Now we know where "he whose name shall not be spoken" gets it from. A cave in France contains a remarkable stone construction figure that dates back to 176,500 (+/- few millennia) ago. A research article in the journal "Nature" provides details but the popular media has picked up on the story. One sources is the following: http://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/found-circles-of-stones-arranged-by-neanderthals-176500-years-ago?utm_source=Boomtrain&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=20160530&bt_email=pali...@yahoo.com&bt_ts=1464619845868 Another is: http://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2016/05/the-astonishing-age-of-a-neanderthal-cave-construction-site/484070/ And the Nature article can be accessed here: http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/vaop/ncurrent/full/nature18291.html NOTE: this is behind a paywall so go through your school library.
And it probably is not fair to lump "you know who" with the Neanderthals since they appear to have had better manners. ;-) -Mike Palij New York University m...@nyu.edu --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: arch...@mail-archive.com.
