Is there really a difference? It's like, if pre-Roman John as with regards to Pellinore, was a Pict, and not a Roman, in as to whether Uther and/or Arthur were Romans, then mightn't one aver that not all roads lead to Rome? In the, "mists of time"? Weren't the Romans just initially savages? If Perseus, Bellerophon, and his winged horse killed the Chimera, and George a dragon, do we really have ten fingers and toes? So, is it so unlikely that Jericho is a cultural cross-roads?
