Reply to comment by BarKnight in Stunning silver wedding dress recovered from 17th century shipwreck by BarKnight
Fascinating , probably was en route from the Netherlands to England ? those leather book bindings with the coat of arms of Scottish-English Stuart royal family may indicate the dress belonged to them or maybe to Dutch nobility.

Yeah but it gives a could time frame since it's generally understood a lot of pyramids (especially the big ones) are dirt old.

If you are refering to the big ones in Egypt, they were built during the 4th dynasty so almost exactly 4,500 years ago. But also it's important to keep in mind that "built at the same time as the pyramids" could be like someone, 4500 years from now, "user neat-plantain-7500 lived around the time the statue of liberty was built."

Often probably not. It did happen but often isn't really correct. Especially given the totality of scientific discoveries that have occurred and still occur.

That dress is clearly orange.
Seriously, it's remarkable how well preserved it is.
