[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 401472, member: 2844"]Nice Aaron, I had never heard of the [SIZE=4]Marajoara Civilization. Their ancient ceramics are beautiful. When I googled them I came across this Brazilian info: "It's strange that Marajó Island, can be homeland for a advanced people, it has almost no relief and is only about 100m above sea level." So I looked out the window. Flat as a pancake, and 18 metres above sealevel. Of course we are hunter-gatherers, of jewellery and antiques for instance. We have no advanced weapons to hunt with, just a screen, a mouse or even worse, touchpad. We pay in the most primitive way, no coins or bills, but using some symbols on a small card, which seem to be some kind of mnemonic system.:hilarious::hilarious:[/SIZE][/QUOTE]
