I happened upon an AP article that just caught my eye. Hopefully, I'm not sending out old news! But it looks like that they found 32 black flints, in river sediments in Pakefiield in eastern England, that dated back to 700,000 years.
I think I need to find and re-read my Mummies of Urmichee (spelling?) book again. This find will make the re-reading much more enthralling (to me anyway)! I know this is *way* early for SCA (for those interested in SCA), but my research pathways have certainly expanded! I can hardly *wait* for the details of this find to be published, even if there's no mention of textiles, this is still useful for development of theories and conjectures.
