0 00 Carbon-14 dating reveals that the megalithic monuments in 00 are nearly 2,000 years 00 older than any of their 01 b 01 i 00 supposed 02 i 02 b 00 00 Mediterranean 01 u 00 02 u 00 predecessors. 02 br

00 Do we need 01 i 00 supposed 02 i 00 or 01 i 00 supposedly. 02 i 00 I know that Mediterranean is a noun but here it's with 01 i 00 predecessors 02 i 00 so doesn't that make it (Mediterranean) an adjective. 02 br
00 For example. I have a red Italian car. (Is't 01 i 00 Italian 02 i 00 modifuing 01 i 00 car 02 i 00 ). 02 br
