Finding Stuff All Over Place!

Egypt and now...
Archeologists Uncover First Remnants Of Tenea
Quote:It is believed that the first inhabitants were former Trojan prisoners to whom Agamemnon, King of nearby Mycenae, permitted to build their own town after the Trojan War. Hence the name Tenea resembles that of Tenedos, their home-town...Tenea flourished by founding with Corinth the colony of Syracuse. Commerce brought great wealth to the city.”
“Later on, during the Roman invasion in Corinthia, only Tenea was spared due to the mythic common descent of the inhabitants of Rome and Tenea.”

Usually this happens because someone was carving land to build something and found something interesting. A few years ago they had to halt a construction of a dam here in Portugal, because they found stone age scribblings.
There is so much to be found on earth and ourselves, as in the universe. Oh well, I work in a meat preocessing plant, so not much science generated there.

So a mythical king took prisoners from a mythical city in the aftermath of a mythical war? There's enough mythology there to found a religion. I'm surprised it didn't catch on.

As high priest of the Agamemnonianites, I am offended by your crass comment.

And what kind of silly hat do you wear?
You can't have a religion without a silly, fucking, hat.

HA!! You're trying to trick me into a heresy! If that bitch Electra couldn't do it, I don't fancy your chances.

Ok. Picture a golden penis covered with chinchilla fur, about 60cm high. Imagine it's got built-in aviator goggles, and a chinstrap made of dried and woven wombat dung.
Our hats look almost, but not completely, unlike that.
