Excitement At Neolithic Site Find

Well I figured it was a modern piece since most classical pottery I've seen from Greece (strictly in books and museums mind you) have all had some kind design on them - either geometric or pictorial depending on the era. Some of the oldest Greek pottery IIRC does not have design but there is no way it could be in that good condition and the handles simply don't look right.

Question. For all that matter what's a Grecian urn?

Just what he is ode.

[Renfield]

I didn't have my glasses on when I saw this, and thought it said, "Excrement at Neolithic Site Find".

[Little Bill]

I have been arguing that for along time. These people are also peaceful and non violent, in tune with nature, the society is matriarchal, and the Mother goddess rules.

Neat !

I thought it said EXCREMENT at neolithic site...

They mighta found some of that, too!

...and the handles simply don't look right.

He's just showing off for the girl urns on the next shelf.

Thanks so much for the pings, I just love these types of things.

[SunkenCiv]

It's a pleasure.
