News article: Lehite settlement found on shores of Persian Gulf!

NOT!!! Gotcha! LOL!

Just a very interesting article on early Neanderthal & Homo Sapiens occupation of the Persian Gulf area and what it means to archeology/anthropology.

Alas, no, there was no place called "Nehom," "Nahom," or "NHM," named, either. Though I wonder if Mr. Ash will be investigated by an encampment called NIMH as an extreme example of Homo Hallucinatus soon. Heh!

I Was With Them Until the Mention of the "Flood Myth"

Civilization 70-100,000 years ago?

Without agriculture or domesticated animals?

Or a fossil record?

As far as I can tell (and admittedly I haven't done a lot of reading; I just rely on others), the genetic data on the "Out of Africa" hypothesis is solid...

And in a related story...
