preserved almost it was like almost built rebuilt it was uh you know repaired and then put back in place and then they kind of finished the burial there right after the slope slide had happened previously um whereas here it looks like stuff's been knocked knocked about um things like this so yeah it's a slight problem when you're kind of looking at um looking at this site

But yeah, there's a whole load of stuff here. I mean, even the floor, some of the floors of the new enclosures, they are made. Sometimes they're carved flat bedrock. I mean, it's perfectly level as well. I mean, perfectly level. But sometimes they use terrazzo, which is like this lime cement. Terrazzo? Yeah. Really? Because officially the Romans only used the first people invented it officially.

But they found it in use in abundance here. I mean, serious abundance. I mean, hundreds of square meters of terrazzo is being used. And so what that means is they were heating up limestone up to 850 degrees somehow. And then it would turn into this more powdery form, which they could then use, which is quite toxic kind of whole process. And that melts limestone? Well, it breaks it down, yeah.

Copper. Yeah, I'm not sure about copper, but I think it's probably less than that, I would imagine. Less than that, huh? Yeah. But when it comes to creating – oh, my God. 1,900 degrees Fahrenheit. Yeah, okay. That's pretty hot. But they were making this cement, basically, and it was waterproof. It was like this perfect kind of – so they were filling in gaps. They were making floors. Wow.

They were doing this whole thing with it. Yeah, it's pretty impressive.
