I enjoy Open Culture, which sends all kinds of interesting links on every topic imaginable. It's a free subscription. Every day I just see what's been added, and choose whether or not to look into it.
This came up last week...an animated video of the largest cities on earth since 3000 bc. Check it out if you're interested!
That's a good resource!
ReplyDeleteI stopped it a few times, so many cities I'd never heard of!
DeleteInteresting. Wonder how they got the numbers from the lesser known sites.
ReplyDeleteI guess there are histories out there with the guesses on the numbers.
DeleteBarbara, Very interesting! Bagdad was the first city to reach 1 million...and then it faded and it was several centuries later before any other city reached and passed that level. Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
ReplyDeleteI am glad you enjoyed this.
DeleteThat is neat.
ReplyDeleteYes, I agree!
DeleteThat is absolutely fascinating. I was transfixed.
