@PugJesus grain prices were influenced by wars...
Oh no, Elamites are at war with Canaan. The prices of grain will skyrocket
I should buy contracts representing future options to buy said grain at a predetermined price

I’m more interested in low-grade copper price than grain.
I fucking hated history in school because it just boiled down to remembering dates of coronations and wars. and writing pages and pages of fucking essays, as an EFL person.

It did.
I will be interested. Sauce?
… I was actually hoping someone would teach me tbqh
Is there a chance that ancient mesopotamian grain prices lead to wars?

I always thought the societal and political reasons for war and how their outcome shaped society and politics was way more interesting (and probably important) than the wars themselves.
