The Pleistocene-Holocene transition is a very significant period of time, because it marks what I believe is the true foundartions for the origins of civilisation, when we see the first permanent settlements in the Fertile Crescent followed by the onset of agriculture, and from then on humanity has developed exponentially.

From an archaeological point of view, it’s truly a fascinating time period, with so many incredible sites discovered in the past century, from Ancient Jericho in the West Bank, to Mureybet and Tell Qaramel in Syria, and Kortik Tepe, Gobekli Tepe and Karahan Tepe in Turkey.

The foundations of these sites were laid either just before, during or just after the Younger Dryas cold snap, which, according to platinum spike in the Greenland Ice Core data, began around 12,822 years ago and many parts of the world returned to glacial or near-glacial conditions, a change in climate that lasted around 1,000 or so years...

Dryas I might, I’ve never found reference to an Older Dryas. I think the Dryas is the Dryas, and the Younger Dryas was the relatively brief reprise as the oceans cooled when the large glacial meltwater lakes broke through the last of the ice and flowed in.

I may try that, but of course, I’d be reluctant to rely entirely on an AI summary of something. As a suggested way to generate a precis rather than use the YouTube-generated transcript, could be worth a try. Thanks for the link.

Since Canaan also didn’t exist during the Younger Dryas, no.

It’s his actual voice. You may notice that I wrote that his voice sucks way up at the top of the transcript.

“ It’s his actual voice. ”

Wow, that’s astonishing. All the very weird inflections, incorrect accents, mispronunciations. Is he not a native born English speaker?

I missed your remark. I usually skip over transcripts.

So, according to you, the ice age came AFTER the Flood. What a bunch of complete nonsense. If you had said that the flood came at the end of the Ice Age, then you might actually have a small chance of being correct. You see, when an ice age ends, that means that a lot of the ice melts. That very clearly means that the water has to go somewhere, and there’s a whole lot of it. More than enough to create a very large flood.

As for the “Septuagint” that you mentioned, which one? There have been dozens or hundreds of versions produced, not a single one of which is reliable, as any original was destroyed when the library at Alexandria burned. That is especially true if the “Septuagint“ that you are using contains any of the writings of the prophets, or the psalms - because those were never translated into the original Septuagint, only the Five Books of Moses (the Torah) was.

Your lack of both logic and facts is stunning.

It’s nice that he’s trying to get monetized from YouTube, I guess. It beats robodial fraud.
