                In most historical narratives, there's a familiar element to be found  somewhere. I've never heard of any of this, however! Thank you!
(By  the way, I'm still dying to know what you meant with "the Pishogue's  funeral"! Couldn't find much on the subject and the more I find nothing  on the subject the more intrigued I get!)

                    You are right, El Tel.  I'd never had a glimpse of this history...
                
                the 1600s, eh?  I was thinking that was the time in history when all attentions were focused on "the new world."  Very interesting!  :)
