User:Pliny the Elderberry
I am a French-American resident of Santa Barbara County with a passion for human and natural history. Of particular interest to me are Ancient Egypt, Native American & Indigenous peoples, botany, and the inherent complexities of analyzing and understanding history from the lens of a single cultural tradition. I strive to contribute in a balanced and professional manner, and I am more than happy to receive any constructive input.
