The Viking settlers didn't grow much crops IIRC, but they were definately self-sustained. Their society was based on dairy, sheep and hunting/fishing. Much like agriculture in Northern Norway these days, and call me sissy but I don't think it's _warm_ :-) > But not in the Caribbean. No one builds stone temples under water. True. I tried to look it up on google, but only found reference to a Mayan settlement that was in some tidal zone on the East coast of Mexico. I guess nobody would like their settlement to be flooded twice a day either, but are we talking about the same? There are a couple of tectonic fault lines through the Caribbean, though. Could that have something to do with the submersion? Jostein -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
