Malkin asked:
<<< . . . not what they ate, but how the meal was structured. How
does one properly set and serve a meal in the Holy Land, in period?
Anybody know of any references where I would start with to determine
the structure of the Islamic meal? >>>
A key question is when are you asking about? If I remember some of our
previous discussions on this subject, the way Middle Eastern meals
were served changed during our period of study.
Here is a file with some of our previous commentary on this.

PS: I think I'm finally employed again, at least for a while. I signed
the papers to do some contract engineering work this afternoon. Now I
just have to fulfill the promises I made...
