So this is pretty cool. It seems our life span on the planet is growing extensively every day. Apparently humans have been here twice as long as previous thought. but what is exceptionally interesting or peculiar to say the least is “advanced stone and bone tools more than 75,000 years ago, but that many of these artifacts seemed to disappear by 60,000 years ago...modern behavior appeared in the past and was subsequently lost before becoming firmly established.” I wonder how this could have happened But certain parts of the article seem to provide a small glimmer of hope for those stoned ape theory believers.
