In the off chance Hank sees this, thank you for helping me develop my love for curiosity. The search for knowledge never stops! (And these scishow videos being great resources won’t stop either!) In nursing school I showed my microbiology professor this channel, I hope she still uses certain videos to teach her lectures.

It is very rare at our latitude to have a bog and is studied by many of our universities, in fact there are labs analyzing the various gases that are emitted and other conditions that exist. I also included all all of the explanation stops along the way. It's a very interesting site as you literally walk on a boardwalk over the bog. Our bog is over 7000 years old and was created after the last ice age

In fact, animals would start to rot slightly even without bacteria or other things accelerating the process, as all cells have those enzymes to Break Down organic material.

QuikVidGuy Prehistory ends much earlier in places with writing. So for example, you could argue prehistory ends in the Middle-East with the advent of cuneiform around 3000BC but in Europe it continues up until the Roman conquest, or atleast till Greeks start writing about us. In Oceania for example prehistory holds until the european colonisation period despite Oceanic cultures having some of the longest and most unbroken oral histories, like the aboriginals who were pretty much telling the same stories and distilling the same culture for ten thousand years (really an example of colonial bias still prevailing in history and archeology :/ ) But yes as the other fella says its a very loose term amongst academics. (Plus theres some evidence i the danube of pre sumerian writing forms so we'll see what the future holds.)

There's a permanent exhibition of bog bodies at the National Museum of Ireland on Kildare Street in Dublin. I've been there a few times. It's all done very respectfully, with each body in a little alcove. The labels and information are outside, so you can read that first; then, when you go in, it's just you and the body, no distractions. Quiet and contemplative. Not really creepy, though I suppose it could be. Depends how you look at it. Seamus Heany referenced Tollund Man (and some imagery from the French Revolution, having the sacrificial victim riding a tumbrel), in a metaphor for senseless violence in Northern Ireland during the Troubles.

Magnesium and Calcium both form ions which do not engage in photolysis with water, nor do they form aquo complexes, which are acidic. This means that they can't be the explanation why bogs are acidic. I know this because I have my final exam in chemistry next Monday. Furthermore, I'd doubt that no bacteria live in bogs at all. I mean, some of those buggers live in contaminated reactor cooling water, or in acidic pools in the Yellowstone National Park. No matter where on earth (besides in a volcano maybe), bacteria are around, they might be the most resilient lifeforms we know.

The decomposition rate is just much slower.
