Two history memes

30 Historical Memes To Remember The Past Is Never Gone, It's Not Even Past

Human history is full of mysteries. There's a lot of things that people have simply forgotten, that have been purposely erased from the record or buried under the sands of time. On Reddit's /r/HistoryMemes, users investigate these topics with the highest degree of intellectual rigor and the most sensitive and scholarly historical practice.

They also make funny memes about the past and how people lived, fought, and worked their ways through life. Whether it's the Roman Empire and when it actually ended (and who can really claim to be the "new Rome") or the theories that ancient aliens constructed pyramids and other monuments around the world, these Redditors are on the case. Historical investigation never stops, and we never stop learning more about the past.

So if you're looking to get in your history memes fix and learn something while laughing a little along the way, this is the right place to do it.
