Of interest, the oldest petroglyphs/pictoglyphs in Northern Finland and Karalia are fairly close in age to these found in China.
Might be interesting to compare them. It's noteworthy that today's Sa'ami languages, as a group, are clearly related to ancient Sumerian, and it's the Sumerians who developed the "first writing" (in the Middle East it would now appear).
A linguist at Indiana University who specialized in Uralic-Altaic, and other Central Asian/North Asian languages (ancient and modern) was also able to demonstrate that an American Indian language in California, and an ancient written language in China were also related to Sa'ami and Sumerian.
It's possible all these languages, as well as these ancient pictoglyphs and character systems have a common source ~
okay
For 4 persons add egg flower soup.
Do you have a link?
Incedible. I never knew that. Thanks.

This report gets the kind of dates we already had for many of the ancient Northern Scandinavian petroglyphs, and that's kind of a validation of the idea that these guys weren't "alone".
Be interesting to see what kind of interpretations the Chinese have for some of the story boards. The Keralian materials clearly have several stories about a fellow and his wife who had the same experiences as Lot and his wife (as recorded in the Bible).
and don’t forget the egg rolls this time!........
Was he a Mormon?.........

Why would this be surprising?
There's going to be a problem if Chinese characters much older are found. Stephen Oppenheimer says the oldest Mongoloid skeleton ever found is only 10,000 years old.
They were probably made by the people from the Clan Of Ina.
