Medieval Tik-Tok
It sounds like another Children's Crusade, patterned after the one forty years earlier. They were suckered by some religious nut (Pied Piper, Pious Papist) into leaving for the Holy Land. Instead, they were all sold into slavery. If a young girl like Joan of Arc could follow the same kind of delusion, it tells something about the child psychology of the Middle Ages.

Myths are usually based upon things that actually happened. An oral tradition passed down generation to generation for hundreds or thousands of years about things that happened in the past, though cloaked in symbolism, hyperbole, and the supernatural does have its origin in an actual event, make no mistake. It's for this reason that I believe in figures like King Arthur, Beowulf, Hercules, Cu Chullain, and the like. They wouldn't be writing epics about about these people if they didn't exist. One of the most interesting things I've ever heard was the theory that all of our fantasy stories are cultural remembrances of the society the Indo-Europeans set up in Europe in the Bronze Age. I posted this video in the customs, folklore, and mythology section but I'll repost it here to show what I'm talking about.

It reminded me of the Croaton. Ooh, creepy. I was always afraid of such things, and... I found these things to be a little entertaining. It's like a visiting an old rusty castle with bats and spiders inside. Everything is in penumbra and only lonely creaks sounds from the cellars with hundreds of dozens rats...

You never know, if this person was a spy, of other kingdom, and was sent by rivals, who introduced rats. Otherwise, why was he so condifdent that he can remove the rats from the town, for a particular amount, and then, he knew they would not pay him, so he targeted kids. Does not this ring of ethnic cleansing? Usually, kids are targeted first by other groups.

Like for instance they sae England (or Britain? I always confuse them) invented the first concentration camp, and they had bee using some during Anglo-Burr (with North African's?) war. Previously there were plenty stories in the ancient times. |

Makes perfect sense but stories of faeries are universal among every culture in the world. Even the Native Americans in my state, the Catawba, have stories of fairy like beings so who knows? |

There's a history of hittite, who had spread plagues, using rams, though. www.newscientist.com/article/dn12960-were-cursed-rams-the-first-biological-weapons/ |

Yes, so if europeans can revive their NORTH EURASIANISM culture, then, even muslims will be shamed in front of them. However, modern europeans look to live in comforts, and are more into industrialization, etc. |

... because after less than 2 minutes of the talk
it got interrupted by crapvertising
the story though is better than the video
we are seeing it going on in the world right now
millions of children going missing or 'dying of the flu'
their parents did not pay their respective pipers

Calling them INDO-EUROPEAN is wrong. It's family of languages. The people who brought these languages , should be labelled as MIXED RACE OF WHG AND EHG. That's why, most of these people were poor, as they also got ruled by some other people, which is still not been found, and they eventually also started colonizing and occupying the areas and territory, and also produced their own mestizos in the regions. In fact, these hunter gatherers did not develop anything, not even universities, and grabbing lands and girls was their only purpose. And the areas, where they ruled, were only pastoral and primitive societies. India is one such perfect example, where everyone thinks that their ancestors were some scientists and made india a super power, without even knowing that India as nation got created only in 1947.  |

Yes, actually, many of the then established kings and royals, used to hire these hunter gatherers as spies and mercenaries, against their neighboring rivals. Now, I can write with confidence that these hunter gatherers were skilled in warfare, spying, and even driving horses.

What else do you expect from cultureless people? That way, I would rather go with christinaity , because, at least, they developed some consciousness and culture in them.
Hunter gatherers only have thinking for basic needs, like lands, girls, cattles etc. They would never become a civilized nation.
The funny thing is that these hunter gatherers tried to rule subcontinent, by taking up the culture of natives, like imposing as brahmins, kshatriyas, but you cannot change your blood.
