Well, remember than before the sixteenth century, they must have
had a strong enough literary movement to create the sundry works
of Shakespeare -- it is claimed that those were written originally in
Klingon, and placing this in the fourteenth century would possibly
provide time for the works to become popular enough to reach Terra
in time for Bill to translate them . . .

Klingon' Sigh,)
