Analysis Of Mike Morwood 's The Discovery Of Lithic Industry

A. C. H., was discovered in the loft space above the office of the Keeper of Zoology—the office Hinton had occupied from 1936 to 1945. This was the first concrete evidence implicating Hinton in the Piltdown hoax (Gardiner, 2003). Contained in the trunk were x teeth similarly stained to the materials discovered at Piltdown I, while several other materials, such as elephant and hippopotami teeth and bone fragments, had been whitened similar in fashion to the ‘cricket bat’ found at the Piltdown II site; the cricket bat having been made form an elephant femur. Hinton had experimented with bone and tooth staining (De Groote et al., 2016) predominantly staining them with iron to match the gravels of a Pleistocene era (Gardiner, 2003)… Also among Hinton’s effects, were eight human teeth that had been stained with iron, chromium, and manganese (Gardiner & Currant, 1996), similar to those of the Piltdown site. When the fluorine dating method was implemented this further incriminated Hinton as the findings from the Piltdown I site evidenced “a recent ape jaw and canine had been artificially modified, stained and planted at Piltdown I, along with parts of a similarly stained recent human skull” (De Groote, 2016, p. 4). The method Hinton practiced (evidenced by the findings in his trunk) was unique to him—a signature—therefore, implicating him as the Piltdown

The report also states similar facts to those in Paleolithic and Neolithic Societies, such as examples of developed weaponry, evidence of fishing, and advanced stonework. The first examples of art

There are manifold stone tool industries, however there are two especially prevalent technocomplexes; the Oldowan and the Acheulean. Although perhaps not the most intricate instances of implement development, they are the oldest and describe their creators’ lifestyles; information that would otherwise be all but lost. The gradual evolution of these tools over millions of years portray a clear change in the users acclimatisation to new and varied environments, as well as their cultural adaptations. This essay will aim to analyse, through comparison, the varying behavioural adaptations of early Homonins, taking into account the factors of diet, ranging patterns, and the development of social behaviour.

The sheer enormity of the Great Barrier Reef, in addition to its great age, are two of the most well-known features of this natural phenomenon. It is composed of living coral, dead coral, algae, sponges, fish, snakes and thousands of other species, both plants and animals (2011). Currently, no evidence has been discovered as to when the first human contact occurred at the reef, but the Aboriginal population may have been the first, due to their occupation of Australia for over 40,000 years (Lunar).

How many years ago, is it estimated, that the shape of Australia’s coastline was defined?

For years, it had been widely accepted “that small bands of humans carrying a generalized Upper Paleolithic tool kit entered the Americas around 11,500 radiocarbon years before the present” (Waters 1122); and that “Archaeologists called these presumed pioneers the Clovis culture, after distinctive stone tools that were found at sites near Clovis, New Mexico, in the 1920s and 1930s” (Curry 13). However, the “peopling” of the Americas and their presumptive date of arrival is a topic of great debate within the field of Archeology; and the discovery of the Paisley Caves in south-central Oregon has thrown a wrench in the once widely accepted hypothesis that the “Clovis complex is considered to be the oldest unequivocal evidence of humans in the

Sea.” On their way they had to cross the Isthmus of Panama, they then laid their eyes on what we

Roughly 16,000- 40,000 years ago a group of nomadic people known as the Paleo-Indians who are the ancestors of the Native Americans followed the herds of animals from Siberia to Alaska across a land bridge called Beringia that connected Asia to North America (Mintz & McNeil, 2013). The land bridge that was used has been covered by water due to the rise of the Bering and Chukchi Seas (United States National Parks Services [NPS], 2014). The timeline for this journey has been in question because nothing was recorded so archeologists have an approximate time this took place. By the year 8,000 B.C.E these nomadic people spread and settled into different tribes throughout North and South America

When did they arrive in North America is very speculated (possibly as early as 14,000 radiocarbon years ago) After the writing of this article, a University of Oregon archaeologist Dennis Jenkins discovered “coprolite, fossilized feces, that contained human DNA and was radiocarbon dated to 14,300 years ago” so perhaps humans where here even earlier. We do know that humans came here and most historians establish that they came across the land bridge, but we are still tracing the origins of when they arrived here.

had travelled to the Americas before, but because they deemed the new land nothing of

When people think about of America society they thought are prosperity, equality and freedom. However, today in American society many people who are less privileged in different areas of their lives face discrimination by others. The segregation that people experience involves violence, inequality in their jobs and even in the neighborhoods. George Saunders in his article, “Exhortation”, argues the sadness that many people face in their jobs because they feel like slaves because the salary and condition of job makes them to realize that in order to get their check; they need to give their lives on the job; in his article, “Sea Oak”, he argues how Bernie sees that her lives is nothing because in order to be a part of the American system the people need to be happy being exploited. Finally in “Offloading for Mrs. Schwartz”, he argues how the happy zone helps makes people face their emotions in front of the stress they experience’s every day in their jobs and how people are manipulate by their emotions in order to kept their values away in order to protect their jobs. George Sanders effectively argues the idea of exploitation in people lives. He states that the America ideals that people believe are not true because in order to succeed in the society they give their lives to the system.

How far does the evidence support the theory that the first “Americans” came across the Beringia land bridge?I think that the first Americans came across the Beringia land bridge from Siberia to Alaska.One of evidence shows that in South America “there were chewed cuds of seaweed, and pieces of charcoal,scientist think that they spend most of their time near the sea”. I actually agree with the scientist because if they spend most of their time near the sea it means they might have looked around to see if there was any Island near the sea.

When I began searching for an article on my topic, I already know that this prehistoric species was found on Flores. I also knew that Flores an island.

In my opinion, the theory that the early peoples migrated across the Bering Land Bridge, an estimated 600 mile wide grassy plain, is the most relevant one, and it’s the one scientists as well as archaeologists should study the most. The surface of the water is frozen in the winter, and during the last Ice Age, it was even easier to use as a walkway. Cape Dezhnev in Siberia is only 90km away from Cape Prince of Wales, Alaska. This 90km walk could have easily been completed by the first peoples, as opposed to getting through the Pacific or Atlantic oceans in boats. Historians are not sure what kind of boats people used 13 500 to perhaps as far back as 50,000 years ago. Evidence also suggests that large animals such as horses and mammoths migrated

At Rio de Tabasco they stumbled on a strait. Being too shallow to allow the ships’ passage, a party embarked on their small boats to investigate. In the woods along the strait, the men could hear the locals preparing stockades and barriers in preparation for a fight with the
