Alburnum
Why does that sound as though it should be a city in the middle of England?

Speaking of Birnam wood going to high Dunsinane, I suspect that it would be hard to find
an earlier description of military use of camouflage.

Deear Bingley: It seems to me that the Wooden Horse of Troy was closer to being a decoy.
I also have long thought it rather improbable that the Greeks had woodworking technology
to have been able to create such a structure.
