Hello Kevin, and I too just joined. Iโve been โbinge watchingโ your YouTube channel and am delighted to support your efforts via Patreon. Your details about ancient technology fascinate me. I especially enjoy your guided tours of medieval sites. They make the history come alive. Thank you for producing all of your content.
