Silly scientist, the earth isn't 65 million years old and dinosaurs coexisted peacefully with humans, but God put their bones deep in the dirt as a test.

THE TOMB OF THE KING OF ALL MARINERS BACCHANTES AIGUPTIOS HARPALYCE - HIS FATHERS OF THE HOUSE OF THE CAPHTORITES IN PELUSIUM AND KRETE - WAYFARER OF THE THRACIAN DIOI, ON THE GREEN HILLS OF MOUNT RHODOPE, TO THE SEA - AGATHODEAMON OF ALL COASTS AND ISLANDS AND RIVERLANDS - AND LOVER OF BENDIS AND KOTYS IN COTYTTIA, AND BRITOMARTIS IN KAINO, AND OF THE MAENADS OF DIONYSUS

Bacchantes Aiguptious Harpalyce (458 - 380 BCE) was a famed shipwright, polyglot, and renowned sea-goer in his time. His ancient forefathers were apparently leaders of the Egyptian Caphtorim in Pelusium, in the first millennium BCE, who by the 700's BCE migrated to Crete, marrying into the ethnic Mycenaean Cretan and far older ethnic Minoan nobility. His grandfather married a daughter of an unnamed Thracian chieftain of the tribe Dii, and his father married a daughter of the Mycenaean Cretan-Greco royal family.
Bacchantes was born in the spring of 459 BCE. Little is known of his youth, though accounts state that at a young age he had begun the trade of shipbuilding and working aboard merchant vessels. As he was only tangentially related to the upper class elite that governed Knossos, he never appeared to work primarily militarily, only commercially. Yet as a young man he eventually traveling back to Thrace, and, claiming leadership of the tribe of the Bistones and Dii, using his Grandfather and father as his legitimacy, he governed many coastal cities in southern Thrace. Most of his rule was symbolic and in absentia, as he made his fortunes in life as a successful shipwright and trader.

Traveling to Vistonida lake in southern Thrace, seizing control with a small army, followed by absorbing much of the local Bistones into the fold of his clan, he brought the territory of the Dii from the eastern and southeastern Rhodope mountains to the North Aegean.

There he formed a successful port city to the north east of Thasos and west of the Nestos river, which they annexed and conquered from Greece during the Peloponnesian War, and used as a successful trade colony, using their successful alliance with Sparta in Peloponnesian War as leverage.
They would also take during the Peloponnesian war, from the fall of the Delian league, the islands of Samothrace and Lemnos (which in 510 BC was conquered by Miltiades the Younger, the tyrant of the Thracian Chersonese. Miltiades later returned to Athens only to be now conquered again by the Thracian Dii), forming all in total a prosperous a quasi-Greek-Dii chiefdom thalassocracy of the North Aegean for many years.
It's main exports were linen and gold from Thassos, as well as fine warriors and ships. It's main trading partners were Sparta, most islands of the Aegean but primarily, Crete, Cyrene in Libya and the Levant.

Individually, Bacchantes let the rule of the tribe fall unto his constituency while he explored the Mediterranean, forming his folk hero persona during this time. As a young man he amalgamated Thracian tribes to unite and rebel against Athens in the Peloponnesian war, and it seems after he has consolidated power on the Thracian coast, he traveled to Athens and stayed there for a time, and to Sparta as well as Arcadia, meeting with Archidamus II, Brasidas, Lysander and Alcibiades, as well as numerous other key figures of what would become the Peloponnesian league. In this way many see him as a major instigator in the dissolving of the Delian league.

Also, During the end of the war, also called the Ionian war, Bacchantes returned more to a role of merchant and captain for allies of the Spartans and for his own estate, however, in the 17th year of the war, word came to Athens that one of their distant allies in Sicily was under attack from Syracuse. The people of Syracuse were ethnically Dorian (as were the Spartans), while the Athenians, and their ally in Sicilia, were Ionian. The Athenians felt obliged to assist their ally. The defeat of the Athenians in their Sicilian expedition was Bacchantes final role in the war, as he and his fleet were instrumental in the saving of Syracuse. It was at this time he transferred and abdicated total political power towards his successor for the Thracians.

Afterwards, he maintained voyages and trading ties with Magna Graecia, specifically the Adriatic sea. He was seen as a pilgrim and great explorer, opting to sail unhindered and free, and bring back to his home palace on Crete and the town of Hephaistia on the isle of Lemnos, of the Dii, magnificent goods and great wealth. He sailed all around the Aegean, Adriatic and Tyrrhenian seas, staying for a time here or there, but always returning to his great manor in Sitia on the east coast of Crete, though it seemed he maintained residence in Gortyn and often visited Cydonia as well. He also frequently visited Canaan and Persia, as well as Egypt and Sardinia.

Retard the Netherlands is already underwater. They fucking built the dykes a thousand years ago. You really think in the current year the Dutch can't come up with mega-dykes to combat further sea rising?

I'd just be a Nazi desu. Just be max-edgelord and conquer and gas Jews and then be executed at Nuremburg. Great fun

Neolithic hunter gatherer

Ancient Egypt under Thutmose III, as a noble of some sort, maybe serving as an official. I can apply my knowledge of mathematics and other stuff, and enjoy life.

What bothers me is that people actually feel this way

See:

not sure if bait but they didnt do much "smithing"

Literally all periods suck. They all scare me. Present sucks too, but at least, when shit hits the fan, I won't see it coming.

Greek or Egyptian sailor from the years of the height of the Roman Empire.

he literally got btfo by selim though

> Selim I entered the Iranian capital of Tabriz in triumph on September 5,[15] but did not linger. The Battle of Chaldiran was of historical significance, as the reluctance of Shah Ismail to accept the advantages of modern firearms and the importance of artillery was decisive.[16] After the battle, Selim, referring to Ismail, stated that his adversary was: "Always drunk to the point of losing his mind and totally neglectful of the affairs of the state"

he got btfo so bad he fell into alcoholism and never lead an army again for his entire life

>wanting to be a sailor at virtually any point in history, much less antiquity

You are aware how regularly ships sank in antiquity, right?
