Interesting

You did that on porpoise

Really nicely laid out report Dave

And currently boiling on holiday down in Cornwall

Due to another rift in the time-space continuum, my two Armenian kings finally had the opportunity to face each other. Tigranes the Lesser was supported by his Parthian patrons, whilst Artaxias had his Persian overlords to assist.

Short report of the battle below. Longer report (split into two parts) available on my website for those (especially in the UK) expecting a wet bank holiday weekend.

The oddity is that if the house burned because of hostile activity, they were arguably pretty incompetent or careless attackers if they left a horse and five sheep/goats to die rather than looting valuable livestock.

It's all codswallop, why bother?

I could carp on about it some more

Nice bit of archaeological science that.  What I did like was the authors don't speculate on why the building burned down or who might have been responsible.  I presume a press release did, however, and that got the CNN coverage.
