How do they know this?
What a bunch of hogwash.

This is interesting:
“It is with sad hearts that we announce that Dr. David Gilichinsky, longtime Head of Geocryology Lab, Institute for Physicochemical and Biological Problems in Soil Science at the Russian Academy of Sciences, passed away Saturday, 18 February 2012.”
Let's just say I'm skeptical of Russian comments on their own accomplishments. God rest his soul.

FYI, GGGish. This isn’t genuinely archaeology or religion, but it’s interesting and old.
