Must have been those big-brained Cro-Magnons or the Neanderthals.

Regardless, the Last Glacial Maximum (18-23,000 years ago) drove them all into the southern refuges.

35,000 years in the future they will be digging up all kinds of relics in the country that used to be the USA that depict elephants. They will determine there was a mass extinction in 2008!

Not so fast, this comes from the land that brought you the “Hitler Diaries”.

It’s a toss-up between a mammoth carving, or something my dog excreted yesterday.

That's what I was thinking... only they will dig up a sculpture of a unicorn - from some 12 year old girl's bedroom - and determine that such beasts inhabited the region...

first modern humans some 35,000 years ago

As you allude to the lack of precision in the articles references, I am wondering about the "first modern humans some 85,000 years ago" who were just recently found to be making beads out of shells. Since the big question is yet, "When did modern behaviors such as speech and representational art first emerge and what was the relationship of the various Ice Age advances and retreats to human behavior?" This does represent an important find, however. Thanks for posting!

We went years without mammoth stories—now we get one or two a week. Why? How? I finally figured it out.

You two are doing this deliberately to drive me mad, aren’t you?

Well, it won’t work. I’ve got a new tin-foil outfit, form fitting from head to toe. (I sort of look like John Kerry in that famous pic.)

You mean we've broken things down that far?

Are there seperate lists for Columbian & Wooly, too? If so, which list has claim to the island pigmies ?

Right on, JimSEA.

We humans were birthed by the last glacial period.
Big brains, language, cultural interlocks, and other survival traits are the stuff of ice.

In this there can be no debate.
