Colin, not erased but vilified so that it won't be mentioned in polite company.

Interesting discussion.
However, some points might be questioned. Shaka third in place behind Stalin & Hitler? In numbers killed? I don't think so! There have been plenty of rulers all over ...

Galloglas;
These remains were discovered some 700m(?yds) West of the fugitives trail which is outside the norm. It is therefore correct to treat the remains according to forensic protocols until t ...
