Ahhh...O.K. Yeah, I've always read Chapter 2 as complementary to 1, not a different account.I thinks he's talking about chapter 1 as one and chapter 2 as another. Chapter 2 adds more details and so some interpret it as a different version.

As far as I know, Monk.With regard to Spirit Cave Man, the references cited by Charlie and then Gary date the mummy to 9000+ years. Is this legitimate?
Or 13,500 "calibrated" years ago, which I think is the way the Spirit Cave mummy is quoted (9,000 calibrated years). The Leanne burial at Wilson-Leonard was dated at 11,000 "calibrated" years or 9500 B.P. uncal.Quite legitimate. Clovis man entered NA via the Bering Strait land bridge 12000 yrs. ago, according to the mainstreamers.
Awesome news, Gary!It would seem the Kennewick Man issue established a legal precedent, and the 9,400-year-old remains of Spirit Cave Man has been determined NOT to be Native American. The Paiute/Shoshone tribes will lose this case and a DNA analysis will be forthcoming. Hooray!
According to one of the previous references, he was typed as Halpogroup X. I don't believe X migrated across asia iirc. I believe X spread across europe. Given the read hair, it supports the idea of a proto-european.Beagle wrote:Quite legitimate. Clovis man entered NA via the Bering Strait land bridge 12000 yrs. ago, according to the mainstreamers.
The National Geographic Genographic Project has X going across the land bridge iirc. It's a good study in light of what we now know. It has become very vogue when talking about genetics. My feelings are that much about it will change over time.Halpogroup X.

Is there another?
2 continues....Chapter 2
1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
This is more than adding details.....this is a significantly new version...a version in which the priests who wrote it wanted to make it crystal clear that women were to be subservient.21 And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;
22 And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.
Monk, I don't believe Spirit Cave Man has been through genetic analysis yet, otherwise we would have experienced a firestorm. Haplogroup X is mtDNA X, the maternal marker being used. A good source of analysis would be teeth. That marker wouldn't be a big deal since 3% of North American natives have mtDNA X. I am really interested in his yDNA male marker and that's where we would find a surprise. I don't believe it will be yDNA haplogroup Q, but something else that was evident in Eurasia during the late Pleistocene, early Holocene.According to one of the previous references, he was typed as Halpogroup X. I don't believe X migrated across asia iirc. I believe X spread across europe. Given the read hair, it supports the idea of a proto-european.
It seems some of the recent threads on this board are seeing more and more evidence that supports this, Beag. I do agree, however, it pays to stick with hardcore evidence rather than speculative theories.Beagle wrote:Recent fossil evidence has an early man possible entering NA on the Atlantic seaboard, like you are saying. I like to stick with fossil evidence.
Min, I can see what you're saying about a different version. I think I'll looked deeper into some of the original language and try to do my own interpretation rather than what I heard elsewhere. In any case I don't buy the subservient statement. I think if I wanted to dimish a woman's role I would had her being created from another part of the anatomy.Minimalist wrote:This is more than adding details.....this is a significantly new version...a version in which the priests who wrote it wanted to make it crystal clear that women were to be subservient.
