Oh, me. I suspected that would wake someone up. {ggg}
As I recall the story of Schliemanns life he was not only accosted intellectually by every academic who didn't share his ambition and insight, but by asst clergy who opposed all digging and searching and anything scientific that might turn up something contrary to church policy. (As in maybe the earth is not the center of the universe and maybe it isn't really flat.) Schliemann fought a great variety of "established and settled facts" as well as "establishments" as he brought the science of Archeology into being.
