Women Gladiators - new evidence discovered

[Rob Schaap]

There was a whopper of an earthquake in the Med around 1450 BC, which
submersed an island called Thera and probably did for Minoan Crete, too.
Early speculators about fabled Atlantis thought Thera might have been their
mark, but not so.

Cheers,
Rob.
