IRISH SCULPTURE
built by the Irish people to honor the American Choctaw tribe.

They were grateful because in 1847 the Choctaw people sent money to Ireland when they learned that Irish people were starving due to the potato famine

The oldest paved road you can walk in Europe is the Minoan Royal Road in Crete, Greece, which is over 3.500 years old connecting the ancient sites of Knossos, Gortyn & Lebena.

If you go to Knossos, you will step exactly where the Minoans walked 4.000 years ago.
