[QUOTE]Originally posted by supercar: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by trexmaster: [b] Also, this is an elephant species only known thanks to fossilized bones. Who is to say its ears are too small? This is an extinct species we're talking about. [/b][/QUOTE] I have yet to hear of an elephant with ears that size in proportion to its body size. Unless, I get scientific evidence of the existance of such an elephant, I will not hold that view as truth. If these elephants have been extinct, once again, why is it that the Olmec people had them in their artwork, but their ancestors didn't bother depicting the elephants in their artwork? The ancestors were supposed to have passed on information of these animals onto the Olmecs. That the Olmecs were able to depict these animals, while their ancestors didn't, may be because their ancestors weren't familiar with such animal. This would make sense expecially, if we hold true that the elephants were extinct for 10,000 years. That being the case, then it makes sense to come to the conclusion that the Olmecs may have got their ideas of elephants from another culture! Until someone can explain why there were no artwork of elephants leading in progression to the Olmec depictions, there is no reason to rule out the fore-mentioned possibility. [/QB][/QUOTE]
