You and Orlok are each about the same distance from the 'correct' location.

Geoff's 'somewhere in the middle is actually closer, as Israel is too close to the water.

The correct answer is.....

The earliest recorded reference to bagpipes may be on a Hittite slab from Asia Minor which has been dated to 1000 BC.

Mesopotamia! Opps! You said 2000BC and I said 'go back.' My bad. The 'other back.' The forward one...

So I have no idea who actually should be declared the winner, so who ever has a good question, lay it on! I'm off to sleep, perchance to dream.

I was hoping it was Ancient Egypt. Then I could have brought out the following question:

Who was the most disapproving of the Pharaohs?

Spoiler:
King Tut.

Note also that the Hittite empire collapsed. Coincidence?

Yawn.... G'morning.... I agree. There is no such thing as 'coincidence.' But I always blamed the fall on a lack of good pizza. Tut...

A simple riddle:

Comes as wooden as a tree,
Covered in paint, don't you see,
Makes you laugh, or run and hide,
For it has something dark inside.
