I find Wolters more fringe than science. And yes I usually watch his shows because it’s entertaining. I find the Solutrean hypothesis interesting....which makes me a racist I suppose.
Funny I read back in the early 90s and agreed with this guy Milford Wolpoff about how he felt that Neanderthals
Didn’t so much die out as combined with so-called modern humans. Fellow ‘scientists ‘ considered his views racist.....that is till the DNA mapping was completed. Then all of a sudden it was Science.
Milford Wolpoff is (or was?) one of the leading proponents of multiregionalism, and that view that Neandertals are our ancestors has been borne out by DNA studies.
That is exactly the opposite result that was predicted by one clown (Stanford or Berkeley I think) who referred to the Neandertals as the "village idiot", claiming that they were without speech, and further said that the morphological approach was dead, as he championed DNA, then he up and died of cancer. And the DNA evidence has shown him to be just another ignorant bigot.
Is that the geologist guy? Yeah, he is quite fringe.
