Description
Thanks Ross for sending him an article by JP Cardamatis, says modern Greek scholarship is ludicrously bad and that the Greeks are unwilling to admit that their country has declined. Early references to fever are very vague, he has no doubt that malaria fell like a blight on Attica about 430 BC and that it contributed to their decline
