…tells us about Neanderthals I found this article to be quite interesting on several levels. Neadertal art, medieval 'scams', the massive size of a deer in prehistory, etc. link Also, I liked the line, "The Neanderthal who turned a deer bone into art could not be reached for comment." |

could not be reached for comment. Some artists are such snobs. |

It was from his Blue Period. He never likes to talk about that time. |

What I find interesting is that, as a child, I read all these things about pre-history as if they were facts. It seems they were not facts but theories based on but little evidence. Learning how to learn appears to be an important activity. |

I know what you mean rustymusket. There's a lot of 'facts' out there that are only theories. |
