Out of curiosity, I bought a few books written by a few historical figures that are either philosophers or just other writers from around the same time period. I was so excited to read their works, however, I’ve found myself in quite a dilemma. 18th century English makes my brain hurt and it... read more

I'm open to a nice debate on this topic
Now i remember when people would say "why is history taught in school?" So I'm curious what everyone thinks. Should history be continued to be taught in school or not?

Favourite ancient military unit
Just out of curiosity, if you could choose one of the ancient military units, which one would be your favourite and why? For example, I would still choose Leg XIII of the Ancient Rome, however it would be still shame not to mention other legs, or even Persian Immortals.

They were ahead of us in everything..
What technique or tool did they have to be able to carve this statue on the hardest types of marble with such amazing precision? It could only be if they had advanced techniques, because now, despite the claim of technology and progress, we don't see such a sculpture in our time.
