Time is a strange thing…

When Plato was teaching his students in Ancient Greece, the once-mighty Sumerian civilization had already been in ruins for 2,673 years—a distant past even to him.

To put that into perspective in respect to today:

💡 2,673 years ago today, Ancient Greek city-states were just getting started.

💡 Plato himself wouldn’t be born for another 200 years. Plato is closer in history to us than he was to the Sumerians.

History is layered, it's vast, and mind-blowing. 🌎⏳

What’s a historical time gap that blows your mind?
