Looks like they had buckets and tape measures too.

This area of Norway was also much lower in elevation than it is today, since the weight of the glacial ice was enough to depress the land itself. That means the coastline at the time was also higher than it is today.

So, was it lower than it is today, or higher than it is today?

I haven’t heard of the Finse event before, that is something I will have to investigate. Robert Schoch was on Joe Rogan’s podcast last week and he is always interesting to listen to.

Solheim says that forests began to grow in this region after 9000 BC. "The climate was also quite different, and it was probably a bit warmer than it is today," he said. "We see a lot of hazel, alder, elm, and later oak, all of which are tree species that prefer warmer environments."

Never to be reported on by the "mainstream" left-wing media.

They treated 4th World outsiders a bit more suspiciously then, than they do now.

"Life was good for Stone Age Norwegians along Oslo Fjord"

So THAT'S where all the new Nowegian Aloha Snackbars now live, along the Oslo Fjord!

I am really surprised at some of the areas settled during the Neolithic area. With so few people, you would think they’d reject the less desirable areas. But no, they’re occupying the Orkney, the Shetlands, and Norway.

They probably didn’t have to listen to SWJs or deal with LGBTQ issues.
