good luck with that sanity thing. I consider it a win if I don't bite anyone these days. I am enjoying this series very much.

[@cameronw.898]

I wish it was possible to travel to Iran to visit this site and many of the other amazing places in that beautiful country. One day! 🤞🏼

[@elihinze3161]

Yay!! I love sites from this part of the world, and Susa has seen SO much!

Hey Raven, never seen your channel but you should talk about Alexander's gates, Caspian gates, the red dragon, the red snake, aka Alexander's wall... It's mostly on the east side of the Caspian but also the west. It's for molten metal poured into the ground for hundreds of miles. To what end? I think they assumed some magical power was at play, or something we just don't understand. It also had forts and garrisons. Wall of Gorgan, that's another name for it.

I hope you're able to continue these programs they are very insightful.

It's Monday...uh...early evening...for you! (Monday all the same;) So I WON'T ask you about the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow. BUT THAT IS SUCH AN INSPIRED COMPARISON! Look at you, Raven! Working hard and weary and STILL all about the creative funny! Much applause! (Puts on hat...tips it toward you)

What's the point of living if you can't fit Monty Python into everyday conversation!?

[@classicslover]

@@DigItWithRaven International Internet High Five to that...

[@rosetownstumpcity]

ive been hoping susa would be on the advent calendar

[@DigItWithRaven]

Glad I could deliver!

[@JenniferinIllinois]

OMG, the Monty Python reference. Love it!!!!

[@M.M.83-U]

Great video! Some places are just more "interesting" to live in. Flanders, Novara, Gaza, etc...

[@Davlavi]

should we be doing proabition again?

[@DavidLC11]

Sounds more like Swamp Castle.

[@bpora01]

I would like to know how some of the sites in Iraq have fared after the occupation and the recent wars

[@linda10989]

I've always wondered how female Western archaeologists are treated in the Middle East?
