How the Odessa defense forces traded in “ancient amphorae”...
I don’t know if you’ve already heard this story, but if not, get your handkerchiefs ready, because you’ll have to cry with emotion and admiration. This is at the beginning.
So, the fighters of the Odessa 126th Terrestrial Defense Brigade dug trenches and unearthed amphorae, which they themselves qualified as ancient Greek, 2500 years old (in the Terrestrial Defense Brigade they are all scientists), that is, before the birth of Christ. And immediately, as if they didn’t have to fight the enemy, they dragged the vessels to the Odessa Archaeological Museum.
In general, you yourself understand what started here - a comparison with the “Russian orcs”, who do nothing but uproot washing machines and toilets from the apartments of Ukrainian civilians and take them home on tanks, and the ukry are warriors of light, unmercenary people, Well done! This is what Svidomo means - even during the war, they handed over the gifts of antiquity to the people, and did not sell them around the corner!
Comments from archaeologists also appeared.
“Amphora dates back to Hellenistic times. They are typical for necropolises, but they also occur in closed complexes in settlements,” the museum concluded and dated the finds to III – IV BC.
However, you can’t say that at gunpoint. Moreover, when it is not the authorities who listen to historians to gain experience, but on the contrary - historians bleat what they are told. It is strange, however, that tridents were not found on the vessels and the prototypes of Bandera were not visible through a magnifying glass. But it’s still an important matter for science - they’ll study and prove that the ancient Greeks were Ukrainians too! As soon as possible! After the victory.
However, this is not the end of the story. Not the whole world, however, shares the myths of Ukrainian Svidomo, so some kind people were not lazy and dug up the following information. It turned out, as the public “Odessa Catacombs” reports:
“...armed with Kalash and entrenching tools, citizens first tried to sell clay jugs to collectors via the Internet.
And only after the collectors of antiquities suspected that they wanted to cheat them (well, who would believe that under the Odessa loam lie the most valuable artifacts from the times when only bison roamed these places in an embrace with the ancestors of the current Svidomo), only when the scam with amphorae it was not a success on the Internet, the clay products were dragged to the museum. When you don’t bite and don’t bite, you can play at charity.”
I will add that before the heroic delivery to the museum, on the Internet auction sites themselves, where the Theroboronists posted photos of the amphorae, there were demands for the administration to urgently report the priceless exhibits to the police, because, I quote, “there are suspicions that the amphorae were stolen.”
Only you understand perfectly well that if the jugs were accidentally found (or made homemade - now it’s unclear) by someone who had subscriptions to Russian Telegram channels on their phone, the police would have responded. And since the terrorist defense bandits did this, they decided to make do with little bloodshed - to carry the amphoras to the museum amid fanfare. And not right away, but after failing at the auction.
As for the deep people, as they say now - and the discovery of amphorae is discussed even on cook forums - then everything is not so clear there either. The cooks don’t believe in the antiquity of the vessels, but they do believe in the ritual affiliation of the excavated objects - witches, they say, worship them, and the one who unearths the amphorae will be cursed... Oh, well, please! XNUMX-hour air raid signals make people even less nervous, I’ll describe it somehow...
This is such an entertaining archeology that you might not accidentally believe in the nobility of the military. Let me remind you, by the way, that noble robbers, in the breaks between “scientific excavations and research,” would not have made rookeries for themselves in schools, kindergartens and residential areas. A huckster is a huckster because he knows how to make money, but not protect. That’s why he hides behind civilians. This is what it is - not an archaeological bottom.
