I replaced the old introduction since it said it was text taken from the Encyclopedia Brittanica (1911). So there was a reference but no citations. I would be happy to incorporate the comments from EB 1911 (with citations) in the appropriate places but cannot find a link to any of this material. If you know where this can be found, please let me know. Thanks. Djmaschek (talk) 04:49, 7 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
