Well, that's what our family story has been: once you get across the Red Sea, turn left and head up to this other big sea, keep going along the shore to Beirut, ask for the only bookshop there, and then get your maps from that bloke. He even had maps in Neanderthal, for my mob !
That story has been passed down absolutely unchanged for at least fifty thousand years. My grand-dad assured us that it was true, just like we were each born under a cabbage. Well, boys under cabbages, girls under strawberries.
