Since it seems to me, that many people interested want
FreeCiv to be authentic, we have to do it.

Since we want to avoid censorship without encouraging radicalism,
it is necessary to provide historical background knowledge.

If I read that people on this list are euphoric about having
read that there is domestication since 9000 B.C. it would be
great to have a Freecivclopedia.

(BTW  The knowledge of domestication was part of my education
      at school...)
(BTW' I believe that I have read about much older settlements
      in Turkey [? - but at least Little Asia - I you recognize
      this term - directly translated from my native
      language....)
