Pyramid in Bosnia?

[Aenlic]

Aenlic, about the Aborigines being there 45.000 years ago. I think it was a recent issue of NewScientist, which has new numbers: much longer ago than thought by the 19th century scientists. I think it was a seven digit number, the only one I can remember was remains of humans found in China around 1.9 million years ago. I'll try to find the online one.

Really? Thanks for the tip!

I heard about a 90K date recently. Haven't heard anything about older. I'm still fascinated by the genetic study just recently completed that definitely confirms the Tierra del Fuegans as having Aborigine ancestors. I've been a bit lax in my reading. I got off on a complete tangent recently when I got interested in studying the Siberian traps. My background is physics and history, but having a father who was a geophysicist and paying attention when I was little let me follow the publications at least in part. My geophysics is still way too rusty. Plus, I get easily distracted and wander off into completely unrelated fields from those with which I'm moderately familiar at times. Next month it might be neuroscience or something. The joys of being retired.

Let me know what you find! The whole issue of migrations before and after the population bottleneck fascinates me. We have a rapidly closing window in which to do genomics studies of various indigenous populations before modern technology makes mixing genetic lines cover the evidence.

Edit: Ah, just saw your edit with the link. Sadly, it looks like I need a subscription to the New Scientist to read on. I'll go grab that issue later today, if it's out already. Thanks!
