no...I did not read the whole article but it sounds like more of this revisionist stuff about primitives being more noble and all that.
who was it who got in hot water about declaring the Anasazi (sic) and their cannibalism?
or all this talk about no cannibalism in Africa yet we are seeing it even today in west and central African insurgency wars.
now, if science purports that the ancients of western civilization are being discovered to be less civilized, or stole their innovation from non-whites or were more barbaric etc. then being all the more primitive is encouraged.
I trust very little science from any university anymore that has even the most remote social consequence to it. They all seem to declare a desired outcome to suit their always leftist multicultural anti-west/christian/caucazoid bias and then look for the evidence to support that even if they must fabricate.

That was my impression as well. It's the Wonderful World of Disney version of ancient times, built to service some nationalist jingoist political movements. Zahi Hawass, Mark Lehner, et al insist there was never slavery in ancient Egypt.

"who was it who got in hot water about declaring the Anasazi (sic) and their cannibalism?" That was Christy Turner at Arizona State University...He proved it after finding a human corpolite containing human protein, etc.
