Is there a way to compare the climate in the region now with what existed then?

It would be nice to have more wine.

“The numerous wine presses discovered in the vicinity of the settlement indicate the wine industry was the most important branch of agriculture in the region. A large silo, which was used to store grain, shows that the ancient residents were also engaged in growing cereal.”

Coulda told ‘em that just from reading my OT...still a cool find, though.
