CHAPTER ONE: From ‘Hell’ and Back.

- The Canadian Encyclopedia says: “The ancestors of the Iroquois can be traced backwards in New York State by archaeological evidence to at least 500 BC. And possibly as far back as 4,000 BC. The distinctive Iroquois culture of the historic period seems to have developed by about 1000 AD.” In order to take the Iroquois back to 4000 BC one has to find the Megwi and Adena before them were once people who lived in Poverty Point where Eurasiatic technology existed and tall people thrived in the Keltic mound building tradition.

CHAPTER TWO: Manitou’s Mounds and Mississippi Mud.

- Professor Jesse Jennings wrote what the Smithsonian called ‘authoritative’ and in its third edition says: “…are all the high cultures of the New World resultant from a diffusion of ideas, customs, artifacts, and religious-social practices of the OLD WORLD?”
- He also says: “Even more unusual at the two sites was the microflint work. The (more…)

World of Warcraft: Cataclysm Review ? Don’t stand in fire By Jake

Saturday, July 23rd, 2011
Archaeology

World of Warcraft: Cataclysm Cataclysm is the third expansion in the World of Warcraft series by Blizzard and has been long awaited by many. The Shattering of the world by the reemergence of Deathwing has allowed for Blizzard to redo both Kalimdor and Eastern Kingdoms to revitalize the game, while giving the player base another annoying boss to get excited about killing later in the expansion. It also afforded them with the ability to put forth several other changes, increasing the level cap to 85 and adding a few new zones including Vashj’ir, which is completely underwater. Goblins and Worgen were also added as playable races and several new race/class combinations. A unique profession, Archaeology, which requires one to farm endlessly for unique rewards, has also been added to the game.
What’s Good The Shattering – The Shattering was a good excuse for Blizzard to finally redo the entire world and fix awful questing zones that were almost entirely neglected by the (more…)

The Age of the Human Race

Friday, July 15th, 2011
Archaeology

Through the last decades science has struggled to estimate the age of the human race. Obviously, evolution would insist this occurred a long time ago, as it would take an incredible span of time for the first human-like creature (the cave man or monkey man) to develop into the sophisticated humans of today.

First, it must be observed that current estimates for the age of mankind are still all over the board. The lack of reliable dating methods for organic material is a serious challenge for all paleo-anthropologists. This might surprise you, but the only reliable dating method for organic material is Carbon-14 dating. This procedure can date organic material such as bones and teeth accurately but only to a maximum of 25,000-30,000 years. Dating older organic material is nothing more than guesswork. In many cases these guesses rely on “leap of faith” assumptions by dating the rocks found near the organic material in question, wildly asserting these (more…)

Archaeology

The Greek island of Crete was the home of the Minoans, an ancient civilisation who preceded even the ancient Greeks. The Minoan civilisation is in fact the oldest of all European civilisations and was the first to use a written language. Considering that Minoan palaces on Crete were built 4000 years ago and devastated when the Greek Island of Santorini erupted 3600 years ago, it is surprising that so much of them still remains.

A travel tip for finding a holiday destination in Crete that combines the best in beach vacations with the exploration of three Minoan palaces, is to stay in the resort of Matala. Matala was just a sleepy fishing village, that very few Non-Cretans had visited until it was discovered by groups of hippies in the 60′s. Stories, claiming that Bob (more…)
