Very expansive and interesting stuff, Matt. Being an extroverted intuitive type, I love this helicopter view of millenial history - I was a sucker for the work of Arnold Toynbee as a student - though it turns out he was a Milner protégé, clearly with an agenda.. But I want to quiz you again about the relationship between banking and cults. I have found plenty of info about certain temples being treasuries. And of course buying priesthoods was a clear step in political ambition and achieving power (Gaius J Caesar being pontifex maximus etc etc). But look as I might into the subject of banking and finance in Greece and Rome, scouring some learned tomes for evidence, I am yet to find much at all that specifically links elite, financiers and cults - other than Larouche's work and of course your own. I am in no way discounting it - far from it, I find it a fascinating and very important insight - but I would love find a modern and/or ancient source for this. (Though I accept that its very absence might well be evidence of how well all this has been concealed over the many centuries!) Can you help with sources at all?

Fascinating reading. Filled the gaps in my knowledge. Thank You.
This was really insightful. Thank you so much. I really like learning about the black nobility and how it morphed into the current system.
