https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ebu_gogo What makes this particularly interesting is that that Naga people live on the Island of Flores, home of Homo floresiensis wiki Homo floresiensis Reports of human-like creatures are found throughout the world. Homo floresiensis, which have been nicknamed Hobbits, indeed sound very much like hobbits. They lived in caves, had fire and tools, and even hunted dragons! They hunted Komodo Dragons, which at up to 400 pounds and 12-15 feet in length, were twice as large as today's dragons. That was quite a beast for a group of creatures only 3.5 feet tall to take down. How cool is that?!?! Turkish trading routes included this region thousands of years ago. It was even noted that the original legend of Saint Nicholas's [Turkish] little black elves, who were used to terrorize children in lore, sound much like the Ebu Gogo. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Companions_of_Saint_Nicholas Parallel lines of humanoids are being discovered all over the world. We now know that many human populations even contain Neanderthal DNA. It fires the imagination to think that many legends all over the world like those of the little black elves, not to mention Bigfoot, the Yeti, and Yowie, are potentially based in fact.
Genesis 6:4 King James Version (KJV) 4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.
All of this made me think of Dkinwalker ranch and the team of scientists who could not explain the supernatural events witnessed there over several years they spent there. Science was powerless to explain what was experienced there And it means dont bank on science. Things were seen that should not exist. Impossible events happened . So these old myths and stories from the past probably did exist and were seen by humans. Skinwalker ranch proves that science cannot explain much of this mysterious universe and indeed big foot exists and makes appearances as well as other things people have seen. My fav Skinwalker event was when two men in trench coats were seen standing with their backs to two police officers smoking cigs. They wore fedoras . But when they turned around to face the cops they had dog faces. And then vanished leaving their burning cigs behind. There is a book about it .
We now know that alternate and failed lines of hominids, cousins to humans, really did exist. In at least one case [Neanderthals] they clearly bred with humans. What other lines existed alongside humans and interacted or even bred with humans? It even makes me wonder about dwarfism and other genetic variations. Could this be a result of breeding between the lines?
Even the indigenous people of Australia had legends of little people A bigger mystery surrounds our indigenous people Here is a depiction of the Kow Swamp people https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kow_Swamp_Archaeological_SiteAnd They differ significantly from the lake Mungo skeletons https://www.newhistorian.com/2016/06/07/proof-aboriginal-australians-first/ These date to 40,000 years I would not be surprised if we unearthed fossil evidence of other early inhabitants after all Java is not that far from Australia and “Java man” is estimated to have been over 1 million years old https://cosmosmagazine.com/palaeontology/java-man-not-so-old-after-all
Denisovans have a genetic legacy within some of our DNA https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denisovan But this is disputed with a possible third group of people https://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-10...s-pacific-islanders-analysis-suggests/7968950 Suggests our ancestors made love not war
Hey! Be nice! Besides which - have you SEEN pictures of Neanderthals? All I can say is it must have been a dark night and the fruit had all fermented
Isn't one of the themes of Jean Auel's 'Earth's Children' books the story of a Cro-Magnon girl who is abandoned by her people and rescued by Neanderthals who she comes to love? Recent evidence does show that there is some Neanderthal in our DNA but it is very little and archaeological evidence suggests that is because our rather savage Cro-Magnon ancestors may have killed and even eaten most of the gentler Neanderthals
Science is constantly finding new creatures and working to explain others....as with most things it takes time, effort and a bit of luck.
If Earth might have been hospitable to life for one billion years, and if we give life perhaps 200,000 years to evolve where we are today, it's possible to have about 5,000 cycles of life over the one billion years. All sorts of stuff has happened over one billion years of which we will never even know .001% of it. We're still making discoveries today of land-based life/cultures and have barely touched what exists in our lakes and oceans...
That doesn't quite work because advanced life hasn't been around nearly that long. But still, there seems to be an entire human and human-cousin history that we know nothing about. There are other clues such as the Sphinx, which shows water erosion marks indicating it is much, much older than we think.
If life today came to an end, no matter the reason, if we fast-forward 3 million years into the future, will there be any tell-tale signs remaining of our current society?
Sadly we don't have a genome for H. erectus Pictured as parallel with "us" but of no contribution, yet around so long. Moi suspects they are the "archaic human" genome found in Denisovans. Similarly there is some genome in Tibetans termed, "archaic human". That is separate from Neanderthal or early modern "us". So who were, H. erectus and shouldn't they "count"? More H. erectus finds in Georgia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dmanisi With craniums of such diversity had they been found apart would have been assigned different species Moi Across an immense, unguarded, ethereal border, Canadians, cool and unsympathetic, regard our America with envious eyes and slowly and surely draw their plans against us.
There should be fossils like the ones we find now that are 3 billion years old. There should be a lot of fossilized trash. How many landfills are there around the world?
There are large, highly toxic and/or radioactive sites where vitrification is used to isolate the toxic waste. This encapsulates the material in glass by running high current through sandy soil. I would expect this to be preserved for millions of years. That is the point of doing it in the first place - to permanently contain the material.
