By the way, if you have a ping list, please put me on it! Always wanted to be an archaeologist. Studied Ancient, Medieval and Renaissance history in college. :)

I took History of Western Civ 101 and 102 in college. Medieval and Renaissance history would have been my bag. I always fancied myself as a nobleman. Or a fop. *chuckle*

I denounce your post, Sunken Civ.
There is not one word about racism in the entire article!
To: SunkenCiv
How deep under the surface is the town and what covered it up? I am fascinated by these old Roman ruins. I lived in Naples Italy for four years (Military) and often visited pompeii and Herculaneum to watch the excavations. So was this town also covered by some sort of volcanic activity?

That’s what happens when you don’t vacuum or sweep for several hundred years.
I looked up some photos on Google, and some foundations and walls are still above ground. Over the centuries I’d say many stones and blocks were removed to be used on other projects.

:^) Fop is best, they had it very easy. In doing some genealogy, I was surprised to find some of both, didn't expect that at all.

What Moonman62 said. Rain-induced erosion, wind-(ditto), seasonal flooding, earthworm activity, later people using the place for a quarry and dump, later people building over it...

I was always a bit of an armchair historian. Actually, I really do think I’m a high level functional autistic. Not Rain Man, but a pit bull with a fresh bone autistic.
