📋 About This Mod
DESCRIPTION - WHAT IT DOES
• Replaces bucket01 with an high-poly Etruscan Wine Bucket.
• It's a bucket. Comes in 1k, 4k, or 8k.
• High Poly at almost 50k triangles.
• History Lesson for people who like learning Okay so if you're reading this, you're probably unhinged like I am so lets get into it. This particular bucket was found in 1936 by Karl Alfred Gustawasson and Bertil Wallden in Sweden. It's actually part of a large collection containing two swords, buckets and other small objects sacrificed in a ritual inside a fen (a wetlands that has peat and is usually fed by nutrient rich groundwater). These items are from sometime between 550-500 BCE putting them at around 2,500 years old give or take a few. Historically these would have been used for things like wine and mead or other alcoholic drinks. This particular bucket would have been shipped from Italy, home of the Etruscan civilization. At around 3,000 years ago this civilization was flourishing in western Italy, spreading up and down almost the entire coast. Through trade with Celts and the Greeks, Etruria grew to be a powerful federation of multiple city states. Today, their artifacts are found throughout Europe, Africa and the Middle east due to their trade routes in the Mediterranean sea.
