Was "Gallic wars" a text similar to the Odyssey - so, describing the Younger Dryas cataclysms?

The author draws a parallel with the Gallic war and Greek Troy:

Hector - Wikipedia

In Greek mythology, Hector (/ˈhɛktər/; Ἕκτωρ, Hektōr, pronounced [héktɔːr]) was a Trojan prince, a hero, and the greatest warrior for Troy during the Trojan War. He is a major character in Homer's Iliad, where he leads the Trojans and their allies in the defense of Troy, killing countless Greek warriors. He is ultimately killed in single combat by the Greek hero Achilles, who proceeds to drag his dead body around the city of Troy behind his chariot.

The literature about (and from) Caesar is quite extensive as well as the literature about (and from) the time and places Caesar lived/operated. So, before proposing ideas like this, I think it would be a good idea to get a firm grasp of that literature and what it likely is suggesting and how that would square with an idea of that kind.

I‘ve read a number of books on the subject, which are by far not all the material one could read about it, but from that preliminary view on the subject the idea you have presented so far seems pretty unlikely.

Thing is that if comets condition mankind... If there is an angle, with some flags, I see it as a potential road.

You seem to indicate that one must firstly first "tap" into the Roman database, in terms of literature, and archeology (if I understand it right - I am not sure). Those will always say the same things - and it will go into the direction of today's consensus. At worse, "Caesar the imperialist". That's what those sources show and it's difficult to get out of it. Still, C's show a very different Caesar.

I would agree with the idea of gathering all sources and data possible - but the literature is kind of monolithic - and it's like a deep dive into a stable sea. Romans, roads, battles, amphitheaters, roman columns, etc. My idea will never fit with such data.

I am of course pondering the idea that Caesar did make all those battles & fights. This will be difficult to defend; I just saw something, and did not want to let an idea slip. When grossly checking about it, i cannot say that "there is nothing". But I am cautious, so thank you for your bold take :)

but from that preliminary view on the subject the idea you have presented so far seems pretty unlikely.

But why, exactly?

Thank you!

Thank you!

How much of the recommended reading have you done? Did you at least read Laura's books and Pierre's books?

Hmm yes many of their books.

I understand that... My question was not appropriate, isn't it? I feel I should not have asked.

If I may: this was simply a request for clarification, in the sense of "something more precise".

Cosmos tells me "there are huge bodies of literature" - "I've read many of those books" - "It is unlikely that ...".

And so, he makes a bridge towards the label "it is unlikely".

What's that bridge? Could this be formulated?
