I think you both have a point - From where we stand today, it's the saved history that we now share together that we have to go off of. But it's good to acknowledge that the history we have was written by the "winners" and there were plenty of discoveries from other civilizations that have been destroyed.
Indeed. The only way to rectify the errors that got us here is by sharing information and spreading awareness of what was changed/lost...and I don't think being hostile towards the people who are taking an interest in a topic over their cultural history really helps that along...
Agreed, no need for hostility!
