  1. change in ocean circulation due to meltwater, possibly triggered by a meteor swarm

  3. I'm thinking he means the peak of the diversity.

  4. I like that theory. They cached because they knew they were coming back. They made a full hunting season's worth of points and had them ready, near the hunting grounds. Given the quality of the long points I also wonder if it was important to "put your best foot forward" and honor the animals by giving them the highest work of art that hands could produce. Or something like that. Travelling light is underrated today due to cars!

  5.  @johntillman6068  That's what i said, meltwater. I did not say a meteor was required, only possible. A meteor could trash an ice dam. A meteor signal was found in GISP2 very close to the meltwater pulse and the change in Agassiz drainage. It could well be coincidence. But it seems highly likely it did occur. A meteor swarm could have been bad news, even if it didn't trigger the meltwater pulse.

  6. I studied Hawaiian birds at UH for a number of years. There were many bird extinctions when people first got to Hawaii, but for the next 1600 years there were none, until contact. The first extinction wave was probably largely due to rats, rather than hunting.

  7. I think the concept of 'simple' is complex.

  8. We are all the same worth.

  9.  @Deadlyaztec27  But we do have an instinct to hold the breath. The body remembers because the instinct is programmed into the brain. Curiously, scientists have little idea how genes produce instincts.

  10.  @chadklaren9537  And the Clovis who survived the Younger Dryas then became the Folsom people, it seems. So they survived but the culture changed.

  11.  @EdinburghFive  Yeah I've read that ANE Ancient Northern Eurasians were a major ancestor of both Native Americans and European Hunter Gatherers. It seems that some Siberians got really good at life in the far north and spread far and wide East and West...

  12. Yup, people have replicated Hawaiian voyaging canoes and sailed all over the Pacific including to Easter Island, using traditional navigation.

  13.  @degew9367  I read somewhere that I am the best. I wrote it down and I read it.

  15.  @andyjackson3414  "Responding to this critique in 1990, Lovelock stated, "Nowhere in our writings do we express the idea that planetary self-regulation is purposeful, or involves foresight or planning by the biota"." -wiki/ gaia hypothesis

  16.  @andyjackson3414  Yeah there's a lot possible for a system of feedbacks and memory, without any explicitly forward-looking logic! It is even possible to evolve sub-units (people) that have such logic. Truly woolly mammoth. Since the game of Life/ cellular automata can be universal Turing machines, and actual life is at least that complex... the conclusion is Douglas Adams was right. The earth is a computer, but what is the question it is computing?

  17.  @andyjackson3414  A hammer might be the gate in a transistor. One way, it nails boards together. The other way it un-nails boards.

  18. Yup, "Ancient North Eurasian" is a major ancestor of both Native Americans and European hunter gatherers.

  19. A small population would carry only a portion of the entire species' genetic diversity.

  21.  @MOEMUGGY  What are the species names of the Parrot and Rail from Easter Island? I'm trying to look them up but not turning up much detail...

  22. They dulled those sections

  23. our ESP is also very high

  24.  @jasonshumate6456  Brilliant and dedicated! Just read the detailed, comprehensive, and convincing Powell 2022: Premature rejection in science: The case of the Younger Dryas Impact Hypothesis

  25. Denisovan perhaps?

  26.  @justmenotyou3151  sorry wrong thread. Lacher See does not match the timing of meteor/comet signals.

  28. There is also a platinum spike in the GISP ice core that is a million times background levels, at 12,900 BP. This hints at an asteroid rather than a comet, or both.

  29.  @wrmlm37  yup. Telling latitude is easy by the stars, longitude is harder, it is partly done by dead reckoning. They also used waves, clouds, and birds.

  30. I agree. The natural laws are rich with emergent phenomena from atoms to planets to life. It is creative in many ways, so it was probably all due to a creative force.

  31. Yup, hairdo was part of tribal identity; still is. They spent a lot of time on it. They should tell the artists to imagine they wanted to look fantastic

  32. Grandma Trogson knows the songs for it.
    2
  33. Yes! In fact hairdo is often a big tribal identifier. Great care would go into the hair. Also give them po boys hats!

  34. True, but also, lighter skin makes more Vitamin D from faint sunlight.

  35. Warm climates like where...?

  36.  @oldschoolzone5711  You said they lived all over, including warm climates. But Neanderthal is shown as mostly in cool to cold regions. Denisovans ranged from cold to hot regions as you say. Neanderthal map shows from Spain to Siberia, which at that time was icy cold, except maybe in the Levant area.

  37.  @oldschoolzone5711  Ok, yes, so they came out of Africa, and as they lived in colder climes, they adapted to the cold.

  38.  @dec1085  Yeah the gains in performance are not very dramatic. it could all be explained by training, equipment, diet, and numbers of people competing, possibly. It could be evolution but it's too short a time to tell so far, modern sports are only ~100 years old

  39. yeah once the sun returned and the land recovered from ash, it could be a very rich environment. yellowstone after the fire...

  40. cite source?

  41. Aha! Ok yes, Mal'ta!! They were major ancestors of both the Europeans and Native Americans of today. They were not closely related to Siberians today, but people sometimes call them Siberians because of the location by lake Baikal. That's probably a source of confusion. PS I clicked your link before it got deleted lol and then found a recent paper by the main author there ... Eske Willerslev... Nature 2017 "Tracing the peopling of the world through genetics" Great stuff thanks!! It seems that the Malt'aese were studs. They probably invented some major arctic technology, and colonized tundra across the northern world.

  43.  @strictlyyoutube6881  Maybe a wolf to pug to wolf would give a pulf, rather than a wolf? Pugs may have gone too far, they may not have the genetic variation any more. But it would be an interesting experiment.

  44.  @NORTH02  Why not just "BP" Before Present? CE and BCE are still religious. Not that I have any problem with religion. I just like BP because I don't have to add or subtract.

  46. To be native, does a creature have to have lived in a location forever?

  47. Snares could also work. There are 1001 ways to catch a bird. 1. Find an egg. 2. Find a nest with chicks. 3. Find a dead bird and re-animated it. 4. etc...

  48. I would contest the idea they are less developed. The oldest musical instrument known in the world was Neanderthal. Their brains were larger. Some of the cave art is Neanderthal. Counter examples?

  49. If the time doesn't fit we must acquit. Clovis man is innocent!
