1-5 As we said earlier in (1-2; 2-2), we will present historical, archaeological, linguistic, neurological, biological, & also psychological evidence to demonstrate the ‘non-binary’ nature of this existence. We will first present the historical & archaeological evidence, and then we will work our way through the other domains. From the Mediterranean, Old Egyptians, and Early Sumerians; through the Ancient Greeks, and Early Indians; and also other Middle Eastern cultures; we will present a history and records of ‘non-binary’ figures and also other correlates; all of which this ‘previous thought’ did not account for. Historical & Archaeological Evidence The Mediterranean 
 The earliest historical and archaeological evidence we have to date pointing to 'non-binary' figures, in fact, comes from the Neolithic and Bronze Age (7000 BCE - 1700 BCE; & 3300 BCE - 1200 BCE, respectively) (Talalay 2005).
 
There are a number of drawings & figurines from the Mediterranean area whereby a ‘third sex’, ‘unidentified sex’, or ‘intersex’ figures: such as, having female breasts and male genitals; or without distinguishing sex characteristics are represented (Talalay 2005: 131-139).
 
Talalay (2005) also points out to the biases he encountered in the published literature on around 1200 of these drawings and figurines in one of his studies in retrospect because a ‘binary’ lens was used to study them (Talalay 1993) (cited in Talalay 2005: 134).
