Another object, a 1,200-year-old carved wooden piece, has scientists stumped as to its purpose.

Probably the base of a tree.

Let's see ... Global Warming ... melting ice ... revealing ... previously unknown human habitation from thousands of years ago ... so ... it must have been warm back then, just like it is now .... so ... Global Warming of the Earth's climate is part of the natural fluctuation of the output of the Sun. No reason to suspect human causation.

Last year's warm summer further melted the territory's alpine snowfields, which have become a rich source of artifacts from the territory's pre-history.

Global warming is causing the warmest time in history, which is causing all-year ice in the Yukon to melt exposing places where people lived when there was no all-year ice. The logic is inescapable.

This year's prize is a wooden dart dated at just over 9,000 years old

What 9,000 and a day? a week? month? less than 9001? I wonder how people date stamped things back in 7000 BC?

It's just stuff from the gift shop, strategically placed by pranksters.

So, my only question is why, at almost the height of the ice age, did they find relics at this place?
Standard theories of the ice age are wrong. There is no reason for the ice cap to be on the Hudson Bay, unless the poles were different then.
Mammoths, who eat 5-7 hundered pounds of bark and grass a day in Siberia at any time in the past with current models?

I don't think so, Tim.

No, the Poles weren't different then. They still liked kielbasa.

If you follow blams arguments, which make sense to me, the migration was from east to west. I don't buy into the Southeast Asia argument.
