Troll,
Interesting web page and I have bookmarked it for later detailed perusal. On a quick read through, it does not actually contradict what I said. Although I accept the earlier horned helmets, they are not Vikings, they are Scandinavians; the ethnic identity of Viking is solely reserved for the period c.800 to c.1066.
On a side note, I was advised this evening to ask Roberta Frank about Vikings and horned helmets. Shame I did not have time to hang around and ask, as I believe the resultant apoplexy would have been most amusing.
And, on another side note, I do not doubt that there is a huge body of evidence out there of which I am not aware, so I am willing to be corrected.
Cheers,
Eggbasket

As for Christianity inventing new stuff, don't even get me started. It's interesting when it happened 1000 years ago and the 10th century monastic reform is quite entertaining, as is the later 13th(?) century edict against married priests. But they latest stuff about making the church more up to date just seems daft. Not that it's much different to what went on before, but it's more interesting when you study the history of the church IMO rather than its current affairs.
Don't You mean since 367 AD when Roman Church under imperial orders removed the original 27 books from the (Gnostic)Bible (including the Gospels of Jesus, Mary Magdelene, Phillip, Thomas the Sceptic and Jesus Iscariot-being translated in Switzerland into English, French and German at this minute, will be published in 2007 found in Egypt in the 1950's at Nagi). There were 13 books found in total but the others were burnt by an Egyptian peasant in order to light his fire.

Well, Tim, you really have to see it from my point of view; nothing interesting happened before c.800 AD or after c.1066 AD, except in Scandinavia. Once you get that clear in your head then it all makes sense!!!!!

I spelt the site name wrong it's called Nag-Hammadi, the gospels of Jesus, Mary Magdelene, Philip and Thomas are already translated in partial or full forms in other places. (the serious academic stuff is in mostly difficult to get hold of Theological journals), there are "everyman translations" but watch out for the "mystic", "new age" versions. The gospel of Judas Iscariot was kept locked up in a safe in the US for over 50 years since it's discovery.
They are being translated by a well known (and seriously scientific)religious/theology publication house called The Olea Institution (I hope I've given it the correct title).
