Note: whatever I do I can't get research faster than 3 turns - it may have something to do with the fact that I have been notified of three other civilisations having been destroyed.
Estimating from the powergraph: Turks c2000BC, Babylonians c1500AD and Persians c1790AD.
Counting caravans (I currently have 35) I think I could afford an extra Wonder, but all the useful ones seem to have gone - I guess Adam, Hoover or Seti would save me some upkeep, but so what? I guess I resign myself to a mid 20th century launch and curse not having built Marco's or SoL when they were available.

1931 Egyptians invite me to "Gape in Wonder" at Theology!
1934 Paratrooper#4; Landing on AC
I thought that an alternative strategy might lead to faster early growth - so I quickly tried this - result earlier to Colossus & Republic, but strangled by food shortage so behind by AD ... such is life.
