Seeing as I know some of you sooo loved the game, I hope you all enjoy this next installment of Who Am I?


A seemingly insignificant crusty cheap bronze coin...

370-340 BC
Bronze Unit 14.0mm x 3.35g
Obverse: Head of "That Guy" left.
Reverse: Horse Galloping right.

Who-Am-I?-Part-IV-Ancient-Alien

The Hints:
A Primordial Man...found in pre-history.
Provided as specific skill set to the Greeks.
The son of a famous figure for these people.
If you ask Georgio from Ancient Aliens, hes an alien that flew across the world in his winged chariot. HAHAHA.

Have fun guys, and Happy Doomsday!

Buzyges, flew across the world in a winged chariot giving away the knowledge of Agriculture to the Ancient Peoples.


I still can't believe you beat out Batman, that in itself is a feat!

I really love the Carthage coinage, it really does represent the "undiscovered country" of numismatics.
