ICYMI: 🏺 Tepe Gawra, Kurdish for "the great mound", is located in #Iraq. The site offers an almost continuous sequence of occupation from the 5th to the 2nd millennium BCE. The "Round House" itself dates from around 4000 BCE.

Our architectural reconstruction is based on analysis, the excavation reports and related literature. As the reconstruction is, of course, only tentative, we have decided to use colour coding to indicate the degree of certainty in the model.

The "altruism" of big guns, a.k.a. "supporting democracy" around the globe, in places where it never was.

What would the #US arms industry do if there was no conflict in the world? Make sure one spark can become a wildfire and then level cities to the ground?

Nah, these things never happen. #sarcasm

(My added) blue/red zones are Democrat/Republican administrations.
