Some people go around thinking that we know all there is to know about the past, but there is so much more out there waiting to be discovered.

When it came time for cities, cities appeared all over the earth. What was it that caused this to happen? Seems like only some kind of technology would cause such a revolution. The discovery of the Wheel? The Cam-phone?

In the print copy of National Review this week, they state that this find is baloney concocted to support the "Chinese Center of Civilization" argument of the regime.

Indeed the Yangtze area was one of the first in the world to produce pottery - an amazing 13,000 years ago. Apparently, along about that time, some of them grabbed their Clovis-pointed spears, said, "This place is going to pot!" and headed northeastward for that new land bridge... ;-}

... so far revealed the sites of nine ancient towns in the Middle Yangtze Valley between Wuhan and Jiangling... Jiangling--Sounds like a nice name for a Christmas village.

"The largest cities had up to three miles of defensive walls." It seems to me that inhabitants of these first early cities
all had one thing in common--they were all afraid of something.
