When I hear phrases like “120,000” and “78,000” years ago, my mind thinks about the vast difference in time between that far back and the little more than 4,000 years or so of what we call “recorded” human history.
It makes one try to imagine what “recorded human history” would be like, back 120,000 or even 78,000 years ago.
I guess history would “explode” if someone found a never before seen human form of writing on some artifact that was found to be 50,000 years old.
I’ll get right on that. Any idea what it would go for on Ebay?
