    Ну конечно, пять тысяч лет назад люди тоже хоронили своих и лепили горшки, а мы до сих пор не научились делить один холодильник без склоки.

    Five thousand years and still no one’s invented a decent parking spot in Oman.

    Five thousand years dead and still more paperwork than my last divorce. Did anyone ask whether these people even wanted to be dug up, or do we just assume the living get to decide everything?

    Five thousand years of silence, and the first thing we do is dig up the dead to ask them about their trade routes. Cool.
