Speaker does not include speech.

Speech does include speaker, but I would assume that is used not for the 
speaker of the speech but a speaker who is being identified in the 
speech as having said something that is being quoted in the speech. 
<speaker>Marc Anthony</speaker><speech>And then 
<speaker>Caesar</speaker> said, <q>What? No Pepsi?</q> and then he 
died.</speech> ;-)

Question: What if the speaker is not identified in the text? Can I write 
<speaker who="Marc Anthony"/>?
