Who knows who really is the “author” of this “art”??
Nawwww...that was me and the boys.....we wound up there after a binge of ganja and that there snake is just a picture of a doobie with a tail.....
We used photogrammetry on a very large outdoor compact range reflector to align the individual panels to ensure they fit the parabolic section curve needed.
Interesting tech. We had to print YUGE sheets to place on the structure with various sized dots so that the image could map the structural excursions. We checked to see if the dots should all be the same size and were told they would produce better results if they were varied. Fun stuff. Long ago and far far away.
No, Indians did not evolve in the New World.
They came from the Asian steppes around 12,000 years ago.
All current (genetic) populations evolved from Pleistocene populations. And Native Americans are quite a distinct group because as you noted they came here quite a while ago. Perhaps as long as 25K or as late as 12K ya.
I think they all came from the lost land of Indigena.
Your time line seems to be correct, from what I know.
American Indians and the ‘’native’’ peoples of Mexico and Central America are really Asians and Asians, being raised on a different type of diet are adverse to alcohol because unlike Europeans Asians didn’t have quite the acclimation to grains as did Europeans which is why when American Indians and Mexicans get drunk they go ballistic.
Their bodies in effect are having a severe allergic reaction to the grain in the alcohol.
How do they know that’s not the first fishnet stocking unraveling?
