    Atsali scores with her eidetic memory! 4354 BCE is also the year that the World Grid was activated, according to what Brandi said a while ago. And this is a problem. The Ancestral Puebloan civilization of Mesa Verde (often called the “Anasazi”) arose around 750 CE in the real world, so the Etheitians, whose civilization vanished 5000 years earlier, cannot have been the Ancestral Puebloans in the Wapsiverse.

    But I have a theory that could explain this – “Anasazi” is just Navajo for “Ancient Enemy,” not the actual name any group of people called themselves. What if, in the Wapsiverse, the term Anasazi doesn’t refer to the Ancestral Puebloans at all but actually refers to the Etheitians, who may have caused trouble for the ancestors of the Navajo in the distant past (such as, say, making lots of volcanoes erupt and such)? Millennia of retelling the story may have confused the identity of the “Anasazi” (Etheitians) with the Ancestral Puebloans who lived at Mesa Verde later.
