Ancient warfare has always fascinated me because it feels both familiar and completely foreign at the same time. The weapons and technology are primit...
Good stuff, Bootie 👍
Really enjoyed this one. What stands out is that it doesn’t feel like the usual TV “myth busting” where the conclusion is already written — it’s just ...
