Can assistants, or a Rumours and Legends card, alone meet the special-knowledge requirement to start an excavation?
Quoted designer answers say a book is needed, but the rulebook text and several posters allow rumours alone, so the rumour case is contested.

Assistants alone: no, on the developer's own answer in the thread, which says a coloured book or found item must supply the point. Rumours alone: contested. The rulebook lists rumours among special knowledge, and posters split on whether they can stand alone.
