“Sorry- but everythign I find on this states that IN ADDITION, more pieces to 36 other individuals were found IN THE SAME AREA of 1.5 km- again- if you have info stating the one they put together and are talkign about was al lfound in a nice neat little area- then present it- I find no such statement, and every indicatio nthat al lthe pieces were ifnact spread over hte 1.5 km ALONG WITH more pieces they beleive belonged to other individuals”
—Well, I’ve found nothing that implies anything as ludicrous (outside of Creationist sources) as the bones of a single individual being spread out over an area of 1.5 km. I’d be interested to see what your sources are.
Right now I’m looking at the map and pics they have in Science mag where they map out precisely where each piece of Ardi was found. It looks like most of the major pieces of Ardi were within an area of about 3 meters, with a few scraps spread out over another 3 meters or so. I don’t know if you’d consider that a “nice little area”, but ~6 meters is a whole lot less than 1500.

You will find all the secular sites stating that the 36 individuals were fouind in the AREA that the fragments from this particular one was found in, and saying the AREA was 1.5 km- I see nothign stating that this one Ardi was found in a small area-

Got a link to that map? Not disputing it=- it’s just the first I’ve heard of any small area- as I mentioend, all the sites I searched stated 1.5 Area where the fragments and the 36 individuals (I’m assuming that was fragments of 36 individuals) were found
