Ancient statue discovered.

[Bereta_Eder]

things are discovered frequently. Reecently there was a ancient tomb, when the metro works were being done 100s of more ancient artifacts were also discovered.

And last friday this statue was discovered (unearthed) in Athens




from the archaic period 7-6 BC.


Now does this look Greek to you?

I think it is finally being proven true that we come from the planetary system Sirius and that we have the "E" gene. Yes, it will all be revieled.


This statue makes me want to listen to indie (as in indian) music

is that what makes you hairy?

[Bereta_Eder]

Your just jealous cause your oldest building is a philadelphia (no less) McDonalds

[Bereta_Eder]

maybe they will come from Sirius, our brothers and ancestors.

I knew we were really aliens in this world...

I think it proves that incredibly small genitalia were the height of fashion in Greece.

The statue's head looks like a Buddha.

big point

[Bereta_Eder]

yes we have come a long way.

paiktis, I hope you know that the Greek population of nowadays has hardly any ethnical links to the ancient one...

you're probably 80% of Slav origin, and 15% Turkish

[Bereta_Eder]

well I'm not good with percentage points, but judging from history and without any pro or anti greek prejudisms I'd have to say that most of our "bloodline" remains greek.

Thems be fightin' words...

I don't know about percentages, that was just a rational estimation.

Anyway, you guys can't claim to be comparable with them... all you inherited was small genitalia and hairy arses

and we have improved on them considerably.

I heard that the reasons for statues having such small genitalia in Greek/Roman society was so that they didn't make the people who they were being sculpted for, or people in power, feel inadequate...

you obviously haven't read Aristophanes orange...
Ancient Greeks were pretty vulgar and aggresive when they chose to be

It is funny to witness this "purging" of Ancient Greek thought that was performed in the 19th century mostly. By western scholars coming to Greece expecting to meet men wearing tivenus garmenta.
In some villages there is this custom of men running around with erect mock phaluses and chasing/playing dirty tricks with women. It is performed in Apokries... (the Church doesn't like it)
