[QUOTE="Harte, post: 191700, member: 443"] Actually, as far as evidence is concerned, Ancient Egyptian is considered to be the oldest form of writing. It certainly predates anything from India, but cuneiform might be older - we just haven't found any that old yet. How so? Please link to this information that moves man back. Any species from the genus Homo is correctly called "human." Perhaps you've misunderstood some lazy journalist's story. The oldest known human ([I]Homo Habilis - [/I]2 million years old or so) was discovered by Louis Leaky (actually it was by his wife Mary, who discovered the skullcap sticking out of the ground) in Tanzania in 1955. Nothing earlier than [I]Habilis[/I] has ever been found (though there's no doubt some earlier ones that existed, IMO.) No, they don't. Actually, the only known population bottleneck among our ancestors goes all the way back to [I]Australopithecus[/I]. Your 70,000 years ago example is the Toba eruption. Turns out that there's no evidence of a population bottleneck stemming from that (admitted) catastrophe. [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toba_catastrophe_theory#Criticism']Wiki[/URL] Regarding your second example, I've never heard of that and I can't find any information on it. If you could provide some, I'd gladly read it. Harte [/QUOTE]
