I'm enjoying the new British discoveries in archaeology! Islands hold a special place when it comes to studying history. Separated from the mainland, they'll often preserve features that haven't been run over roughshod by conqueror after conqueror after conqueror.

Separated from the mainland Sometimes it is, like now. What actually encourages archaeological sites is that the British Isles have inclement weather. It's cold, the sun never shines, and nobody but deepwoods primitives and monks would want to live there--that's the kind of remains they will find. Until the tin mines, that is.

This just in from the department of

had to say something without thinking about it"...

"...The presence of charcoal suggests the people there made fires..."
(Is there some other non-fire related way to make charcoal?)
- - -
"...It would seem natural as the climate was cold and damp at the time..."
(And England's climate is now NOT cold and damp and fire is no longer needed?)

Wait - isn't this just more deception? Afterall, the earth is only 5,000 to 7,000 years old.
Sorry, couldn't resist. Just thought I'd get a jump on the strict Creationists before they showed up on this thread.

Rumor has it they also found a half empty can of charcoal lighter and a 250,000 year old bug zapper at the site.

Ed,
There is a 70K gap between the end of our previous subspecies and the beginning our our current one, and that 130K is being very generous. The evidence of our subspecies goes back about 40-50K.
How can that 70K gap exist if we are the descendents of the previous species? We aren't from Neandertals, right?
