Then they're hardly archaeologists, are they ? A true academic would love the challenge and look to test your evidence; either supporting it or showing it to be incorrect.

Unfortunately the world has always had cliques who view outsiders as heretics. It's their way of dealing with their insecurities.

Don't lose your faith, and keep digging.

At least WE have open minds and we're interested in what you're doing.

Best wishes, BW

Just a thought from the other point of view.
Would there be any possibility that the rails were planned at some time in the past to create a "Cattle Grid"? Does the location were they were found lend itself to that?
I think, however, that they would be too lightweight for that and BH rail is better for that purpose.
