After all, if they can't know how it was done, how on earth can you claim it was a myth, in effect implying that you can separate correct accounts from incorrect accounts? How can you possibly know that? Do you have some special insight that archaeologists lack?

If we cannot separate correct from incorrect acounts, then we are probably in "myth territory."

But why can you do that, and archaeologists not? And if they can, upon what basis do you rest your claim that their accounts are "myth"?
