And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Crystal dagger uncovered in Spain, dating to around 3.000 BC
Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI would have said it looks more like a spearpoint, but, I'm far from an expert.
that was my first thought as well. More like a Clovis point than a dagger, especially with the taper at the back just before the broken end.
DeleteAs am I, but I do agree that it's the "coolest" thing I've seen in a while!
ReplyDeleteThat's a major WOWSER! 5000ish years ago, someone had crazy, mad skills.
