Who can know what happened back then ? All we have are these ancient scriptures and dusty archaeological digs to give us an idea ?? Its sure for me that we are not at all informed on our past but then most people dont really care sadly as the only thing that concerns them is today and maybe....tomorrow even !! I am glad and happy to see that there are still people out there like you @tremendospercy that are asking questions and researching this !! upvoted fascinating post mate )
