The reasons why it doesn't get mentioned too often might be interesting .


Do you mean because of the shattering of an illusion of a golden age, or do you mean there was a bias towards a particular sex or age-group that perhaps we might find very unpleasant to imagine?

There is a book by rick schulting, I'd like to get a copy.


I don't know why it gets ignored /glossed over .
Possibly both reasons , for some , certainly the latter , maybe there is a feeling that only johnnie foreigner behaved like that .

I haven't read the Schulting book , lots of papers (written with others ) over the years, which have transformed our understanding of the chronology the period and the condition of crania .
