Yes, it is taken out of context. Because, the first part of the historian's quote explains why specifically in that area there may have been different ethnic groups.  The first half explains that because the town was located on a popular trade route, it is reasonable that there may have been people from other cultures and locales staying there.  

You may still find that not very compelling, and that's fine.  To be honest, I don't think it was an especially great argument.  But, the way it was presented was deliberately misleading.  It goes straight from " a historian I spoke to, who specialises (sic) in the area, disagrees" into the second half of the historian's quote.This gives the impression that this is the entirety of what the historian said, and it simply was not.   The part that was omitted was entirely relevant to the point and it wasn't especially long to the point where it needed to be cut for length.  Moreover, of the paragraphs quoted, the others were cut and pasted in their entirety.  This paragraph, which is probably the most relevant to the argument the review was making, was the only one to be chopped up like that.  There is literally no reason, other than to intentionally mislead, to cut the article like that.   

And have you gone to the reviewer and also asked for the full source of the historician right? Because at least op gave the link to the original article, while the reviewer almost certainlyedited his text to just portray the points from asingle person that could sustain his flimsy point. 

All you've done is suggested the reviewer was dishonest too, which, even if true, would do nothing to justify the OPs dishonest presentation of information.
