Stranger In A New Land (Archaeology)

Image: JOHN GURCHE PORTRAIT OF A PIONEER With a brain half the size of a modern one and a brow reminiscent of Homo habilis, this hominid is one of the most primitive members of our genus on record. Paleoartist John Gurche reconstructed this 1.75-million-year-old explorer from a nearly complete teenage H. erectus skull and associated mandible found in Dmanisi in the Republic of Georgia. The background figures derive from two partial crania recovered at the site.

Axes and knives 700,000 years ago? I find that hard to accept.

Unless they left a map of their travel plan...How the hell do they know which direction they came from?

[Wiseghy]

I thought humans only went back about 400k or so. Also, would something with only a 1/2 size brain be considered “human”, or a non-human pre-curser.

Carbon 14 dating is useless for objects older than about 60,000 years.

[Publius6961]

This can't possibly be real.
Unless they found evidence of a visit by Helen Thomas.

Just saying...
