paddymac BS: Rewriting prehistory - new dates (45) RE: BS: Rewriting prehistory - new dates 01 May 06

The discussion regarding abrupt changes of or within cultures brings to mind Joseph Campbell's notion that mythologies (a significant element of what I think we refer to as culture) exist to help people adapt to/with the environment (primarily natural, but also cultural as with emigrant/imigrant communities)) in which they exit. Heavy stuff, but fascinating too.
