Thanks for the lecture mode post, very interesting. there is something to think about, yes.
It is very likely that at different times, even in the second half of the 19th and 20th centuries, the interpretations and explanations (of certain things) by different researchers in different, sometimes hard-to-reach places (countries, cities) may simply be different , for different reasons ; - inaccurate or incomplete information accumulated over a specific period of research, the absence of normal (in comparison with modern) communications in the past, any political or religious reasons, and more. A simple example: In the late 1980s, the "era of metal detectors" began around the world.
How much material did historians and researchers have compared to what was accumulated over the past 150 years before that? over a decade, artifacts from more than the previous 100 years have been found. , then a comparative analysis, classification, in a word, a lot of material for study that breaks stereotypes, and besides this there are many other new possibilities, many old typologies required revision, additions, important historical events, thanks to the ability to exchange information, may receive others that differ from the previous explanations ..
of course, even researchers of the mid-20th century, not to mention older times, did not have such a volume of information to study as they do now ... unfortunately, I am not in the scientific community.
Sincerely
