i have the same thing i found while working in Alaska Red Dog Mine this week ,pretty interesting i found this artical and picture of what i found while looking for quartz top of a mountain here . i carried it down because it does look like a screw and is square cut aroungd it
Since we are talking of alternate views, the Aquatic Ape Theory was mentioned as an aside. I read up on it, and it is very compelling. The distribution of fat cells on our bodies is more in line with aquatic mammals than terrestrial animals. The skin on our hands and feet pucker when in water not because they absorbed too much water, but because our brain recognized the environment and sent a signal to the skin cells to pucker in order to provide traction and grip in water environments. That is an evolutionary trait that wouldn't have had enough time to imprint as a survival adaptation in land animals... Just a passing thought, rather intriguing.
If Port Royal can sink into the sea, I see it as possible that Cuba's city could have also. I understand the question of destruction, but is it possible that an entire "shelf" just "fell off"? I'm no scholar, but I think we should be looking at different possible scenarios.
It certainly sounds like a terrble time to live. I know lives were short in that era all over the world. While live in medieval Iceland sounds "nasty, brutish and short," how do the findings here compare with others in Europe or around the world?
Regarding the rapid evolution of the human species, Terence McKenna presented an interesting theory. He suggested that the discovery (and consumption) of psilocybin mushrooms by our ancestors led to the expansion of their brains, and the development of our characteristic human creativity and capacity for complex language. When you consider the proliferation of these mushrooms in ancient human artwork, the idea doesn't seem that far-fetched.
I really need an answer as to how scientists are getting past the mutation rate issue and how it affects dating methods. Every single article i can find shows that with our current understanding of mutation rates the species is only 6,000 years old. Creationists are touting this all over the place and i have seen no counter. It just seems to be getting ignored and these long dates keep getting tossed out.
Can anyone point me to an article or two that deals with this?
What about all the controversy over MTdna dating methods? Ive searched high a low for an academic response to the fact that mutation rates show recent history within a 6,000 year window.
What you write is not a revelation. It's has always been communicated in the literature since at least when I studied this 40 years ago that the average life expectancy did not mean maximum possible age. It's only through the non scientific, popular, badly researched press that such misunderstanding is perpetuated.
Well I guess this shoots the crying Native American on the side of the highway TV ad all to hell. I thought the Native cultures of thousands of years ago whose land was stolen by the evil polluting devil white man were one with the land and sea. The pedestal that these cultures are put on have always been a lie. They were violent, war making, human sacrificing and apparently land raping humans. They had no morals and it's no wonder their 'civilization' died out. It's almost always the case some idiot gets put in charge - whether an Emperor, King or POTUS - they screw up the society so bad it starts a downhill slide and collapses.
Hi
I am from Mumbai India and am interested in the Indus Valley Civilisation/ Indus-Saraswati civilisation
of the South Asian Continent and have come across your website researching on the aspect of Human remains found in the archaelogical and anthroplogical discoveries made in the past and present. Eager to learn about the roots of Indian Rig-Vedic Civilasion and theories that prevail on the same.
I AM UNABLE TO UNDERSTAND
It seems surprising to me that the people of New England, who depended on fire as their only source of light, couldn't tell the difference between a fire blocking out the sun (ie: smoke) and some end-of-days event. I imagine they all knew what it was like to live in a world where there were fires considering how many open flames there were. People of the 1700's may not have had a lot of technology, but they weren't stupid.
But also occupied most of the highlands as clan chat during a time when then new hanovarian king was trying to suppress all other claims to the throne by suppressing the highlander and outlawing the galic tunge. kirk publishes the bible in galic and writes the secret life. The same year that the MacDonald are slaughtered at glen co. Kirk go's missing read Robert l Stevenson Kidnapped.
Here you can navigate quickly through all comments made in any article sorted by date/time.

I think that's also a reasonable option. Unfortunately, we don't know the answer.

Very interesting – thank you! Amazing construction, but can’t help wondering if it’s hurting the tree a wee bit.
Also quite surprised that France dosen’t have any trees older than 800 years old.
Thanks for the article :)

Sorry James vii not quite hanoverian but leading up to this time
I wish to follow these developments. Thank you.

Maybe the wing bones were so small they weren't preserved. To my knowledge there has never been a totally wingless bird.
Denisovan discoveries are important.
