Around 7,000 years ago the Earth was enjoying a warm climate.

&&&

Probably from all of the coal-burning factories and all of the internal combustion engines running around.

Seriously, though, this must be very exciting for these archaeologists.

Now I know where all those mittens my kids lost when they were growing up went.

I always consider the possibility of these archeologists planting stuff. They live off grant money.

Fordi det var så varmt i sommer, var ikke forholdene optimale for å grave ut alle beinrestene de fant. Derfor grov de ut hele funnet i store jordblokker, som de skal begynne å pirke i om få uker.

It must have been all of those SUVs back then. You know, global warming.

If you have knife block in your kitchen, then you have a knife of very similar size and shape. For what purpose do you use it?

Use the right tool for the job.

“Around 7,000 years ago the Earth was enjoying a warm climate.”

That’s impossible; it has to be a lie, an invention. Humans were not using fossil fuels and driving gas guzzling SUVs all over the planet 7,000 years ago!!! Someone has planted the “stone age” articles near the melting ice just to make it look like a much warmer earth was possible, in early human times, naturally, without CO2 spewing fuels!!! /sarc

Why?

You used a small knife to carve small items same as today.

That looks a lot like a handcrafted knife that I watched being made on a PBS program called Craftsman’s Legacy this morning. The craftsman was named Tim Zawada and he started with ore sands recovered from the shores of Lake Superior. He smelted the sand until it turned into a chunk of steel and then pounded and tempered and shaped it until he had a blade to which he mounted a wooden handle. Fascinating.

That imported Viking ale is to blame. By the time it was shipped in it was at full potency. Otzi had some and look what happened to him.

The article gives the impression that these artifacts are being found because the glacier is melting, with the implication that AGW is responsible for the melting. This is not necessarily the case.

Glaciers flow, just like a river. They are rivers of ice, and their great weight makes them move. Articles lost in the ice higher up gradually move downhill. Eventually, they are exposed at the bottom edge of the glacier. This may take decades, centuries, or millennia, depending on the size of the glacier.

Yes indeed. I think this happened during the lives of Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble. The earth entered into the ice age when Fred and Barney used dinosaurs for horse power.

Helen Thomas was looking everywhere for that lost knife!

They found it too late for her, but her heirs should ask for it to be returned.
