Enkidu’s Stamping Ground
Recently the Google Earth images of Oxford got much, much better. This, for example, is the part of town where you might run into Enkidu on your travels. That’s the canal going down the left-hand-side, where he’s been spotted on a number of occasions now; and there’s St Barnabas Church along the bottom edge, with Jericho’s Albert Street cutting through the top right-hand-corner.
You should mark confirmed sightings on the map, see if we can spot a pattern to his movements…

There’s still a part of me that wants to attach a GPS device to Enkidu, and do this scientifically.
