| Re: 5200 B.C. Is New Date for Farms in Egypt We all know that Egypt is older then what "experts" think. Hell based on erosion the Sphinx is dated back to 10000 BC not exactly in sync with the rest of the "experts" theories.

| Re: 5200 B.C. Is New Date for Farms in Egypt Look into Gobleki Tepe, near Wadi Faynan, where a lot of the more interesting neolithic sites have been found. It's dated to about 9600 BCE, shows signs of extensive cultivation of genetically wild cereal grain, perhaps being the source of domesticated grain mutation in west Asia, and it contains limestone pillars ranging from eight to twenty feet tall and carved with nothing but flint tools. Every year we are finding new sites that spit in the face of the accepted theories of our sociocultural evolution. |

Dr. Robert Schoch, the "ancient sphinx" theorist and geophysicist, has dated the sphinx to around 6,000 BCE and then says "or possibly earlier." Harte |

Last I herard, they've only estimated a "probable" date for when agriculture actually began, and it predates Göbekli tepe. On top of this, at this time the consensus is that these people were still hunter-gatherers and that they built the site as a place to hold some sort of ritual ceremonies. No evidence of any domesticated plants or animals has been found (yet) at the site. However, there's no doubt that agriculture had to have begun with the cultivation of wild plants, so maybe not finding domesticated ones is not that unexpected, right? Or, did you mean the carvings?
