Maybe. After all, we are more and more distant from nature, we are building skyscrapers, flying at high altitudes, and large stuff don't impress us so much as a century ago.

Yes, there might be. But in general we are scare of them, because they are so huge.

The red squirrel can nest in conifers , but the grey cannot. But greys carry a disease fatal to the native red. The two should as far as possible stay apart. They do not interbreed. Efforts are being made to suppress grey numbers by contraception. The Isle of Anglesey, where my daughter lives, and where I was yesterday, is a site which has kept the greys at bay.

What Neolithic so cities were like we know not, but collectivist so cities are suggested by the collective efforts needed for megalith building, but wars did occur, as we have found evidence of physical violence in The English neolithic

Catholic Truth Society or St Paul Publishing.

Hmmm. The Encyclopedia Britannica says "Its floor varies considerably in depth, with bores in Queensland averaging about 1,600 feet (500 metres). The daily free discharge of water, from more than 18,000 boreholes, averages 350,000,000 gallons (1,300,000,000 litres), much of which is lost through evaporation and seepage.". Personally I don't really know. It is an interesting topic.

Thank you for all the images!

The in-text image under the third subheading, The Darby land bridge, is of the "walkway along the river going up to the Hot Springs," correct?

Who is the charming animal sentient in the lower-leftmost corner?

The two sentences under the fifth, friendly advise us that "In rare cases, giants can be friendly and helpful. Just don't count on that, although it seems in recent years the level of kindness among giants is on the rise."

Does the kindly trend make itself more and more apparent among modern fairy-tale giants or among most modern fairy-tale and non-fairy-tale giants?

Thank you!

Gray and red squirrels as respective west- and east-pond natives, east- and west-pond naturalizees always fit more with what online and published sources furnish scientifically if not always anecdotally.

Unitedstatesian eastern versus western gray squirrels guard respective arboreal preferences for beech, hickory, oak and walnut versus pine trees.

What might matter most arboreally to British-Isles red squirrels?

Lizzie Wade, in her article It wasn't just Greece: archaeologists find early democratic societies in the Americas March 15, 2017, for Science online, associates democratic government with collective-ruled societies between 500 BCE and 100 BCE.

The above wizzley about Burren island calls to my mind collective action in a harsh environment.

Then Isabelle Huppert's character in L'Avenir (anglicized as Things to come) draws up Jean-Jacques Rousseau explaining that "S’il y avait un people de dieux il se gouvernerait démocratiquement. Un gouvernement si parfait ne convient pas à des hommes."

The aforementioned quote finds the perfectly democratic self-government of godly people inconsistent with human ways.

Ancient Ireland looks, in my hindsight, collective, democratic and godly socio-economically and socio-politically.

Might that be the way ancient Irish societies manifest themselves east-pond-ward?

Or might close inspection suggest the Rousseau-ian conclusion?

Thank you!

English Wikipedia acts as though Burns & Oates are "defunct" since an unknown date.

The aforementioned article, Burns & Oates, considers without detail Bloomsbury Academic (founded Sep. 26, 1986) as successor.

And yet the English Wikipedia article, Bloomsbury Publishing, only enumerates such successes as the Harry Potter series. That page furnishes Bloomsbury Academic among Bloomsbury Publishing acquisitions even as it nowhere gives anything about Burns & Oates or about religion-, spirituality-related publishing.

What might be your second-best choice for publishing houses or particular authors who excel in comparative world religion-related books?

Yes. They would work well.

The grey squirrel is not native to Britain. The red is native fauna over here
