Is this really the first evidence? I thought there had been evidence earlier.

Mammoth went extinct during the present half of the Holocene... aka, within recorded history.

Couple in Siberia and a couple in America that are dated to about half of what this one is dated. But apparently this is the first found in what is geographic “Europe” rather than “Asia” like the Siberian finds.

I guess the bones were that age not the flint. Can you even carbon date flint?

“Can you even carbon date flint?”

The arrowheads have a tint patent number on them. They’re easy to miss though.

It would be cool to be a biblical paleologist and find that elusive T-Rex with a spear in its side

“We finally have a +smoking gun+, the first direct evidence of how these animals were hunted”

Saw what! FIRST EVIDENCE? I had a Time-Life book from fifty years ago showing Homo Erectus hunting mammoths in Europe long before this! It even had photos of the dig. It was SETTLED SCIENCE! A disbeliever was considered a science Heretic!

So which is it? Were mammoths hunted thousands of years earlier, or later.
