Marie Rouensa is my 7th Great Grandmother on my father's French family side. I am interested in any other information about her life. I have seen her will.
Thanks so much Mary Beckett Shelley Frank

2010-08-15T08:22:52.740-04:00

I agree. I don't think the written sources support the idea that standards of living 'crashed'. The one exception might be education, and perhaps sanitation later on.

And thank you for writing up your thoughts on this book. Very helpful, Curt.

Thanks for the link Pam - I found Wells and Ward-Perkins a bit extreme - in opposite directions. But they both provide some decent information, especially on archaeology. I'm just not high on their conclusions - not convinced standards of living, economic complexity, etc. fell back to prehistoric levels or that they didn't fall much, if at all.

Well Alice, if you ever want to write up a bit of archeology, let me know. I think everyone who drops by here is always open to learn more.

I rather imagine that this is there first shot at trying to place this building in 'the historical flow'. So, of course, nothing is certain.

Could you point readers and myself to any pertinent books?

2010-06-12T07:59:11.633-04:00

Can you be sure that the Gabii "palace" has to do with Sextus? His predecessor as a Gabine ruler was an Antistius Petro and thus perhaps the owner of the s.c. palace. If Sextus is believed as having been real, Roman history also calls him an usurpator by treachery and murder.

If you click on the "READ MORE" button, you will be taken to a nice National Geographic article which will explain it all.

But in essence what it will talk about is that historians and scientists ignored evidence that was readily available in the form of art. Evidence that indicates that there was a large obstructing hedge around Stone Henge.

I believe the JAMA article sited Kohler II disease which has to do with the a metatarsal bone, not the Navicluar bone which is Kohler I disease. Which one is it that Tutankhamun had?

I've been amazed Sean, at the quality of finds that have been uncovered recently --by amateurs and professionals alike. A few more years of this pattern of discoveries and it's likely our entire view of early British history will be revised.

Thanks for airing these artefacts. People forget that, while blockbuster digs are being carried out across the Middle East, Africa and the Americas, Britain continues to throw up some of the world's best treasures.
