Those runes were totally gratified

I learned in my scandinavian class in college that they dug up a nordic tavern ruin, and inside found a stick with carved runes on it. When translated, it said something to the effect of "HELGA SAYS COME HOME RIGHT NOW."

would sub c/ancient_shitposting so hard

I always liked how archaeologists would dig up ancient statues of big-breasted and big-butted women and call them evidence of a "cult of fertility". I guess that sounds better than "porn".

Man has felt the need to leave his mark on this world since the very beginning. Not likely to ever change

I visited a 17,000 year old cave painting site in France, and the whole walk into the cave there are modern day graffiti signatures like "Bob, 1992" etc. but then you start to notice that the years go back further and further...1827...1761...1597. Then you get to the old cave art and it kind of feels like a continuation of the same shit, just some people leaving their scribbles on a rock like they have been probably since they discovered how to do it.

I had a book of graffiti, one of them was described as an arrow written up a wall next to a urinal up to the ceiling where a message read "by the time you've read this message, you have pissed on your shoes."

I guess this means Norsemen is more historically accurate than Vikings

Yep, same graffiti means people haven't changed at all. It's so obvious!

Probably not "Marcus is gay" since they didn't have a similar idea of sexuality, it being more or less a free-for-all.

I would unironically watch something called 'Ancient Shitposting' that focused on old graffiti and pisstakes. It would still be more relevant to history than most of what is on channels with History in the name these days.

Commit to the bit. The bit is eternal.
