Ancient statue I found near my place 1) Where are you located? (Which city are you in or near?) 2) Are there any ruins or old buildings or sites near you? What cultures do they belong to? 3) We really need a clearer photo, and please photograph all sides of the object. |

Epoch of an item marked with anchor symbol with the letters N and D Notre Dame actually translates to "Our Lady" not "Our Mother", sorry. |

Epoch of an item marked with anchor symbol with the letters N and D This is a souvenir of someone's first communion - the ND probably stands for Notre Dame, "Our Mother", which is a Roman Catholic reference to the Virgin Mary - and the name of a few dozen churches, cathedrals and chapels dating back to that period in francophone countries worldwide. The logo is probably of the church, parish or bishopric... will require some shoe leather to run that down. |

U.S. Marine Corps and Why does the Navy’s army need its own air force? Ehh. Things have changed - the emphasis is now on Special Forces for targeted missions to begin combat operations. The CIA SAD are the first combatants into any given theater nowadays, followed closely by units from the Special Forces from the various branches for specific, targeted strikes. The first conventional forces on the ground in both Afghanistan and Iraq were the Marines. |

Military training in the Hijaz during early Islamic era Umm. Arab tribalism is utterly unlike Native American tribalism, and the Rashidun army was recruited largely from urbanized and well established Arabian city-states, not mercenary nomads. |

Why is our planet called Earth? @jwenting - Standard mandarin isn't the native language of a very large section of Chinese speakers - and there are a ton of Mandarin subdialect "mother tongues." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/… |
