Sort of \"Hannibal Project\" ?

This may already be known to some of us here
(though my search amounted to nothing :mrgreen: )

Wished I could be there.
BTW : Anyone who knows easy accessible informations about this man's research ?

Sponsored by National Geographic Society in 2007-2008, the Stanford Alpine Archaeology project has been tracking Hannibal's intrepid march in 218 BCE with an army and elephants over the Alps since 1996.

I think that sentence could use some editing. At first I thought Stanford had an army and elephants in the Alps for the past 16 years.

But the project sounds pretty cool!

hock: hock: hock:
WHAT !?
You say Stanford DID not have an army up there ? :???: :roll:

O.K. , seriously , that finer irony of that english translation escaped my view. :wink:
But yes indeed -- that project deserves wider recognition.
(I'm not sure but they might have done some minor coverage on german TV -- I'll go after that as time allows)

Meanwhile
