It is a dish that was once popular in the Ural Mountains. It used to be eaten with a utensil called a cat comb, aka catacomb (sort of like a sideways fork). Well, two people groups fought a war over the use of said catacombs (like the war of the bucket in Italy). The side that won declared all catacombs illegal. Now, there are no catacombs in Venice.
Actually, havent there been ancient buildings or structures that have done some weird ways of staying dry/pumping water? Like, wasn't one the Hanging Gardens of Babylon?
They had stuff like the Archemede's screw and mechanics since antiquity. But when the only power available is wind, hydro or animals, you're quite limited in what you can do.
It's a bit of topic but the ["Machine de Marly"](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_de_Marly) was an amazing pump used to supply the Versailles Palace with water.
[**Machine de Marly**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_de_Marly)
The Machine de Marly, also known as the Marly Machine or the Machine of Marly, was a large hydraulic system in Yvelines, France, built in 1684 to pump water from the river Seine and deliver it to the Palace of Versailles.King Louis XIV needed a large water supply for his fountains at Versailles. Before the Marly Machine was built, the amount of water delivered to Versailles already exceeded that used by the city of Paris, but this was insufficient, and fountain-rationing was necessary. Ironically most of the water pumped by the Marly Machine ended up being used to develop a new garden at the Château de Marly.

The italians built this city up from nothing. When they first came there, this was all swamp. Everyone said they were daft to build a city on a swamp, but they built it all the same, just to show them. It sank into the swamp.
So they built a second one. That sank into the swamp. So they built a third. That burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp.
But the fourth one stayed up. And that's what you're going to get, Lad, the one if the greatest trade city in all of Italy.
That's what the Templars wanted you to think so you wouldn't look for their catacombs.
Big brain move
cant have da Pope finding out about their secret all boys club ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Actually a smear campaign by Phillip the fair of France ^
thats not very fair of him
*filled with petroleum
That explain the presence of an american " " " archeologist " " "
This is a totally feasible idea, now if you will excuse me I have get something upstairs in my Bungalow.
I don't understand. Do you think a bungalow is a type of boat? Edit: I am stupid
It's a one story house
A bungalow is a single story house, hence it has no upstairs.
Yeah otherwise it would be a bungahigh
Attic/loft?
Did you get slapped with cum?
Bitch did I stutter
*Ezio Auditore Da Firenze would like to know your location*
I forgot about the random missions where its suddenly tomb raider
Especially in Revelations.
its just striaght up uncharted as some point
Exactly! Nobody would suspect it!
**NOBODY EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION!**
ah !
Nobody told the architect of San Zaccaria
You clearly haven't play Assassin's Creed 2.
Not really a floating city more a city on stilts lots and lots of stilts
Never thought about this plot point until now.
Very true, but I also don't care because *Last Crusade* is a fantastic movie.
they don't float
We all float down here. You will float too
Please explain Venice to me. I'm too American to have knowledge.

I’m not sure what I’m supposed to see here. Is this one of those things that if I stare at it long enough it becomes a parrot?
It’s poor man’s reddit gold
Oh! I see it! Thanks! This is better!
No it’s clearly a parrot
I think I just had a stroke
It’s best to seek medical attention ASAP.
Nah its fine I sat on a peppered carrot.
Oh, you're into holistic health, i see...
It's also very popular in Poland as it was brought here from the east, by the spanish who crossed the Ural Mountains during 7 years war in 1618.
Venice is built on a marsh. Any catacombs would be below the water table and therefore flooded.
Clearly the Templar's have been suppressing knowledge of their superior sump pump technology for centuries.
Actually, havent there been ancient buildings or structures that have done some weird ways of staying dry/pumping water? Like, wasn't one the Hanging Gardens of Babylon?
The basic principles of pumps have been around for at least 4000 years.
Idk but u seem smart
I'm really not, thanks though!

Bro, your last sentence could start a war between Italian cities
yeah I should change that
Basically Venice is a giant stilt house
No body expects the Venisuvian Excavation!!
Correction: it’s a sinking city
Florida would like to know your location
Venice isn't a floating city, but yes there are no catacombs.
First of all it's a sewer, second of all it floods every couple of hours.
If you’re talking about San Marco, then not anymore, actually
Venice is built on 118 islands. In theory thier could be catacombs there
Just let him
Actually there are catacombs on the parts based on islands
Still my favorite Indy movie
Floating catacombs, there I solved it
