Q: is Ubaid O actually related to Eridu and Ubaid I-IV?

John DeeMost sources state 5400 B.C. as the beginning of the Ubaid period. The Ubaid period is further divided by them into Ubaid I-IV.

@sempaiscuba You approved an edit to the Marx/Engels question which leaves me confused: Now the title does not match the body of the Q and part of my answer's length is because of the confusion about "confusion" not being in that movie transcript in English. What to do now? Adjust Q-body as well and rewrite A again?
Since OP refused to clarify that with an edit by himself I do not feel much motivation to remove that allusion to Chinese whispers about vague and confusing movie quotes without quotation marks and my first comment there.

@sempaiscuba Ouch. That's correct. Sorry. As I said, I am confused about the change in general and must have overlooked the title change previously. Do you have an idea for the remaining problems I mentioned?
