The other question being:
How did it get perma-frosted? That's interesting, in itself.
Did Guam tip over?

Many academics will tell you that when archaeological discoveries are made that don’t fit the contemporary narrative they are either ignored, sh*tcanned or ridiculed. The Chinese have been quite good at standing up to the ridicule and positing some interesting discoveries that question our understanding of the past.

I read most of Velikovsky's stuff in my misspent youth... :)

Mammoths must have tasted real good because you got a lot of convincing to do to get me to jab it with a sharpened stick.

Actually, I think that whole discussion is in his “Earth In Upheaval”. :’)

Yes, Worlds in Collision was his first book, which set the stage for some of his later theories, such as an explanation of the numerous mammoth carcasses frozen in the Alaskan & Siberian permafrost.

EARTH IN UPHEAVAL
In this epochal book, Immanuel Velikovsky, one of the great scientists of modern times, puts the complete histories of our Earth and of humanity on a new basis. He presents the results of his 10-year-long interdisciplinary research in an easily understandable, even entertaining manner.
Inspite - or even because - of the disgraceful hostility, provoked by his theories, this book keeps being of ardent topicality, which in the light of recent scientific research is even growing.
Earth in Upheaval - a very exactly investigated and easily understandable book - contains material that completely revolutionizes our view of the history of the earth.
For all those who have ever wondered about the evolution of the earth, the formation of mountains and oceans, the origin of coal or fossils, the question of the ice ages and the history of animal and plant species, Earth in Upheaval is a MUST-READ!

You are out there.......freezing to death, nothing but ice in all directions. Oh, and starving to death as well.
Look there! Spotting a mammoth.
And all you have are 20 of you with sharp sticks.
What to do, what to do...

I first read Velikovsky’s works in the 1970’s. It had an impact on me.

It was excavated from a permafrost embankment at Yenisei bay, a remote spot in central Siberia where a massive river empties into the Arctic Ocean.Maybe a mammoth, injured by hunters, escaped into the river and was washed downstream a long way from where the people attacked it.

I don’t have access to the text (it used to be available for d/l), but perhaps *someone* does...
