OMG is this (re-)post timely: The upcoming season is all Sintashta all the time ;)

I honestly don't understand why my Feed isn't filled with rabid discussions of the Sintashta every day. I mean, they invented the chariot & helped sew the seeds for two major world religions (Hinduism & Zoroastrianism). What's not to be excited about(!?)

Just sayin' ;)
