[@NefariousKoel]

I recall watching one of those archaeological dig documentaries years ago, as I often have. The researchers were analyzing the bones of what was obviously an ancient warrior from the Iron Age period, a contemporary of ancient Greece. IIRC, they found him buried with bits of weapons in his grave, and his bones showed signs of violence. Yet they acted like they didn't know why the bones around the left shoulder joint, where the muscles connected, were so heavily built up on that side. They guessed wrong, and they ended up making an obviously incorrect one. Guesstimating he was some kind of servant or porter, despite being given a military burial with his armaments. Left arm on an ancient warrior getting a regularly heavier compared to the right? It was obviously because he often carried and used a shield, as so many did back then. When I saw these Doctors overlook such a common thing, I began wondering how many other oversights have been made. Seemed like a rookie mistake, caught on film that time.

Interesting that things that are 'only a thousand years old' seem to be treated as worthless. Obviously it's a disappointment if you were expecting it to be older, but something lasting 1000 years seems impressive to me.

[@bradleyrocks618]

I thought the same thing but scientists are like eh only a thousand years lol

[@a.vanwijk2268]

The point is that we know for certain that there were no mammoths around, a thousand years ago.

[@NorthOntarian]

Im going to guess the shell was a thousand years old and the mammoth inscription was a more modern hoax.

[@MaegnasMw]

It depends on the social and/or scientific "environment". For "nations" like the one in the US (the quotation marks are necessary, deal with it), where the exact TIME of disembarkment is known, along with the exact date(s) of declaring said nation, a thousand years may sound as an awful lot of time. For nations that are around for millennia, like the Chinese, Egyptians, Greeks, Romans/Italians, Goths/Germanic people - to name just a few - a thousand years is indeed 'meh'. The Great Pyramid of Giza is 4580 years old, give or take a few months, do you think Egyptian Archeologists get excited by a discovery that is 1000 years old?

[@anyawillowfan]

@@MaegnasMw I'm British so know that 1000 years both is and isn't a long time. But even in places that have been inhabited for millennia, something lasting 1000 years is impressive as while there a decent number of items from that time found, it still isn't enough to give an accurate depiction of life at that time because the majority of items have not survived. So yes, I think if an archeologist found something 1000 years old in Eygpt they probably would be excited, especially if it's something that adds to our understanding of the time. Yes, something is less likely to last 10000 years (and is more exciting as we have no writing from the time), but 1000 years is still exciting for anyone interested in social history.

[@Ariantez]

There's more to the Piltdown Man story. Archaeology was rife with scientific racism back then (as with any other field) and British archaeologists were not keen on the discoveries starting to come out of Africa that suggested humans originated there. They were so eager to confirm their assumption that humanity evolved in Europe (specifically in Britain) that they didn't look too critically at the find until far later, when it became obvious that it was a fake.

[@HolgerDanske]

You know the 'Out of Africa' theory was wrong, right?

[@johnbockman6078]

Back in the early 1970s when it was trendy for young people to backpack in Europe, I was doing just that when I went to a museum connected with Heidelberg University that displayed flat stones that had Hebrew letters carved in bas-relief on them. A 19th century paleontology professor, who didn't realize his students were pulling his chain, kept finding these stones at digging sites, and believing them to have lain underground all along, supposed them to be God's words fossilized. He proved it by arranging the stones to read "Let there be plants", "Let there be animals". and the like and staunchly refused to listen to saner minds that explained that spoken words have no substance and so cannot be fossilized. I tried googling this to find out if he ever caught on to the prank or if he took his claim with him to the grave. This particular fraud was way too bizarre to leave any footprint on history, but I would imagine his students finally exposed the prank and he died of shame and remorse.

[@AnyoneCanSee]

I think it is still trendy for young people to backpack in Europe. Well, until the pandemic. I backpacked around Europe in 1990 and I live in Edinburgh and see hundreds of thousands of them every year arrive and leave.

Simon is a legend in my home. He can talk about turnips and I'd watch the whole episode

[@korvtm]

Heard a story once that maybe Simon's group could check out.Way I heard the story was a lady in South Africa was very interested in very old ways the early African people painted different designs and pictures on rocks.She found a very old man that knew how the original paints were made. After learning how to make the different colors,the lady studied the old art,then painted some rocks that she used in her garden.Several years later the new local authorites accused her of stealing old art work and tried to have her arrested.She was finally able to prove that the paintings were only a few years old,after local government authorties had the pictures were hundreds of years old.

When I took an anthropology course many (,many) years ago the prof said that often items whose uses couldn't be sussed out were automatically identified as religious artifacts. It turned out that sometimes modern versions of these items still existed. He gave 2 examples i can recall. One was a milk curdler to make cheese and one was a tool to unbend spears.
