Fanns det neander i England också efter Eem?
Märkligt. 42.000 år är oerhört tidligt till att ha moderna människor i England. Det finns knappt spår efter äldre utgåvor av moderna människor i hela Europa. Fumari i Italien är 42.000, sen är det Rumenien och Ryssland. Sen påståsdet ju att här finns flintverktyg efter 'proto-moderna människor' i Syd-Afrika som dateras till 60.000+ år före nutid. Dom påstås ju ha vandrat till Levanten för 60-40.000 år sen, varefter dom borde ha varit i England redan...
Archaeologists have found what they say is the earliest evidence of Neanderthals living in Britain. Two pieces of flint unearthed at motorway works in Dartford, Kent, have now been dated to 110,000 years ago.The finds push back the presence of Neanderthals in Britain by 40,000 years or more, said Dr Francis Wenban-Smith, from Southampton University.A majority of researchers believe Britain was uninhabited by humans at the time the flint tools were made.An absence of archaeological evidence suggests people abandoned this land between 200,000 years ago (or 160,000 years ago, depending on who you ask) and 65,000 years ago. But one researcher, unconnected with the study, said he was not convinced by the evidence presented so far.Dr Mark White, from Durham University, said he would like to assess the findings in detail before considering whether they posed a challenge to the majority view that humans were absent from Britain at this time.
