I fully confess to a gleeful laugh the first time Cajeiri's POV appeared in the novels just because my brain automatically connected Ilisidi's ear-oriented discipline to that smack across the ear Banichi gave Bren in the first novel after he'd drunk the tea ... it was, to me, an aha! that 'nichi-ji had, just for a moment, dropped from his usual professional control into instinctive parenting mode with his charge (quite understandable ... IMO the atevi equivalent of a human parent reaching the "you're going to be okay I'm going to kill you for doing that" stage) ;-) |

But that of course puts a whole other spin on the bit with Tillington in the most recent book. 9 year olds arguing in a strange language, but not? |

Archaeologists study ancient societies also by looking at their fossilized feces and bathroom habits. Tells you a lot about socialization and social structure. Science fiction often acts as a sort of thought experiment about future/alien/alternative societies, but for some reason, consistently leaves out this crucial issue of bodily-waste disposal. I appreciate :cherryh: for being one of the very few to even mention the issue. |

I believe this is how they disproved the theory that slave labor built the Great Pyramids. Slaves Didn't Build the Great Pyramids |

Fascinating article, but I do not recall reading anything about poop in it. Lots of meat and bread, but no poop. No boobies either, for that matter. |

On the other hand, human waste fossils have been used to prove cannibalism: http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v407/...l/407074a0.html |
