Archeological excavations in Bolaghi Gorge historical site led to discovery of the skeleton of a young girl belonging to 7000 years ago, who apparently died in her sleep due to an unknown reason... According to Seyedein, eight stone beads have also been discovered with the skeleton of the girl. These stone beads were close to her wrist and neck... According to Seyedein, the skeleton of this girl is completely intact, and even after the passing of 7000 years, her teeth have remained unharmed. Considering the broken clays around the grave of the girl, archeologists believe that she should have lived during the Bacon era. Although the skeleton has been discovered near the clay oven, archeologists believe that there is no relation between them. Burying the corpse in the floor of residential houses was one of the most common burial methods during the pre-historic time. Archeologists are now trying to figure out if it were also true about this 7000 year-old girl. Archeological excavations in Bolaghi Gorge started when experts learned of the hazards the newly constructed Sivand Dam poses to this historical site... The 18-kilometer Bolaghi Gorge is located 9 kilometers from the world heritage site of Pasargadae and is considered part of its landscape. The Gorge is known to be the location of the ancient King Road built by the order of Darius the Great, the Achaemenid King.

I've never met many women who have been dead for 7000 years that turned me on that much.

"The Gorge is known to be the location of the ancient King Road built by the order of Darius the Great, the Achaemenid King."
Darius the Great - the non-Muslim monotheistic Zoroastrian Monarch the Ayatollahs would like to forget.
The Bacon era was followed by the Lettuce era, which was in turned followed by the Tomato era; only after that did the three get combined. The wait for the order in restaurants was without parallel in history.
He was the real originator of the phrase, "Achaemenid, I saw, I conquered."

Did the bacon era occur before or after the pork chop era?
