I saw a program a few weeks ago, that they have a dig going in Turkey that they figure is way over 14 thousand years old.

They have no idea at all who and what.

5000 years from now, some archeologist is going to unearth a garden gnome and think we idolized Bill Maher.

A third 5,000-year-old hand-carved figurine has been discovered during excavations on Orkney

I would like to see a picture of one of the machine carved figurines from 5000 years ago.
