A nomadic hominid tribe who predated even the Neanderthal era has been recently carbon dated as camping at Berekhat Ram (in the modern-day Golan Heights region) between 232,000 and 800,000 years ago.
From scoria stone they carved the astounding figurine which, according to the Journal of the Israel Prehistoric Society, "...might be considered the earliest manifestation of a work of art."

The Bow and Arrow is not the novel invention people today believe it to be, but rather a progression of existing technology.? The existing technology, for thousands of years, was that of the Atlatl and Dart.? Like the Bow, the Atlatl accelerates a flexible shaft from the rear.? For the Bow the flexible shaft is called an Arrow. For the Atlatl the flexible shaft is called a Dart.? Research by BPS Engineering has proven that the only difference between these two weapons--and a minor one at that ...

Early Man: Neanderthal Man (Homo neanderthalensis)
In 1856 workers quarrying for limestone in the Neander Valley near Duesseldorf, Germany came across a skull and bones. In the succeeding years many other specimens were found, not only in the Neander Valley, but in countries such as France, England, Italy, Iraq and as far south as Israel.
Controversy surrounded the interpretation of these fossils. German Anatomist Rudolf Virchow examined the first discovery and concluded that it was a Homo sa ...

Localities of the Pleistocene:
The La Brea Tar Pits
When this photograph was taken around 1910, the location depicted was described as "the Salt Creek oilfields, 7 miles west of Los Angeles." Today, this spot is in the middle of downtown Los Angeles, eloquent testimony to urban sprawl, but the pools and deposits of asphalt still remain. For these are the La Brea tar pits, containing one of the richest, best preserved, and best studied assemblages of Pleistocene vertebrates, including a ...

The Pre-Historic Moundbuilders.
The last pre-historic cultural development in North America was the Mississippian Culture, thriving from approximately 800 AD until the arrival of European explorers. The Mississippian Culture spanned from Wisconsin and Minnesota in the north, through Georgia to the south, and westward into the Great Plains. These people enjoyed an intricate system of trading, were accomplished craftsmen, and practiced sophisticated religious beliefs.

GENERAL INTRODUCTION: PREHISTORIC TIMES
[Excerpted from Philip Van Ness Myers, Ancient History, Revised Edition (Boston: Ginn and Company, 1904), pp. 1-12]
The Antiquity of Man.--We do not know when man first appeared upon the earth. We only know that in ages long past, when both the climate and the outline of the continents were very different from what they are at present, primitive man roamed over them with animals now extinct; and that, about 5000 B.C., when the historic curtain fi ...

Prehistory in Thailand
Tens of thousand years ago, this land was covered with lush tropical rain forests. The fertile land, temperate climatic conditions, abundent natural resources attracted early settlers and migrants throughtout the subsequent periods, even up to the present. Rich cultures amalgamated into distinct life styles. Emerging out of a thousand years of consciously striving for unity were the T'ai people. City states soon unified into an independent kingdom. Emergent also was a ...

The Case of the Arboricidal Megaherbivores
Elin Whitney-Smith Ph.D.
I have chosen to present this model of the extinctions at the end of the Pleistocene in the form of a detective story. In the traditional detective story the reader is asked to consider a wide variety of apparently unconnected clews which the detective then pulls together in a convincing story of how and why the crime was committed. This paper also asks the reader to consider a widely divergent set of facts, some of which ...

The story
Herald/Bob Brawdy.
An aerial view shows the area of Columbia Park where Kennewick Man was found in July 1996.
It started in July 1996 when two young boat-racing enthusiasts stumbled across a skull alongside the Columbia River in Kennewick, Wash.
It has evolved into a skirmish between American Indians who believe nature should be left to take its course with the remains and scientists who want to study them.
In the middle are the bones of a man believed ...
