- I agree.
- Mom was an archeologist, but i think i ignored her too long
- to remember much.
- I had thought that the polynesians went out and settled
- everything else. The thai were pushed to thailand from south china,
- and the Thai are polynesian, not asian.
- Then again, all the earliest archeological stuff was found
- in northern thailand, earlier than in africa (it was discovered again
- by US bombers who thought they were hidden viet cong bases and blew
- the hell outa half of them).
