RE: The Land Of Myth and Dinosaurs!
I wish the original charlatans didn't ruin so much evidence and concoct such stupid stories that we now have to live with.
The age of dinosaurs is not that old.
Modern science likes to believe we are the most advanced humans have ever been. That it has been one long climb down from the trees and up the scientific ladder.
But, it has not been the case.
We are like the 10th advanced civilization on this planet.
And the earth has changed greatly and drastically.
So much so that we will probably never find anything from just 2 epochs ago. (3 advanced civilizations ago)
Why do we have tales of George and the Dragon?
Probably because there were still great lizards only a thousand years ago.
The ruins in Egypt have carvings of dinosaurs.
So, this linear progress thing will be thrown out soon, and then maybe we can get to really looking at our history.
No one wants to admit they were wrong, the latest news on Neanderthals ...they aren’t beast?
So, once again, new facts are changing the way we look at the past. The first depictions of Neanderthals shortly after the prototypical specimen was dug up in Germany's Neander Tal gorge in 1856 were definitely not the kind of person that you'd want in your neighborhood. A 1909 depiction based on the examination of a complete skeleton by the French paleontologist Marcellin Boule showed a stooped, club-carrying brute. Recent reconstructions show that they weren't really much more apelike than the early modern humans, who began appearing in Europe about 30,000 years ago.
