The prints were left by fishermen looking to safeguard their weirs (river barriers used for fishing) in a storm 5,000 years ago...


Asked for comment, President Obama exclaimed: "Actually, they didn't build that. Those footprints? It was then that I carried them."

There is a Viking graveyard called Lindholm Hoje near Aalborg, which sits near a huge fjord. One day in the 11th century, a sandstorm blew in and buried some farm fields near the edge of the graveyard. A local villager drove a two-wheeled carriage over the field, probably in an attempt to flee the storm. The sand covered the field and the tracks for almost a thousand years until 1956 when archeologists began excavating the site. You can see the carriage tracks and the footprints of the owner plainly. It is eerie to think that you’re looking at traces of a man who was alive around the time of the Battle of Hastings.

“That’s one small print for a Neanderthal, one large foot for Homo Sapiens...”

That's really cool, bringing the history home.

It's not the same thing, of course, but at Dinosaur Ridge near Denver you can see Dino footprints, frozen in an ancient embankment. It's so cool thinking your standing in the exact same place where those creatures walked.
