An Archaeological Moment in Time

The orox wasn't the original bull. The book of genesis was.

Indeed. Just wachted your videoes. Great stuff! We crave more. Thanks :-)

Aron, Could you please write more of these sort videos? As this one is the best I think you have made so far.. I want to see more :x

Aron, which font did you use for the last ~10 seconds for the upper-points?

very, very interesting video man! ive always been interested in these pe-historic subjects, and reading jean auel's books just boosted my fascination! btw, are you familiar with those books?

"but think of the bonanza to be had from driving a herd of mammoth over a cliff (for example)"

And since they (seemingly) are in endless supply... no worries.
By the time it was noticed that the herds were becoming smaller and less frequent, the cascade was in motion.

@Speaker: Yes I've seen some of the buffalo drive sites of early native cultures. Amazing piles of bones with clear marks of butchery on them. But it still feels like we're missing something. It just doesn't seem like we had the population density in NA until the Missippian culture near Cahokia for humans to be the prime cause. Do know of anything on population density in NA during paleolithic times?

Admittedly low, from the available evidence.
BUT...
I've always felt that there is "something" missing THERE, as well.
The "available evidence" seems underdeveloped.
To have 13-14000 year old humans in S America, it seems something is missing in N America.
Preservational Bias? Research bias?
I dunno.

@Speaker: Probably a little of both. What we see of the environment has been radically altered by modern agriculture and human use. Then we start getting into examination of native American pre-history, and it gets politicised into an assault on culture ( vis-a-vi Kennewick man). It's all so crazy. And in the meantime, data gets lost. And the world, as whole, is less for it.
