Everyone's got their own and everyone thinks theirs is right, but at some point it's all mythology and should be recognized as such. Indy's right. the stuff belongs in a museum. With conservators attending to it day & night so it can be preserved for generations. Many cultures represented in museums are no longer with us, but in the case of the ones that are there should be more than a tip of the political hat to the Indigenous peoples from whence the goodies came. (cuz they're still around thinkin' theirs is right.) [ Edited by: spy-tiki on 2003-09-26 20:43 ]
