Did A Comet Strike Wipe Out Civilization In 11,000 Bc?

Bit of a stretch

 

I like how the article already states that "drawings on this tablet confirm" when like, they've had the tablet for how long beforehand and it never confirmed anything up until a new perceived theory.

If you draw a line from top right to bottom left and bottom right to top left you have an X and that X points to a specific picture on a tablet which means that the killer is.... Jeff.

 

Stargazing has led me to the conclusion it was the butler. Sorry Irm!

edit: unless the butler is called Jeff..!

 

One time...at band camp...I saw a constellation...and stuck it in her pussy.

 

Cmon, its a dumb theory.

Where did you expect this thread to go?

 

Oh boy this asteroid is late

 

I read the precursor to "Magicians of The Gods", called "Fingerprints of The Gods",around twenty years ago. Hancock is a compelling and convincing writer, but I couldn't comment in greater detail until I see the new one. I may pick it up next weekend and earmark it for holiday reading.

 

I find it all very interesting myself and if you've ever read my stuff you'd know that I do read a lot into ancient scripture and like to keep an open mind myself it was just the way it was worded in the article that made me take no notice I mean it's a theory, yes? We can all agree this is just a theory, so for the article to state several times that "it's confirmed" it just doesn't read too well.

Basically the way I see it, someone's come out and ignored every plausible history about the stone etc. disregarded its original interpretations and come up with "asteroids, sounds good to me" and then they post online like it's a legitimate source and 100% factual evidence.

I don't know why they thought I'd take that as gospel.

Either way we know something happens whether the deluge or this asteroid stuff who knows maybe asteroids cause the deluge and massive tidal waves? It could be true, it might very well be, but let's not just class this as factual historic evidence, I mean we haven't even begun to interpret the scripts on the stones for if we had we'd know the story by now but we don't.

 

sorry for the humorous presentation.

 

A comet triggered and mini ice age which killed off woolly mammoths, creatures that lived in snow

Its beyond dumb

 

Have you heard of Randal Carlson? He's teamed up to some extent with Graham Hancock, and also propounds the comet strike idea. I haven't read Hancock's new book, but from what I've read and heard about it, it appears that there is definite scientific evidence for a comet strike at that period.
Gobekli Tepe does raise a lot of questions about ancient cultures. Could hunter-gatherers have built it? According to standard models, it seems unlikely. So if it's 10 - 12 thousand years old, our notions about early civilizations are probably completely skewed.

Both of them recently appeared on the Joe Rogan podcast - an interesting episode.

I'd be more willing to listen to critics if they have something real and informed to say.

 

Nothing to be sorry about. I too am interested in these kinds of ideas. Not to say I 'believe' - but it's interesting.

 

You should never belabor a complaint - a short, sharp, acerbic retort should do it

 

Surprised I never hear much about the Epic of Gilgamesh

One of the things that intrigues me in more general terms is the feeling that all myths stem from some realistic occurrence
