they didn't write about wiping their butts either. But I'm betting they did.


You just can't stick to an individual topic can you?

Perhaps you can show us the designs that Richard the Lionheart used to build his trebuchets?

How about the plans for the Colisseum??

Pharos lighthouse?

A Viking ship?

an English Longbow?

what..no plans?? Warwick must be making more stuff up
