Hehe, the name is a good example of a situation where there isn't the definite "right decision", but a multitude of different options each with pros and cons. At some point I was also considering something like "Savo 1200 AD : Slash and Burn", but felt that "1200 AD" is somewhat off, since the savo people at those times had absolutely no idea of Julian calendar. Also, actually I'd like the name to refer more to the people, instead of just the geographical area. But then "Ancient Savonians : Slash and Burn" sounds somehow clumsy to my ears. And I don't know if "Kaskikansa" could be easily translated, "The Swidden People" doesn't sound quite right =)
