[QUOTE="Helldritch, post: 7973856, member: 6855114"] He died about 10 or 15 years ago (at the young age of 75 or so) and didn't speak English (but could speak latin, greek and arabic... go figure...). He mainly said that it must have had roots in deep dark age near the fall of the roman empire. It was no longer used in the late medieval period but there was rumors about it. Of course I am citing this from memory. It was a long time ago as my University days are long gone. I just turned 50 today... But talking with you about the medieval period is enlightening. What was a truth 30 years ago can be proven wrong today. And what is true today might get proven wrong in 30 years from now. Who knows? [/QUOTE]
