In what way are they not the same apart from not living at the same time period? Again, you're making the argument that indigenous people today are no longer indigenous.
Romans? And many of their descendants live in Rome and call themselves Romans. What do you think people in Rome call themselves?
And I already explained that the Romano-British, who are called that, did not build Hadrian's Wall because Hadrian had legionnaires from other parts of the empire do that.
The only reason they're called Romano-British is to show what time period they're talking about. As for who built Stonehenge? Neolithic British people. Any archaeologist will tell you that.
Are you saying Romans aren't Italians? Are you suggesting the Italian Peninsula isn't the Italian Peninsula? Because if you are, we do not agree. Especially when the Romans themselves called it Italia, just like modern Italians do.
Also, Teotihuacan is in the Valley of Mexico. Did Mexicans build it?
