Interesting.

By the way, the article says the canoe is 9,000 years old, but the dates for the village don't seem to match that. Is the canoe from an earlier time than the village?

Was there the skeleton of a news babe who had been reporting the flood sitting in it? LOL.

If the village was from around 6,000 years B.C. , and we are living 2,000 A.D.; that is only 8,000 years ago not 9,000. Where did the extra thousand years come from?

The story isn't complete. They still haven't explained the three somewhat huge ancient pyramids in Italy. A lot was happening in Italy way back when. There are ancient ruins all over Europe that they don't have any idea who built. A few clues here and there like Cheddar Man and Otze, but not enough to tie it all together. At least they didn't call the canoe a religious artifact.

A day is as a thousand years and a thousand years is like a day. So what if one day is missing? LOL

Shhhhhhhhh......
Don't tell anyone. But my daughter, a geologist, tells me it is EASY to "make" a fossil in a lab and they DO pass all the tests.
