If they have bronze age mice, do they have bronze age keyboards, monitors and printers?
The people who spend years looking for and analyzing things like this amaze me. Imagine searching through whatever kinds of rotting debris as they have to in order to try and uncover something of some value. And of all things, finally, they have this. A little piece of a thousands of years old mouse jaw! And they think this is important? When, for thousands of years people have always known that mice, rats, roaches, cats, dogs, etc. got on the ships, or in caravans, or rode on wagons, etc. that people used to travel anywhere and, thus, spread everywhere.
Interesting that the ship is identified as a royal ship with a scarab bearing the name Nefertiti.
She disappeared from Egyptian history sometime around the 14th year of Ankenaten’s reign. There are lots of theories about her disappearance. We could make one up that includes this ship
Maybe she got caught in somebody’s bed and beat feet—or was on a diplomatic/pleasure cruise of the Med—or whatever and wound up on this ship?
