Wtf??
"Homo Reloaded: My Journey Through America's Gay Gun Culture"
I wish I were gay so I could use that whenever I’m ready to go again.
Plato did not call that island Atlantis, Atlantis was a moral parable, but tamanrasset river was legit. I know which Wikipedia article I'm reading next.
Welp, it flowed in completely the opposite fucking direction to the one on this map, which makes a lot more geographic sense, so don't really think Herodotus gets any points on this one
It's very short but cool
But you don't need to know about that river to look at a map and go "So there was an ancient river that flowed uphill?"
Tamanrasset River - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamanrasset_River
If they honestly think that map was accurate because they read it in a random book, I'd love to see how they think Africa became the rough shape it is now. And I mean what they think, and not what a charlatan tells them.
Ah yes, Herodotus, father of lies.
You would have to actually know something about Herodotus to know that is what he has been popularly called.
Or you could just read his histories and be like, "what the fuck are you even talking about here?" He said things like the desert in India was populated with giant ants or that if you were sick in Babylon, you asked a stranger what to do rather than go to a medical practitioner.
