As chronicled in your researcher's journal as I researched my history of early lifestyles in South Asia...
Finished up the handful of secondary sources I wanted to look at about
now. Only one was useful, and I've mentioned it. One other would have
been useful; it was done well for its time. But I'd already looked at
all her archaeological and written ancient sources and more, and her
work is old enough that more archaeology and more translation has been
done since then, so her conclusions were based on too few sources so
would have just messed me up. Just started on my first Chinese source
(translated, yes) for an ancient outsider's perspective.
Also feeling much more peaceful about the German question. I'm learning
things I think the textbook should have already taught me, and things
are making more sense. One of my graduate degrees is in education so it
really really annoys me to have poor teachers!
