<p>So true, so true. The Christian theocracy would have us believe that all civilization started around the Mediterranian area and, of course, Israel. Anything beyond that region either never happened or they were just a bunch of Godless Barbarians! LOL Did you know that one of the meanings for barbarian is wanderer? Which makes one wonder, when the seven "lost tribes" of Israel were wandering, were they then considered barbarians?<br>
The only, fairly recent, movie I can recollect about pre-Medieval Times Celtic peoples was BRAVEHEART with Mel Gibson.<br>

My point was that literacy and intelligence should be held to the standards of the times and peoples of those times. There are those who would hold that all mankind has descended from people who were naked humanoid creatures who were victims of their times and circumstances. I prefer to think that we are the descendants of the ones who figured out how to make it back to their caves in one piece!<br>
