Mountains of Evidence

[MtnMisty]

The wonderful article about Jean-Jaques D'Ortous de Mairan's take on plasma mythology got me to thinking about historical auroral activity. As a lay person with a life long love/interest in geology, I understand that we can somewhat map the historical magnetic poles and such. Is it possible to calculate/guesstimate ancient auroral activity given the knowledge of past magnetic activity and solar activity? And, would that guesstimate take into account pole wandering (and/or even polar shifts, for that matter) to figure who might have seen what and where in regards to long ago aurora borealis? Interesting stuff.
