The article as written at this date doesn't contain a single line about how we know detailed information about what the Sun was doing in Homer's time. This is not a trivial point. There needs to be a dedicated section, catalogued in the Contents, called Historical Attestation or words to that effect, that divulges who identified this event and how. Short of that, the article reads like pure speculation. Laodah 01:19, 19 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
Um. The article is not about a historical event, but about a climate event reconstructed from paleoproxies which has then been related to historical events. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 10:02, 19 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
