Ancient theme is in the same bind as Ninja. Gets buried in .castle every

Mecha is an example of a non-Lego sub-theme that already has its own group.

But Ninja is an established LEGO (sub)theme.  Ancient also usually pops up
in .build.arch (I'm assuming you are refering to greek, roman ect.)

I grant you Ninja is a real subtheme. Since mecha live over in .build (for
some reason I thought it was in .space) then a more sensible place for
ancient is .build.ancient. Yes, by ancient I mean that greek and roman
thing, though there is an awful lot of egyptian going round, and that ninja
cross-over thing!

There is a lot more traffic on ancient in .castle than anywhere else
(build.contests isn't getting any lively talk, just a lot of announcements).
K.K.'s "castle" was crossposted to .castle and .build.arch (I think he
missed .build.contests) but I'm not aware of any other talk in build.arch.

It just goes to show that ancient is scattered around. I've got a list of at
least two dozen fans, by the way.
