[QUOTE]Originally posted by Doug M: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by rasol: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Clyde Winters: [qb] I read the article back in 1979. After revisiting the article today I see that I had summarized the findings of all three authors (Wendorf, Clark and Ehret) in my post and found that Ehret claimed that the Natufian culture is related to other Nile Valley sites. Ehret did not claim that the Natufians came from Nubia specifically he said: "Then between approximately 10,000 and 9,000 BC intensive grass collection appeared suddenly in Palestine with the establishment of the Natufian culture and after 9000 BC begins to turn up in the archaeology of the Iranian fringe of Mesopotamia. The Ibero-Maurusian tool kit shows clear relationship to that of the cultures of Nubia associated with the earliest grass collection. The Natufian industry does not show such obvious links understandably since it arose 3000 or more years later and considerable change, could have taken place over such a span. But Natufian does have typological similarities with materials from some Northern Nile sites, and so again has apparent African connections".(p.163) [/qb][/QUOTE]Thank you for providing the quote. I do agree that it shows and African connection, I don't agree that it shows an African origin for Natufian. I doubt Ehret would agree that such a claim can be inferred from what was presented. [/qb][/QUOTE]Yep. African affiliation would have been GOOD enough. [/QB][/QUOTE]
