    “Treadmill workers”: makes you wonder how the ancient Egyptians built their temples with massive 50ft columns. Temple of Dendur or Luxor temple etc.
    in a thousand years there would be no remnant of anything . Just the stone buildings.

    Since they were so time-consuming to affix, why didn't they design openings for feces and urine to escape through their armor?

    27:18 think of this fact, they could build temples and cathedrals and yet everyone was still using little jars and bowls to throw their detritus out the window or in a hole in their backyard.

      Truth, they didn't take them off during the day, when they were on campaign. They could actually untie a couple ties and half remove bits if they werent actually fighting, but if they were in formation on or near the battlefield, they couldn't break ranks just to use the bathroom...they either held it or went where they were, especially if it was just to urinate.

    In the original Blackadder series, in the episode "The Archbishop", Prince Edmund says of Sir Tabus Mortimer: "The King's hired killer."
    Says Prince Harry, "No, no, no. Mortimer! That tall, rather striking fellow with no ears."
    Says Prince Edmund, "Yes, that's him."

      Just not in Europe, sewage and septic systems were known and used in the Middle East, Central Asia, India but the earliest evidences lead to the Harappa civilization of the Indus Valley. There are records of the Persians, Moroccan travelers who were disgusted by the state of the European hygiene at that time
