Why are there so few questions on ancient history and archeology on Yahoo Answers?
Ancient history and archeology are fascinating subjects. So why, apart from regular questions on the Romans, are there so few questions on these subjects? It doesn't help that there is no specific YA! section for these subjects, but surely there should be more questions??

Have to agree. We seem to have the same questions over and over again. Mostly by kids too lazy to do their own homework.
Would love to see some good history questions on here. Most get hidden by kids who can't think for themselves

I would disagree.
I've already answered a question about Germanic tribes today,and remember one about ancient Greece from yesterday.I have answered plenty about ancient history on a regular basis,and not just on the Romans - a period that covers over 1000 years,so if you're taking them out you could as easily say there are few questions about WW2 - if you don't count ones about Germany.

in case you have been on my own on an island and had under no circumstances heard of The Bible or the different non secular doctrine - and have been to cry out to the universe/god/your supersoul/regardless of - might you genuinely get The Bible as an answer in return? i individually doubt it. The Bible replace into written by employing adult adult males and edited and adjusted and rewritten over one thousand's of years. It says birds are bats, and that the international is flat and the midsection of the universe between a heaven in the clouds and a hell in the caves. It does not condemn slavery and has no point out of the americas by using fact the folk then did no longer additionally be conscious of the americas existed. I appreciate the deeper meanings and the dialectic conflicts of guy - the conflict with god/evolution/soul/regardless of - however the Bible is in basic terms a e book, a decision of myths and parables and a few historic past that factors to truths fairly than scientifically explains paleontology. Noah's Ark did no longer exist. Bats are not Birds. No race of giants ruled the earth. I remember examining an early missionary's touch with the Cherokee. He had a very confusing time attempting to transform them, by using fact they had no theory of h4ll, and that they theory it somewhat stupid and unusual that god might desire a son, or have a son to die for human beings... It appeared to be a team of ridiculous nonsense...and while informed the bible replace into the residing word of god, a close-by located it against his ear and listened in basic terms to pay attention no longer something. In a feeling the Cherokee would desire to make certain greater for sure, and in a feeling fundementalists are likewise no longer able to make certain the large granduer and large factor approximately technology and the easy ask your self of the evolutionary methods of replace that happened over incomprehensible eons of time. there is something virtually humbling a pair of set of dinosaur footprents than run disappearing under thousands and thousands of years of stable sandstone.
