I thought I was going offline for the day.To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list.The Neandertal EnigmaFrayer's own reading of the record reveals a number of overlooked traits that clearly and specifically link the Neandertals to the Cro-Magnons. One such trait is the shape of the opening of the nerve canal in the lower jaw, a spot where dentists often give a pain-blocking injection. In many Neandertal, the upper portion of the opening is covered by a broad bony ridge, a curious feature also carried by a significant number of Cro-Magnons. But none of the alleged 'ancestors of us all' fossils from Africa have it, and it is extremely rare in modern people outside Europe." [pp 126-127] |

Let’s see how long it takes some moron to put “junkscience” in the keywords.
With heavy continental glaciation (ice age), the sea levels would have been lower by as much as 300 ft. There is likely a wealth of fossil and archaeological material offshore.
And here I never knew that Neanderthals were scuba divers...
Was it dredged up by a Chinese junk?
At least on these threads, i don’t see “science is stupid” and other interesting comments.
Would you please add me to the GGG ping list?
Yep. Bet there’s a lot of neat stuff under the waters of the Bearing strait.
No posting of an image of certain ancient ugly White House “correspondent”?
Fossils are devils tricks meant to fool men to the darkness.
Happy now?
I’d hate to tell you what that looks like to me.
Rhorschach would have fun with my brain!
Looks like an old piece of bakelite to me!
So...how do they find evidence of an epidermal cyst in a fossil bone?
Well, in their defense, it’s a new thread. ;’)
I noticed “junkscience” in the keywords of another thread this morning, and having run out of psych meds, I posted that comment up there. Ordinarily I try to ignore the foolishness.
For special occasions, I have some graphics I haven’t used in a while.
It has a fossilized epidermal cyst.
Most of the time (as the article sez) commonly given as the period of human origin, the continental shelves were exposed and the interior highlands covered in glaciers. So most evidence is probably down there, including (IMHO of course) submerged settlements, villages, towns, cities, etc.

There are later settlements submerged on the bottom of the Aegean.
