I don't understand why they even make such prognostications...... Because the basis of leftist ideology is that people are good in their natural state and culture ruins them. They project this on to archaeological finds. Read the intro to Lawrence Keeley's War Before Civilization on Amazon (buy the book, too, but you can read the intro for free). His story about "fortifications" and "enclosures" is quite interesting.

"I wish they would stop assuming that every ancient culture with any organization was "egalitarian". It causes them to overlook all sorts of things -- like evidence of homicides." Take a look at the chart in post #11, I suspect the spike (deaths) around the age 15-25 were the result of violent activity. Also, see below.
"The remains of a 29 year old male show a deep wound in the buttocks, probably caused by an antler. The injury is such that Doran thinks it was caused by a human wielding the antler in anger. He says that the wound is counter to previously stated views of these people as passive."

There is a program titled,
'Secrets Of The Bog People: Windover', about this site in Florida. It is coming up on The Learning Channel at 11:00PM(CST) tonight. I caught about 10 minutes of the last showing, looks real good. The Preliminary DNA results are EUROPEAN!! There is also a reconstructed face of a woman.
I encourage all to see this.
farmfriend, will you please ping everyone who may be interested, thanks.

Damn, I gotta get cable.
I'm not surprised at the DNA match.
Ever since the red-head showed up in Siberia, it seemed pretty obvious that modern man has underestimated "pre-modern" man as his motility (and abilities).

In Michael Cremo's book "The Hidden History of the Human Race" (an abridged version is called "Forbidden Archeology", or maybe I have the titles mixed up - one is abridged because the footnotes were so extensive) - he cites an archeologist finding remains of human habitation and activity in strata around 20,000 year old. She wound up being black balled and had her career ruined because that date did not fit in with the elites' view of human habitation in the Americas. I think it was in Mexico. Check out his book if you're interested in evidence of very ancient humans! (www.mcremo.com)

Isn't A. West now pushing for the Sphinx to be around 15,000 years old ... the original, pre-Egyptian recarve Sphinx, the one Bauval says was carved to face the rising Leo of 15,000 years ago (I may have that date wrong ... precession date for Leo rising just before sunrise)?

Don't know about that. But, Dr Robert Schoch (Geologist/geophysist), the brains they recruited, has only said 9,000 years old. Schoch wrote his own book, Voyages Of The Pyramid Builders.

As a geologist, Schoch gave hard reasoning to the erosion of the Sphinx enclosure. Anthony West is no slouch when it comes to science. His theory is interesting however, to me, because it posits advanced cultures in Africa during and even before the last ice age. There seems to be evidence of such ancient cultures even in South America, so I'm intrigued by the possibility that advanced cultures have so thoroughly dissapeared in twenty thousand or less years. Perhaps the megalithic remains off Okinawa will be connected to such a period during or prior to the last ice age. I regularly read up from Hancock's, Bauval's, and West's websites. The pix from Graham Hancock's wife (Santha Faiia) are neat, also.

"Perhaps the megalithic remains off Okinawa will be connected to such a period during or prior to the last ice age."I saw a one hour documentary about the Okinawa site, Schoch donned scuba gear and inspected the site. He said it was a natural formation and pointed out that there were similar structures on land a short distance away.
He was generous with his closing disposition by saying that humans 'may have tampered' with these natural structures before they went underwater.
In his most recent book (Voyages Of The Pyramid Builders), he said that from what he has seen so far of the underwater structures off the coast of Cuba that they are probably natural structures also.

I will always bow to John's superior pinging knowlege as he was most helpful in my early pinging days.
Mr. Huang will always be the King of Ping.
Remind me to tell you about the stolen JohnHuang2 ping list sometime.
