The current version of the article is in dire need of sources. Much of the recent expansion is based on a presentation by a reputable historian and an expert on the subject matter, but prints of PowerPoint slides definitely do not count as sources… Chino ( talk) 16:22, 1 December 2013 (UTC) reply

I removed the stub tags. The article already contains a substantial amount of material, and further expansion may be difficult for the simple fact that few historical records survive. Chino ( talk) 16:22, 1 December 2013 (UTC) reply
