jumpingjacktrash:the-future-now:“You want to talk history, be prepared to be schooled.” (via)follow @the-future-nowseriously, jeez. i can see people honestly believing that, for instance, vikings were all white – we know they traveled far, but evidence that they brought back crewmen and wives from points south is less obvious – but the romans? their whole deal is that they ruled, traded, and sent troops and officials everywhere from hadrian’s wall to the sahara. to imagine there weren’t africans in britain and celts in egypt on roman business is to be willfully stupid. -- source link
