    People who traveled usually did it in large groups, commonly called hoards.
 Hordes?

    Prietess? What kind of priestess?
Some priestesses like those of Baal were HotToTrotters, aka temple prostitutes.

    The archaeology pages on Facebook talk about any item being “ritual” (it’s become a joke) so calling her a priestess makes sense!
Now the British trend is to decide that a skeleton is a migrant or from Africa because it supports current thoughts on immigration.

    I was in Norway years ago (1979) at a language camp. Went on a hike as a group and came across this old guy on the trail. The Norwegian language instructors had a hard time talking with him - couldn’t understand him.
He lived in the valley in some remote hut, and was hiking up the trail in worn-out sneakers with some plastic grocery bags and goods from the small town at the base of the valley. He smiled and laughed at us with our heavy boots and packs.
The instructors told us how he had probably never been outside this small valley, and some valleys have their own dialect.

    The recent findings that some ancient or medieval remains actually came from distant places, but the only two I've had flak about here on FR were Africans.

    Lol! Except my nick is because I thought the name was cute and so named my cat.
A favorite cat, though.

    That picture has survived really well from the Bronze age.
She could have ushered in the iron age.
