See! Think of all the neat stuff we’ll find before gorebal warming kills us all.
Alright, I can believe they found this arrow but I’m doubting the authenticity of that checkered ruler looking thing. That’s either been planted or photoshopped.
They shot an arrow into the air ,LOL
It’s good to know I’m not the only one who loses stuff while hunting.
If the arrow is melting out of the ice then that must mean it was as warm or warmer than it is now. I wonder what climate scientist Lesko Brandon has to say about that. Or about glaciers melting and revealing tree stumps!
That’s a very professional looking nock on the arrow. Would love to see the entire steel arrowhead. Incredible find.
“Glacial Archeologists” as opposed to the non-specialized kind that digs in ordinary dirt and sand...
What`s the difference between an archaeologist and a glacier archaeologist?
Ahhh. So THAT’S where I dropped it!
Wasn’t there an airplane, that sank down through the ice layers. Something about it would warm more than the surrounding ice.
Woolly Mammoths used to use that kind of spear to hunt man. That’s how man could exist for hundreds of millions of year but not overpopulate. Sometimes after slaughtering man, the mammoths would leave tools behind. Which of course make archeologists think that man was making tools, when in fact, it was the woolly mammoths.
It’s not easy to make a tool using only a mammoth trunk and large feet. They would often have to work together, especially when making knots.
Other times they would simply herd the humans north onto the ice sheets where they would freeze. Thus the origin of the word “pop”sicle.
After a couple of hundred million years, man realized that they could raid the mammoth camps and take their tools and spears and use them against the mammoths. This was the turning point in mammoth and human history.
It’s also how crows will take over from humans.
and here I thought all along that it was spelled,
a-r-c-h-e-o-l-g-y
I found a bronze spear head in the shoulder blade of a mastodon on the side of a bluff here in Puget Sound, Washington state. You might say, no way, they didn’t have smeltering knowledge or capability during the ice age, yet there it is, wedged tightly into the shoulder of this woolley mammoth. We also have the bones and teeth but no tusks were found. I’d like to have it tested at UW but like a quartz arrow head I gave to them once for testing and never saw again, I fear it will go missing. So much out there that is kept under wraps, for what? I don’t know. What are they afraid of finding out do you think? Like so many things in our culture and politics, any straying from the official narrative is taboo.
No thanks, Fakebook.
I shot an arrow into the ice.
If I could find it,
T’would sure be nice..................😁
