  • The best part is that if memory serves right there’s another tablet that sheds light on the fact Nanni owed money to Ea-nasir. The reason Ea-Nasir sold Nanni shitty copper was because he was offloading shit goods onto someone he was probably going to take to court anyways. We know about all of this because a copper merchant several millenia ago did the equivalent of saving texts for legal reasons.



















  • It would’ve been madness in that region at that time. The Romans were writing entire books on natural history and that’s not even getting into something like the lost works on the Etruscan civilization. Recording things in that way fell out of favor with the Jewish people at that time due to centuries of rather brutal occupation requiring a certain level of obfuscation. Though I will say that objectivism wasn’t a concept at that point, the Garlic Wars is as much an account as it is propaganda by Caesar.
