Yes, I'm sorry. I was thinking more general terms, such as why the Mayan's "vanished" (hint: they didn't), why there are pyramids found all over the world, why the Nazca lines were carved, etc. Like I said, the Dogon controversy just isn't something I'm well versed in. I suspect this is case of an anthropologist mistranslating and/or misinterpreting a myth. Anyway, when another anthropologist went back and spoke to them, some of them identified the star that was supposedly Sirius as Venus, which is extremely bright and hard to miss.
