Yup

@verstrje2010 @elfstone1121 I don't look at it as a commentary on us; the poor left less to find, so they are mentioned less #181greek

[Alex Meyer @almeyer4]

@elfstone1121 @verstrje2010 I see what you mean, but it's superfluous to claim the rich man could afford the larger tombstone. #181greek

[Alex Meyer @almeyer4]

@keanem3 What makes you say that? #181greek

[Alex Meyer @almeyer4]

@kbarchaeologist @elfstone1121 Evidence of extended periods of tilling, and evidence of the agricultural use typical of anthrosols #181greek

[Alex Meyer @almeyer4]

@kbarchaeologist Well yes but it was also said that they would take these things with them when they left because they were light. #181greek

[Alex Meyer @almeyer4]

@elfstone1121 @verstrje2010 I agree, the idea that garbage would be spread about a field with the compost makes a lot of sense. #181greek

[Alex Meyer @almeyer4]

@elfstone1121 It probably says more about what kind of stuff they had owned. #181greek

[Alex Meyer @almeyer4]

@KB_Archaeology Big, heavy things that were hard to travel with were left behind. Some kind of hearths may still remain. #181greek

[Alex Meyer @almeyer4]

@elfstone1121 Perhaps more delicate methods must be utilized to detect these sites such as soil morphology analysis. #181greek

[Alex Meyer @almeyer4]

To sum up Sanders, we won't find any evidence of the poor farmers, everything that survives could only be bought by the rich. #181greek

[Alex Meyer @almeyer4]

Sanders says a crop of land 17 to 19 acres would be enough for a subsistence farmer. To be a farm, a site must fit this criteria. #181greek

[Alex Meyer @almeyer4]

Sanders says most evidence of poor farmers wouldn't last due to the short-lived materials they used. #181greek

[Alex Meyer @almeyer4]

Looks like the find in Anatolia proves that there was indeed a city called Troy, we still don't know if it's what Schliemann found. #181troy

[Alex Meyer @almeyer4]

Looks like after proper scientific review with carbon dating, we find that Schliemann's city may not be the Troy we know...#181Troy

[Alex Meyer @almeyer4]

So Schliemann only found some pieces of gold that were from 1000 years earlier than troy was supposed to be? #181troy

[Alex Meyer @almeyer4]

There's not much evidence for the existence of Troy yet, just a tall wall...#181troy
