LMAO
Hunting by human is the give away that this is not the case (and is following a PC script) at all for the cause of the Younger Drays as reported here; many strikes were all over the world, but the most were on the ice fields covering northern America and Canada.
The evidence points to multiple impacts of comet debris - many one mile or more in diameter - lasting for 10 years as the Earth passed through the Taurid cloud twice each year. The bombardment went on for 100 years with the first 10 years being the most intense.
Most of North America was burned by years long firestorms - the animals and Clovis people who survived the fires died shortly there after when another one mile rock hit the Ice Cap at an oblique angle. Gigantic shards of ice were blasted thousands of feet into the air. When they came down they shattered, slicing and dicing everything from Nebraska to the Carolinas and put out the raging fires. There were few surviving humans, heavily traumatized, and none of the mega fauna lived.
Uh no. A myth can also be a traditional story not known to be a fact.
I just find it interesting that it looks like all the flood myths from around the world may indeed have a basis in fact.
The impact crater for the dinosaur killer was found in the Gulf of Mexico off of the Yucatan
Yup. Interesting book on the topic called Magicians of the Gods by Graham Hancock. Theorizes an ancient higher civilization was wiped out by these events.
But does a good job of explaining the evidence of the impact.
It would also almost depopulate North America, explaining why so many languages and cultures seem to have originated in South America though it was settled later than the North.
That’s also a time frame around the time the first settled agriculturists and villages are popping up, so you have a stronger oral tradition and people who notice sea levels rose.
*ping*

Randall Carlson has done the yeoman’s work on the Younger-Dryas Impact Theory.

True.
The glacial maximum - and CO2 minimum - occurred around 20,000 years ago.
Not sure about temps - that may have been earlier
The Earth had been warming for 7,000 years when large animals went extinct.
Uh, yeah. Words mean things. You don’t get to redefine them when someone points out that you are using them wrong.
Interesting timing. I just watched a video by Graham Hancock on this very subject. It’s long but thorough scientific presentation of facts that support the theory.

For anyone who is interested.
I’m so sick and tired of these idiots blaming everything bad in the earth’s history on asteroids.
They get such a bad rap.
Next we’ll hear from the Left/Media that asteroids are RACIST.
Fuuunnnyyyy. I needed this.
Right.

Definition of myth
1a : a usually traditional story of ostensibly historical events that serves to unfold part of the world view of a people or explain a practice, belief, or natural phenomenon
The events are not PROVEn yet. Hence myth.
What fun and beneficial parts of civilization do we have to give up in order to prevent the next one?
