<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 239017, member: 36"]I think part of it is that America simply isn't that old. We've only been a country a few centuries and there are some towns in some parts of the country that were incorporated within the last 20 years. On the West Coast, old can be 1940s. There are no Roman ruins here, and no one digs up Roman glass in the back yard. Pieces from your Civil War predate ours by close to 300 years. </p><p><br /></p><p>Hmm, now there's a thought - Roundhead musket balls.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
