    Bad situation. BUT Unless the museum is a FEDERAL entity, the FBI had no jurisdiction. Until interstate trafficking was known. We have (re)entered an era where a central government takes overall (good or bad) , Did we not fight a War against Britain over their central govt, controlling even minor aspects of our daily lives, including a forced national religion. If local governments want the Central Govt, micro-managing, then they need to dissolve all local govt & petition Federal Congress to change them to Federal holdings with NO self-rule. Or better move to some dictatorship.

  • Reply to: Five Surprising Things DNA has Revealed About our Ancestors   6 years 1 month ago

    Surprising! yes, since what is not intentional mis-informantion (pre-PC word LIE), it is bigoted personal (guilt-trip?) convoluted "speculation. We, people in real world, are tired of the fear in academia & press of using accurate words. "non-African" ???? Africa is a continent, it includes the Koi-Sans, Dutch Boers, various other Caucasians (Arabs, Jews, Tauregs etc) & of course the (at moment) larger group NEGROID. (years back when accuracy was prominent over cowardice) it was well established in anthropology that Negroes are a recent specialization, not the early norm.. Stop being afraid (of whom?) to use proper accurate terms. Dark does NOT mean BLACK, nor chocolate etc. Artist silly "ideas" are insulting, waste space(is that the purpose of them?). e.g. the pre-Kelts (correigh) in Ireland, the Samii in Lapland, were & STILL are slightly dark compared to Kelts & Vikings, but far far from that irrational & insulting picture.

    Hello to all.

    I guess we do all share the same doubts, indeed we do know nothing about our past.

    Cheers.

    Thank you Mulcogi Seng. I, too, have become disillusioned with this site. Several articles back, I made a similar comment to yours regarding "What jesus wore."

    Sorry Ancient Origins - this is no longer the site I recommended to friends. Now, we all agree, it's like going to an evangelical revival meeting.

    “Yes and it is also possible that the first modern humans in Europe were already dark, even before interbreeding. More research would resolve that.”

     

    The fact is, we don’t know and that was the point of my comment. This headline completely misrepresnted the facts instead of focusing on the DNA results. This was not unique to this article, as the vast majorty of articles written on this”discovery” completely glossed over the actual DNA findings in favor of what some would consider a shocking headline. Another major elephant in the room, is the credability of scientific discovery/announcements. Even the BBC has picked up on the fact that peer scientist have been unable to reproduce the results of many scientific experiments. Reproducability of scientific experiments is key to proving a discovery… only time will tell if these results are reproducible or mabe the research team was only looking for their five minutes of fame.

    Egypt has been a multi ethnic society since ancient times. The idea of a racial controversy with it is a ridiculous and meaningless one.

    This article is about an ancient example of a European modern human.

    "How can you assume a whole race of people are black skinned with blue eyes?" It should not be assumed but, it looks like Cheddar Man was not unique if you consider this.

    "In other words, he could have had black skin or just have been darker than most Britons today." Yes, the analysis has not specified which particular shade of dark skin he had. It only reveals that it was within a range of shades.

    "it is possible that the dark skin was inherited from human interbreeding with other hominids." Yes and it is also possible that the first modern humans in Europe were already dark, even before interbreeding. More research would resolve that.

    Comment Author: Mulcogi Seng

    I used to come to Ancient Origins every day to read the latest in new information on our shared history. But it is becoming impossible for me to continue. Articles like this are just so far away from the truth and what I want to learn about. At this time there is absolutely NO historical evidence for the life of Jesus never mind that he traveled to Tibet, studied at a Buddhist monastery, all centuries before Buddhism came to Tibet. I'm tired of your bait and switch, showing that good articles are still available but only if I pay the price. Your website has really gone down hill since I first started visiting you. While purporting to cover the history of the world it is clear to me that there is a pronounced monotheistic/christian bias to this site. The document in question that talks about a Saint Issa is not extant. In fact, a quick Wikipedia visit shows that such a work was probably fabricated yet none of that is mentioned in this highly cherry picked article. Shame on you! While I may continue to visit here it won't be as often. I will be looking for a site that doesn't have the problems and all of the intrusive advertising that your site contains. Do you really want to downgrade into a site that is known for its click bait articles?

    And of course spoken language is not the only language. There are body language and hand gestures as well! For example: the use of the index finger to point at specific things opens up a whole world in communication. When did that first happen!?!

    My guess is the Smithsonian knows and is keeping it a secret. ANything that messes with the notion of Evolution the Smithsonian comes in takes it and hides the truth.
    Just like evidence of Giants they hide and won't let the general public in.
    NOt sure what to make of these spheres but they weren't naturally formed.
