Jack, as much as I think Uwe is taking his scepticism a bit too far at
times, I still appreciate his comments because it shows me how else
one is able to think about these topics. I do not agree with him on
everything (he and I did have our private exchanges on methodology).
But nonetheless, it is too easy in a discussion of archaeology to
build a trap for yourself and fall in it; at least it helps to be
aware of this possibility. I do think that conclusions on the
nonmaterial cultural background can be taken farther than Uwe is
willing to go, he sticks too close to the purely material, but that's
his style. It is not a bad one, as long as we can differ.
