Next week: Jars of Change
This is the house we lived in (picture taken the day we moved in) it was one of 4 in a gated compound. Our address was "The Pink House", Savannakhet, Laos. LOL
I wonder how long it will be before someone argues that humans couldn’t have made the jars and that they were instead made by space monsters.
Don't you love the way people push secular humanism with the new BCE and CE designations in place of the classic BC and AD?
Wonder if the jars were used to store grain with lids to keep the vermin etc. out.
