one thing about the mudflood that caught my attention was the orphaned children. apparently in the late 1700s there was a massive influx of children sent to a America from different parts of Europe.

one of the mysteries is where did these kids come from and what happened to there parents and family's.

i believe there is connection to the children and the underground catacombs in Paris https://duckduckgo.com/?q=paris+catacombs&t=brave&iax=images&ia=images

im sure alot of you know about this place but for those who dont a short summary goes like this

The catacombs were old mines used to store dead bodies when the largest cemetery in Paris became over filled and caused problems https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catacombs_of_Paris#Paris'_cemeteries

at first glace the story is passable, they needed a quick solution to get ride of corpses so they tossed em in the old mines and just kinda forgot about it as time passed.

but when you look at the numbers its starts to get fucking weird.

theres something like 6 million skeletons down there. the total population of Paris at this time was half a million (500 000)

the population of all of France was 20-30 million.

this makes no sense. there was 12x as many dead bodies moved during this time then the entire population of the city.

how did they do this, this would have required untold levels of man power just to do this. if they moved 1000 bodies a day this would take 16 years to simply move them. (according to them it was mostly done in 2 years)

now take into account that these bodies weren't just thrown down there. they had all there bones separated and placed in a specific manner. they built weird fucking structures completely out of bone, covered the walls in skulls and vertebras, dare I say in a weird ritualistic manner.

is this strange to anyone else
