A blog by Anthony North. I confess - I like this sort of thing. Not that there is any evidence of it's truth, but because of it's logic.The only way that man could have dispersed as he did would have involved a very early use of boats, thousands of years before we presently accept such technology existed. But would such technology have required a highly advanced man?
Not at all. Simple observation would have shown him that a log floats on water. Allow a couple of centuries of head scratching and he would have realised that if he sat on it, he would float too. Add a couple of millenia of innovation and he’d have begun to gouge it out.
It makes me think.
Thinking is good.
