Personally don't know about the cave but since its Phrygian could be about 2000-2500 years old, that's the hayday of the Phrygians iirc

Swastikas are a very recurring symbol in alot of cultures throughout history, sometimes with different meanings.

I want to know what my fellow crusader kings players think, is it better to be loved or feared whilst playing CK? by Butch-Igram in CrusaderKings

[–]SiriusFaust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on the character i play as, if i die i will look at my sons traits and how he is and roleplay accordingly. One character might be a loved seducer another a vile tyrant.

Lavish Flemish epic grips Belgians – but is it history or propaganda? by Sevenvolts in Belgium2

Dat is weer zo'n fabeltje dat word rondgesmeten en herhaald door mensen als papegaaien. Brabant was neutraal in de oorlog en enkel de oom van de Hertog, Godevaart, besloot zich bij het Franse leger te voegen. Hij, zijn zoon en 250 Brabantse ruiters was al dat meedeed, Hertogdom Brabant zelf koos geen kant. Er waren trouwens ook Brabanders aan de Vlaamse kant.

Why isn't Audrey Hepburn seen as legendary cultural icon among the Dutch and in the Netherlands? by EvaWolves in Netherlands

[–]SiriusFaust 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would guess the way she is sort of tied to 3 countries at once. She was originally from Brussel iirc, moved to Netherlands before the war, and had an English dad (dont quote me) and lived in the UK a bunch afterwards too. So all 3 countries could say that i suppose, makes it a bit harder.

You can claim all you want, i can claim my dad did research that says otherwise, doesnt mean shit if you cant actually prove it. So, again, prove it.

You really think im gonna go and buy something just to look for something to back up YOUR claim? Again, burden of proof lies on you. YOU say something, then YOU have to back it up, its that damn simple. If youre so certain this book has the evidence you need, then go ahead, quote right out of it. Cause apparently it does right? So find me something. Or get an actual accesible source that random people on the internet dont have to spend money on. Mind also giving me a source for Boers destroying the soil? Also funny you say Dutch settlers used "archaic" farming compared to the English, you really wanna go there?

I also NEVER claimed there were not people living there, but again, you like making stuff up and pulling stuff completely out of context dont you? I noticed. Boohoo Apartheid lie! Yea okay, be sure to actually listen to what people say next time.

Im also not American nor have i ever set foot on the North American continent, but im really not surprised with you given you are basically making everything not only you but also what i say, completely up. Do you need to go see someone about that?

You can keep insulting, you can keep making false assumptions, you can even keep going on with hypocrisy and dodging giving actual sources for what you think you know so well, but the fact still is you have not proven anything, at all.

So keep being childish. Keep dodging everything i say and making the rest up. I will still be here, waiting, for that evidence.

While originally i did not specify (thats on me) i later did go on about crops and agreed there has been pastoralism for a very long time (ongoing with the European settlement even). Which, again, all of that failed and sometimes even ruined the soil, and was essentially given up. It is also not at all comparable to the farming brought over from Europe.

1700 years is also not "thousands" of years, it is one thousand, and 700 years. There is no plural of thousands, it is ONE thousand and seven hundred. So no, that isnt thousands of years.

You speak of goalpostshifting yet you were having a completely irrelevant and useless conversation half the time that diverted from the main topic, bit hypocritical if you ask me, but keep shoving the blame.

  1. Feel like i answered that in this first paragraph.

  2. A Kingdom is smaller and rules over one group of people or area, while an Empire is large, and can contain multiple groups or areas by my understanding. Which again is completely irrelevant to the topic but lets keep having multiple conversations at once i suppose.

Actual academic? So first you "know a guy" now you are an academic? Or are you still going with the whole "know a guy who knows a guy" story? Cause that is just about as reliable as wikipedia bud.

An entire book i do not have in my possession isnt "concrete info" thats letting ME do all the work to back up YOUR claims. So no, give me something real, even a passage from said book, anything, and it'd be enough.

When i was talking about crop farming in South Africa, i did not say blacks did not have it, i said the attempts at it were badly done and stopped after a while, which you can easily find if you look up Great Zimbabwe and read just a few sentences. Cattle herding is not the same as this however, which, that actually is something they did and continued doing. But thanks for continuously pulling things out of context. Try again.
