beccaelizabethI'm watching something I recorded ages back about 'Inside the Medieval Mind'
there's a bit about dog headed people.
Not werewolves, just regular villages of people who had dog heads.
by some stories St Christopher, the traveller dude, was a dog head man.
... why we bother making up new stories? We find so much weird in the old ones...
the only thing I'd quibble is how he's taking all this as evidence of the Medieval mind
as in, not the now mind.
Has he not read Fortean Times?
The world is still pretty weird.
And people are still arguing about what it means.
Not so many of them arguing from religion maybe.
