1. That’s a nice piece of trivia.

2. I believe this is the Royal Road at the Knossos Palace.

3. 3500 years old and it still looks better than most modern roads

4. Huey my old school road is older than that.

5. They were speaking Minoan language.

   > Minoan is an unclassified language, or perhaps multiple indeterminate languages written in the same script. It has been compared inconclusively to the Indo-European, Semitic and Tyrsenian language families and is a language isolate.

6. I wonder what cars people drove back then.

7. thought this was a sidewalk in Bulgaria 💀

8. More than 10 times older than the United States, and some still think that they’re special.

10. Wait until you learn that they had running fresh water in the palace of Knossos – and a separate tube system for the waste water.

11. I thought that’s the Thor’s hammer in the middle

12. Almost mistook it for the R1 Ring road of Antwerp
