Lots of penises and fuck this person and fuck that person definitely. It's almost like modern day graffiti was invented during Romans times.

I have a stack of books to read but I can’t help myself getting more. Does anyone have a good book recommendation for the war of the Triple Alliance where Paraguay lost most of its male population by fighting 3 of its neighbors at once? I’d love to know the thought process of the clearly deranged leader of Paraguay as well as obviously how the war itself played out

Inscription Translation:
There once was a man from Leeds
Who thought marriage would satisfy his needs
So he got a girl from Rome
And brought her into his home
But she would not help him sow seeds.
>Well, wouldn't that be quite lovely on display at the University.

Yeah it's pretty amazing that they recognized the bones as being you know somewhat reptilian or whatever the word is.

Finally, British have something in their museum other than stolen properties.

The British must return the things they stole from Britain to the British at once!

The Roman equivalent of writing with size 18 font, double line spacing, and never abbreviating repeated terms.
Or in other words, how I reached my 2000 word count when doing my high school English study of Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep.

This is not confusing at all (the way you put it, I mean). But it’s very complicated, and we have to consider these names were not regular like they might be in today’s Brazil: only nobles had these many names since it was, in fact, pompous. Regular people only had a praenomen, as they didn’t belong to a gens.

Reply to DNA sequencing finds first known Neanderthal family, including a father and daughter by marketrent
No hominin is an island.
Excerpt:
>The study shows that the mitochondrial genome passed from mother to child was much more varied than that of the Y chromosome passed on by fathers. This confirms that in Neanderthal societies women left their families to go and live with other groups and bear children, while men stayed put in the same clan. It is a common practice in many current hunter-gatherer societies that prevents diseases and sterility associated with inbreeding.
>Despite this strategy, the Neanderthal family of Chagyrskaya already seemed doomed to disappear in a few generations. Researchers have studied the genetic variability among all individuals and the level of identical sequences is as high as among current mountain gorillas, one of the most endangered species on the planet.
>The results also indicate that these Neanderthals were from the dominant Western European lineage and had no trace of interbreeding with their Asian Denisovan neighbors, despite living just 100 kilometers away. These data support that isolation and inbreeding contributed to the extinction of these hominins.

Like Felice Navidad in Spanish? In that case happy seems more fitting.
