modern man(us) have been found that are 50-100,000 years old. No, not a missing link but people who developed agricultural skills

Hmmm. Ever wonder how they communicated? Don't you find it puzzling that there is no recorded history or writings found older than 5000 years ago?

There's a lot of things that don't fit with "modern man" that old. As far as I know, it hasn't been validated by true scientific investigation (like Darwinism). The age and nature of these "fossils" if they turn out to actually be true fossils are questionable.

They communicated orally and did pictures. There are intricate cave paintings which are 40,800 years old found in Spain. Just because man did not learn to write until fairly recently does not mean they were not man. We did not learn how to fly until the early part of the last century..does not mean we are not human because we were not flaying 5000 years ago. does it?

There was a house foundation found in England that is 11,500 years old.

Some of the paintings in the Cave of Altamira are estimated by thorium-230 dating to be between 25,000 and 35,000 years old. There are around 350 caves in France and Spain with artwork created by Paleolithic man. Secluded cave walls protected from the elements are one of the few mediums around likely to preserve writing or drawing over vast periods of time.

Great song, BTW, "The Caves of Altamira" by Steely Dan.

When they wrote it on the wall
When there wasn't even any Hollywood..."

Nice try, no cigar. Gobekli Tepe goes back 10,000 years. Animals can't carve sculptures and engineer megalithic structures. Only humans can.
