[QUOTE]Originally posted by kifaru: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Clyde Winters: [qb] This genetic evidence relates to 25,000-60,000 ybp. How does this genetic evidence relate to the period between 3000-1200 BC, when the earliest urban cultures and civilizations appear in the Sahara and spread to Ethiopia? . [/qb][/QUOTE]Well Clyde I must admit I have always had a feeling that the sahara held onto more secrets than it has revealed about the beginnings of human civilizations. The problem is that the sahara being that it is a desert, constantly shifts and may have covered coverd up much of any evidence that exist or may have existed. Maybe the problem is that we assume too much based on the few facts we have about the past. Such as thinking that because: We found 10,000 yr old article A in site X And We found 6,000 yr old article B in site Y that some culture in site A is the oldest culture. This doesn't take into account that we haven't excavated site C yet. Clyde do you know if any archeological work is being done around the lake chad region or any of the dry lakes or rivers in the sahara? [/QB][/QUOTE]
