A cuneiform clay tablet that has puzzled scholars for over 150 years has been translated for the first time. The tablet is now known to be a contemporary Sumerian observation of an asteroid impact at Köfels, Austria and is published in a new book, 'A Sumerian Observation of the Köfels' Impact Event.' https://phys.org/news/2008-03-cuneiform-clay-tablet.html

I read in a very interesting encyclopedia by a French author that the Lilliputians, who now usually perform in the circus, are the people who lived in the forests of Hungary and were expelled from there. I was extremely surprised by this information. Any ideas about this? I note that Lilliputians are not dwarfs. Dwarfs have a congenital disease and they have a disproportionately developed body, unlike midgets.

I just have Semitic beliefs. You are simply lying.

A cargo cult is an indigenist millenarian belief system, in which adherents perform rituals which they believe will cause a more technologically advanced society to deliver goods. These cults were first described in Melanesia in the wake of contact with allied military forces during the Second World War. Isolated and pre-industrial island cultures that were lacking technology experienced soldiers and supplies arriving in large numbers, often by airdrop. The soldiers would trade with the islanders. After the war, the soldiers departed. Cargo cults arose, attempting to imitate the behaviors of the soldiers, thinking that this would cause the soldiers and their cargo to return. Some cult behaviors involved mimicking the day-to-day activities and dress styles of soldiers, such as performing parade ground drills with wooden or salvaged rifles. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cargo_cult

I asked you to answer. It is now clear. As an anthropologist, you might be interested to know that the capital of the Innuit is in Greenland. Africa's largest city, Lagos. Population of 13 million people.
