Second hypothesis they would advance would be "old bone used in much late manufacture"; their third hypothesis would be claims of outright fraud.
In all three scenarios, the result would be the same: bury it in an unmarked box in a dark corner of a university museum's subbasement "to await further curating".
The original article’s title is “Southeast Asian Island” because Timor is in the Indian Ocean not the Pacific Ocean.
Half inch wide and an inch long?
mighty small harpoon.
Wilson STOP THAT!....... LoL...
Is it just me or is “earlier than previously thought” the new meme?
Thanks for the ping!
Beat me to it. I so enjoy all the "much earlier than previously thought" admissions of late.
Back in the 1980’s I was chatting with a woman archeologist in an East Coast bar. She said out in California she had taken part in a dig where they found human/hominid? remains suspected to be 200,000 to 300,000 years old. Yes, that old! But the information was apparently being supressed, disrespected, etc. She was pissed.
Yes. There are older archaeologists who have reputations based on humans coming here after 12,000 B.C.
These guys are blocking the information and discredit anyone finding older sites. It is always politics.
