If id didn’t have traces of humans it wouldn’t be much of an archaeological discovery now, would it?

80,000 or 800,000 years ago?

I'm a fairly competent lithic technologist -- but, I'd have to handle and examine those specimens --personally -- to see if I detect any clues that they were modified by "humanoids".

From what I can see in that photo, they look exactly like -- rocks...

Uh-oh. Are those elongated alien heads I see?

Better call Giorgio Tsoukalos for a reading.

I puzzles me that, excluding some bad experiences around An Khe in 1966, why humans would wander out of Africa, even really ancient, ones to settle in such a horrid place thousands of miles from the ancestral home.

I was thinking Moslem Anthopithcanies gone mad with Jihad.

Why would anyone, in their right mind, such as they may have had in that day and age, leave readily available Wildebeest and other readily available warm furry dinners to battle malaria in the highland of VN.

To my mind, such as I have left, am thinking that there is some serious problems with the Idea of human of human migrations. (Thanks Blam and others.)

I am beginning to to think that we haven't a censored clue about human origins or migrations.

80,000 years ago -> 800,000 years ago?

80,000 or 800,000 years? The article and caption are different.
