Humans In Britain 800k YBP

[Digit]

I suspect that it was Homo Mysterious as THERE AIN'T NO PENGUINS IN THE NORTH ATLANTIC.

Roy.

[Minimalist]

Sure. NOW. They ate them all!

[Digit]

There never has been any Min, alternatively no record, cave art etc, nor survivors anywhere in the north. Also there disappearance exists only where you promulgate the need for them to be eaten, ie, hoofing it from Europe to the new World, for which also no evidence exists.
Also as I pointed out Fiennes found walking on sea ice as being something to be avoided, smooth it ain't!

There never has been any Min,

I guess you've never heard this old joke, Dig?

A large, well established, lumber camp advertised that they were looking for a good Lumberjack. The very next day, a skinny little man showed up at the camp with his axe, and knocked on the head lumberjacks' door.
The head lumberjack took one look at the little man and told him to leave.
"Just give me a chance to show you what I can do," said the skinny man.
"Okay, see that giant tree over there?" said the lumberjack. "Take your axe and go cut it down."
The skinny man headed for the tree, and in five minutes he was back knocking on the lumberjack's door.
I cut the tree down," said the man.
The lumberjack couldn't believe his eyes and said, "Where did you get the skill to chop down trees like that?"
"In the Sahara Forest," replied the puny man.
"You mean the Sahara Desert," said the lumberjack.
The little man laughed and answered back, "Oh sure, that's what they call it now!"

I have actually Min, but I feel that RS's theories seem to become more and more detailed as the evince get less.
Take cave art, Seals and other marine species, but no Penguins, if so many were eaten that we wiped out millions of them then they would have been an important part of diet. Just how many people were marching to the New World?

Depends which episode you mean. HE from the west, 500K years ago, or HS from the east 18K years ago.

BTW, wiping out penguins is even easier than you think: their eggs are yummie! And waiting to be picked up!

Jokes are no good if you have to explain them. I'll just quietly give up and go sit in a corner and drink!

Only if they exist though RS and only at certain times of the year.

HE from the west, 500K years ago,

Again no evidence.

It's alright Min, I did get it, so you come out now.

Roy.

[Minimalist]

Hic!

[Rokcet Scientist]

Too late.
Again.

[Rokcet Scientist]

Again no evidence.

Plenty evidence. It only needs to be found or recognized. 99% of it however is under 400 feet of seawater.
And then there is Charlie Hatchett's collection of thousands of handaxes, scrapers and points, or there's Valsequillo.
Of course you must want to see it, and connect the dots. The Club doesn't, as we know.
And now you too try to torpedoe the concept?
Didn't know you were a member.

Plenty evidence. It only needs to be found or recognized.

Well when it's recovered we shall be able to discuss it, till then it's with the underwater items awaiting discovery, like Atlantis!

Charlie's been collecting for decades, Roy. And Valsequillo was identified 30 or 40 years ago, wasn't it? So you have my permission to discuss it now!

till then it's with the underwater items awaiting discovery, like Atlantis!

No, not like Atlantis. Atlantis has been a legend for millennia, but never a scrap has been found. But offshore archeaology is not a legend at all. It's very real! Remember Bob Ballard's Euxine expedition?

Now mix that with archaic hominids and we have "offshore paleo-anthropology". A discipline I have just invented...

[Digit]

Charlie's been collecting for decades, Roy. And Valsequillo was identified 30 or 40 years ago, wasn't it?

Granted, and that has what to do with the UK?

Parallels.
If there were hominids in Britain 780K BP, how 'smart' is it to assume there were no hominids in the Americas around the same time? Especially since thousands of clues (Charlie's handaxes, Valsequillo, etc.) confirm that?
