Time Travel Question 35: Ancient History XVI and Earlier
These Questions are the result of suggestions from the previous iteration.
This category may include suggestions made too late to fall into the correct earlier time grouping. Basically, I'd already moved on to human history, but I'd periodically get a pre-homin suggestion, hence the occasional random item waaay out of it's time period, rather than reopen the category.
In some cases a culture lasted a really long time and I grouped them by whether it was likely the later or earlier grouping made the most sense with the information I had. (Invention ofs tend to fall in an earlier grouping if it's still open. Ones that imply height of or just before something tend to get grouped later, but not always. Sometimes I'll split two different things from the same culture into different polls because they involve separate research goals or the like).
Please add new suggestions below if you have them for future consideration. All cultures and time periods welcome.

Bronze age dates are so funny. I know in my head these are all BC, but hearing that Pharoah Senusret I erected a great Obelisk and dedicated a new temple at Karnak in 1941 is just kind of funny
"Great Pharoah, it is terrible! They just bombed Pearl Harbor!"

the most unrealistic part of steven universe is that the zoomans speak and understand modernized english.
#ok so pink diamond was 'shattered' around 5000 years ago and rose/pink had the idea to save humans around 6000 years ago.#so that's a huge timeframe for the zoo to be made#let's simplify it down to 5500 years ago#around this time humans had barely even formed the wheel let alone a writing system.#it was literally the end of the stone age#going off this then the most likely languages the zoomans would actually speak would be greek egyptian sumerian hebrew sanskrit tamil#chinese arabic and aramaic.#notice how not a single one of them is even a romance language let alone a germanic romance language?#the zoomans would not speak english. PERIOD.#I can get behind even homeworld gems speaking English bc their bodies already adapt to the gravity of a planet automatically. maybe they#also automatically adapt to the main language of whatever lifeform is near them at that time#however.#english did not exist when pink was colonizing the planet or when she made the zoo. the *building blocks* for english did not even exist ye#so no#there is no explanation that actually makes sense even IF you give it the benefit of the doubt#it is not believably unrealistic either.#it's just plain unrealistic#bro imagine how cool it would be if they showed up and the zoomans spoke a combination of different ancient languages mixed WITH gemlish?#ik it's asking a lot but#:(((( i hate when aspects of fantasy/scifi are just so out of the realm of possible that it takes you right out of the immersion.#steven universe

“The idea that we inherited from the Victorians, that it was all done to keep a dead body just as it was in life, is not right,” said Campbell Price, a leading Egyptologist whose book will accompany the exhibition. “It is flawed, and we now believe it was intended to steer them towards divinity.”

A 3,000-Year-Old Egyptian Amulet Discovered on Field Trip in Israel
The group's leader calls the find 'the dream of every amateur archaeologist.'
Students on a field trip hosted by the Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA) in Azor, five miles southeast of Tel Aviv, witnessed archaeology in action when the group’s leader Gilad Stern happened upon a 3,000-year-old amulet.
Stern was guiding eighth grade students on the IAA’s third annual expedition, educating them about archaeological finds around Azor and beyond, when he saw what first looked like a lost toy on the ground. “An inner voice said to me, ‘Pick it up and turn it over,’” Stern told the Jerusalem Post. “I was astonished: it was a scarab with a clearly incised scene, the dream of every amateur archaeologist. The pupils were really excited!”
The amulet is sculpted in the shape of a dung beetle, an insect regarded throughout ancient cultures as an all-powerful creator god for embodying both decay and regeneration, as it incubates its eggs in the waste of other animals. The amulet’s flat face features two figures: one with an elongated head, evocative of the Egyptian pharaoh’s crown, who appears to bestow power on the other slightly bowed figure.
Based on the scene, Amir Golani, a senior research archaeologist at the IAA, has dated the amulet to the late Bronze Age (1,500–1,000 B.C.E.), “when the local Canaanite rulers lived (and sometimes rebelled) under Egyptian political and cultural hegemony.” Golani reckons this seal of power either fell from the hands of an important official passing through, or was buried on purpose. “It’s difficult to determine the exact original context,” he said.
“It may have been placed on a necklace or a ring [and] is made of faience, a silicate material coated with a bluish-green glaze,” Golani added, noting these Egyptian relics abound across Israel—though not every scarab was actually made in Egypt. The IAA said the caliber of workmanship on this example was “not typical for Egypt and may represent a product of local craftsmen” emulating the popular Egyptian aesthetic, according to Times of Israel.
“The find of the scarab, in the framework of a field tour with pupils participating in the tour-guide course, is symbolic in that the pupils were gaining archaeological knowledge and at the same time contributing to our archaeological heritage,” IAA director Eli Escusido remarked. “This cooperation is truly moving, as we are working toward connecting communities with their cultural heritage.”

Medieval Moon Knight AU?
Like, what if you had the events of the tv series but set in a medieval fantasy-type world?
Like you have the "Sir" Steven Grant, an awkward yet charming man who somehow managed to stumble into the kingdom and earn a position among the king's court due to his rather extensive yet eclectic knowledge of "foreign magicks" and who believes he might be cursed with a desire to walk while his mind dreams?
Marc, the actual knight (or rather former knight, that is) who truly was cursed after meeting his once ally's treacherous blade during an ill-begotten crusade in a faraway land. Now nothing more than the ghostly spector of a man, he serves the Lord Of The Night as his fist and justice.
And the mysterious Jake Lockley, a quiet stablehand who seems to know more than he lets on.
