the evidence is infinitesimal compared to what we have for Fritz

All this is very true, but there is the occasional research gold still. Also, for the Romans: cook books!

I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have stayed in salon this long if you weren't such a rigorously critical thinker. :)

Imagine me blushing. I definitely have been called a gossipy sensationalist far more often. <3, also, I am in awe of your detective research skills, language acquiring abilities and, to quote Hamilton lyrics, top notch brain in general!

Indeed! I think there is a responsible way to do ancient history, and it involves cookbooks. :D

That's why our band name salon name is Gossipy Sensationalists With Scholarly Instincts! They're not mutually exclusive, as I myself prove.

Oh, same! Rigorous critical thinking is necessary, not sufficient. ;)
