CARTHAGO DELENDA EST

[muawiyah]

Every now and then we'll have some discussion on FR that involves the DARK AGES (which begn in AD340 or thereabouts) and along comes a Freeper assuring us that there was no "dark age" because, lo and behold, someone somewhere in Italy wrote a letter to the bishop saying thus and so.

Then we have this ~ a remnant of a remnant of a remaining lawcode in use in Brittain at the time it was copied.

This and a few hundred other parchments are left from the pre-Dark Ages period in Western Europe because, alas, darned near everything else was burned to keep warm!

Notice date of 535, not 3 something. Didn't catch that. Will do better in the future.

These kind of posts should carry a one or two sentence sub headline of why these discoveries are important.
