Re: ...but does it really "matter" given the state of Humanity?
Nope, never heard of it. I've just watched a lot of Time Team and similar TV shows. I had to Google the Weans. An interesting short read. I got some of the references, but likely missed a lot of US related ones. It started off good but then seemed to head off into amateur sleuth territory, as if it was written by someone with a smattering of archaeological and social history knowledge but certainly no expert. I think fan fiction is probablywhat it most felt like. ie, nearly as bad as my writings :-)
