See that's the trouble with "traditional knowledge". Even when it was written down somewhere once, people's recollection of it starts to drift and they favour a version that suits their world view. Can you imagine settling a land claim based on hundreds, nay thousands, of years of knowledge about who hunted game and captured slaves where, handed down orally?
