So far we've found the remains of 16 Iron Age dogs across the all phases of the Durotriges Project, most having originally been given formal burial

Great video on an item from the British Museum's Silk Roads exhibit. Silkworms & how women cared for them and made silk, weaving technology, art, spycraft, and religion. Silkworm knowledge went one way and Buddhism went the other way. Love it. #history #archaeology 🏺 www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7d8...
