Not surprising,
All these “A comet/asteroid caused Ice Age/Post Ice age extinctions” hypothesizes are just last ditch efforts to save the Myth of the Noble Savage.
It just hurts the liberal feelings that the “at one with nature” ancient man could have actually waged wars, committed genocide and hunted many species to extinction, so they try and blame it on comets/asteroids instead.

After watching a show the other night on how the Roman army wiped out the human sacrificing-cannibal-diet crazy mother Druids, I’m GLAD there have been some ancient tribes gone from the earth.
Thank you Rome!
