That's a very good point about recording accurate history. People have a tendency to talk as if they know every detail of what went on in a situation when in most cases, particularly with ancient history, the amount that we do know is dwarfed by what we don't. I suppose we like to take the easy way and feigning knowledge is a powerful way to claim authority on a given matter. Sad that we can't be more honest at times and simply admit what we don't know. I try to be that way myself but I seem to fail miserably almost all of the time.
