Stone-tipped spears predate existence of humans by 85,000 years


Remains of the world’s oldest known stone-tipped throwing spears, described in a new paper, and so ancient that they actually predate the earliest known fossils for our species by 85,000 years.

There are a few possible implications, and both are mind-blowing. The first is that our species could be much older than previously thought, which would forever change the existing human family tree.

The second, and more likely at this point, is that a predecessor species to ours was extremely crafty and clever, making sophisticated tools long before Homo sapiens emerged.

Curious information. There have also been accounts of apparent man-made objects found in geologic formations dating back millions of years. Most of them have been found in coal and all are unexplained.

Many years ago (1987-88) I was involved in a couple exercises held in the Nazca desert in Peru. There was a town called Ica, where they had displays of carved stones that were found all over the desert. The volume was such that it would not have been possible for them to be locally fabricated hoaxes. We went out with a Peruvian unit and I found a stone with a hummingbird carved on it.

The person, in Ica, who had the display was associated with the author of Chariots of the Gods. Some of the stones on display showed humans riding large dinasoars. Strange! This link does not do the details justice:

Taken from the last paragraph of story.
To do so would be to admit that they are completely wrong about our origins and thus all of the text books used to indoctrinate out children with.
I believe personally a typo exist with the 3d from last word should be "our".

Agree?

Interesting read never-the-less. Kinda like watching the end of Planet of the Apes with Charlton Heston when we (the movie viewer) all see the remains of the Statue of Liberty. Only flaw in movie was the clock inside Mr Heston & Crew craft should have been off by a min of 2 million years & not the 2,000 shown just from the geological evidence shown throughout the movie - Oh yes, I did watch it again the other night.

HH6 said a lot of the apes in movie looked like me, she could see the resemblance.

Reading about glacial moraine I needed to visit google for a visual understanding after reading link 6000years.org of the scrappers being found.

These finds are really amazing.

No how do I think Arlo Guthrey put a letter to him under that pile of junk in Alice's Restaurant nor in a glacial moraine.

I quit listening to the "experts" when I found out that the arrogant cock suckers would find some isolated toe bone...and no other bones...and extrapolate not only the age of the dinosaur, but also, exactly what it looked like, type of food it ate, where it mated, and where it gave birth.

They're all full of bullshit, and their bleating when they're proven wrong amuses me!
