate the ideal from the material - the World is One! In GT we see a situation where the spiritual is formed in a specific environment. The GT cult was called upon to organize: 1. collecting and...

I agree, it's true! Plus winds with dust... But then all this says that the temple was simply abandoned. Religion GT is over! Thanks for the detailed diagram!

The question still arises, why did the ancients allow this landslide??? Or it must be catastrophic, which is not very clear regarding the source of the disaster - for example, there are no mountains from which a monstrous avalanche can slide ... It seemed to me that the quote from the book is...

Understanding the process of transformation of the "proto-IE" of the Yamnaya Culture into the IE itself is difficult because the Yamnaya Culture itself was hybrid, and consisted of two ethnic groups (at least): Caucasian, haplogroup J, and Steppe R1b. But perhaps this is the answer to the...

In what sense?

very often you can read that the Yamnaya Culture is proto-Indo-European)))) But the essence does not change - it is NOT Indo-European. There doesn't seem to be any idea how she moved to IE)

And of course, one must ask the question - what initiated the expansion of Uruk? The answer must be sought in the fact that thanks to irrigated agriculture, Uruk has become a metropolis with a population of 80,000 people. Abundant harvests produced a huge population that had to be occupied. Next...

What's interesting... Maikop arose along with the expansion of Uruk, if not earlier! At the same time, Uruk is distinguished by the poverty of the metal in the burials, in contrast to the rich Maykop. At the same time, there was NO metallurgy in Maykop itself. On the other hand, Maykop is a...

It's funny, but taula monument GT was reborn in Menorca))))

Never seen evidence that there was a landslide!!! The reason could be trivial. in 7200 BC in Anatolia, in Çayönü Tepesi, a bloody socio-religious revolution (communist!) took place. As a result, the communist Catal Huyuk appeared. And the servants of the old cult saved the temple of the old...

One of the mysteries of GT is that around 7000 BC the temple complex was covered with earth! A similar thing happened in the New World, when, 1000 years after the construction, the Ancient (3000 BC) pyramid of Karala was also covered up ... Somewhere it was that a new temple complex was built on...

Wonderful! I'll add my contribution here again. At least it is known that the beginnings of trade can be found already in GT: hundreds of obsidian knives found there were produced and delivered over 500-700 km. It is clear that no one will drag them there just like that, most likely in...

This topic deserves to be opened separately! At least it is known that the beginnings of trade can be found already in GT: hundreds of obsidian knives found there were produced and delivered over 500-700 km. It is clear that no one will drag them there just like that, most likely in exchange for...

Did R-M269 and R-Z2103 come to different parts of Europe at different times and by different routes?

At the suggestion of M. Gimbutas ("Kurgan Hypothesis"), it is generally accepted that the Yamnaya Culture is the source of Indo-European expansion into Europe. But now it is already clear that the Yamnaya Culture is not Indo-European. According to paleogenetic data, it is the result of a mixture...

R-Z2103 apparently does not exist among the Basques, the Irish and the inhabitants of England ... Then, it turns out that the article from Maciamo (.academia.edu/5965973) apparently indicates that the expansion of R1b ,"The Conquest of "Old Europe" and Central Europe (4200-2500 BCE)" and "The...

Nobody says that R1b are Indo-Europeans! It is only known that 1. R1b took part in the creation of the Indo-European community in the steppes between the Black and Caspian Seas. 2. European R1b does NOT contain Yamnaya Culture steppe markers. The article "Genetic differentiation between upland...
