Mistakes In History Part 1, Ancient and Medieval History

There has been many mistake said by many teachers, philosophers, and scientists.  I'll be taking a few part to talk about the common misconceptions made by these people.

• In Medieval times, people were said to live to the age 30.  This is a large fall from the recent facts.  New technology and new bodies have proven people die around the age 64, that is if you got to the age 21 alive.
• Vikings, despite popular theory, likely did not wear horns on their helmets. I know, I'm sad about this just as much as you. 

  

  I call this a lie. It does not taste like cake.

• Medieval Europeans actually did believe the Earth was round, as the theory had been created by Aristotle and Play-doh, I mean Plato.
• Columbus never reached any where that is called the United States of America, and, if the Americas had not existed, he and his crew would have ran out of supplies and would have never made it to India.
• Pilgrims did not have the tall, black hats that they are commonly pictured with.  They actually were short, but were mostly black.  They also didn't have buckles on them.

Now you've learned that everything you learn about history is fake and school is nothing but a pile of lies. Now have a good day!
