Are Joachim Burger and Daniel Wegmann hiding something?

Davidski: Warriors from at least two different populations fought in the Tollense Valley battle. Davidski wanted the genotype data but on that... the lead authors, Joachim Burger and Daniel Wegmann, aren't replying to my emails.

Despite them Davidski was able to do as they did with the Dead Sea Scrolls in the early 1990s: he reverse-engineered these data from the ("BAM") files. Davidski couldn't get us attire, weapons, circumstances of death from the BAM. But Davidski can tell us that wholly separate ethnoi were at this bridge: I2, R1a, R1b. Contradicting the Burger-Wegmann paper. Entirely.

I think that how the Dead Sea researchers (didn't) handle their data up to 1990 was a scandal. I think that Strugnell and Allegro and their team delayed us all - Christian and Jew alike - a full generation.

Burger and Wegmann - or the researchers under them - need to get us this information, or at least to divulge some status on how they are collating this information.

Failing that, we need to know what they're hiding and why they think they need to hide it. Maybe we need to ask the German government.

MOAR 10/28: Noncombatants included porters. Armies travel with porters of course. But women don't do the heaviest porting, and children get ported. And even male porters don't fight; so why kill them, rather than tell them Meet Yer New Boss? Whatever happened at the actual battle was one-sided - if there even was a battle; of the 145 corpses identified so far (often southern Europe) at least the porters were plain murdered. The victims may have been a merchant caravan and those, usually, are foreign. Assuredly that would explain why so few drank milk.
