Evidence seems to indicate that the size of the human brain has been the same for 70,000 years.

It is interesting to think about the implication that we humans have been *equally intelligent* for all this time and the only difference between us and them is that now, with writing and other information storage and communications abilities, we can build on already-discovered ideas and not have them die off in some tribal war or other death of an oral tradition.

It makes you look at all that archeological evidence of “advanced” technologies much differently.

The sooner the public gets away from Hollywood’s version of history the better. Why should our ancestors have been lumbering brutes with the intelligence of a flea?
Because it made for a good movie - along with all the men being ugly with shaggy hair and beards while the women were beauties who apparently just stepped out of the hair dresser’s.

Thanks decimon.

There was an article about prehistoric (maybe Neandertal?) "superglue" used to hold axe heads on the handles, or something. I just don't want to look. ;')

To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list.
