Some things I know about this region:

* Linguists claim to have traced the origins of all Indo-European languages to this region.

* The fresh water Black Sea was flooded with salt water in 5,600BC. Some speculate that this was Noah's Flood.

* Mount Ararat, where Noah's Ark is supposed to have 'landed' is in the region.

* IMO, this region was inhabited by proto-Celtics in this period.

You realize that even if he's right, the Islamophiles will never go for it. They've been cozying up the the Religion of Peace for a thousand years. Anti-Semitism is an integral part of EUropean culture. He's asking EUrope to give up it's most cherished notions about their favoritist almost-civilization, Islam.

Think of the civilizations or the ruins thereof that were covered with water when the ocean entered the Black Sea. The Black sea gained something like 300' in depth in a very short time.

This omits the inter-glacial societies. The repeaated freeze out migrations into the "Turkic/Holy Land/Babylon" territory is what perfected the "war" gene in we the survivors.

Older findings will surely be discovered off the north coast of Turkey. Perhaps bodies and all.
