Many years ago I came across a site on the Chernobyl nuclear disaster written by an Ukrainian writer who studied it's history and went frequently to the exclusion zone.
She appealed for translators to various languages in order to make her message understandable for as many people as possible.
Including Portuguese, of which there were already a few chapter's translated by a person from Brazil (easy to recognize if you are native user).
Who, meanwhile, had stopped working on it.
And so, it was I who translated for Portuguese about the final two thirds of the site.
Including this chapter about one of Elena's other activities: military archeology.
The Serpent's Wall is, primarily, about a region in the outskirts of Kiev that has been employed since very long as foundation for the edification of static defenses.
At least since the time of Mongol invasion, as we can see by the first findings mentioned.
Not surprisingly the bulk of the chapter ends up being WWII's.
Because of the time span, however, I chose placing this at the root of Section H instead of the WWII Drawer.
Those with any interest about the Chernobyl disaster, or the issue of nuclear energy should also read those chapters.
But please don't rush to read it in Portuguese just because I translated it to...
