The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The span of recorded history is roughly 5,000 years, beginning with the development of Sumerian cuneiform script.
- Ancient history covers all continents inhabited by humans in the period 3000 BC – AD 500.
- The three-age system periodises ancient history into the Stone Age, the Bronze Age, and the Iron Age, with recorded history usually considered to begin with the Bronze Age.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Ancient history article was read about 320,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 86 and blocks with 100: each hit it takes is cut by 40 %.
