That's the late caveman era, isn't it?

Ping to a very interesting stone age pottery find.

They got older pottery for sale on eBay every day.

Since they were men and were living in caves, yes. The early stone age (paleolithic) times ended about 10,000 years ago and the new stone age (neolithic) period started about 7000 years ago. (7000-10,000 was predictably enough the mesolithic period). So these artifacts would be placed towards the end of the old Stone Age and on the cusp of the Middle Stone Age.

I'm still waiting for the first Geico caveman posting.

Don’t let G-Cube see this!

Cannot be true! What with the earth only 6000 years and all the other puff creation!!

[Just mythoughts]

I think they are fudging their how old numbers. I do notice they have quite a span of a time line they have associated with this find. And NO I do not believe this earth is 6,000 years old.

Interesting. I took a Chinese archeology class about five years ago and at that time there was a huge gap in the Chinese archeaological record during the early neolithic. They’ve either closed that gap or this pottery is pre-Chinese.

Obviously a fraud.

Many on FREEP will vouch that the earth is only 6,000 years old.

[Don Corleone]

It will appear as a marked down special at a Walmart near you soon.
