The Lost World of Old Europe

Excellent film!?!Those metal figurines can compete today on every contemporary art contests!

Originally posted by opuslola I would consider the above, just another example of false 14C dating!

Before making such quick and false accusations you should at least make a suggestion which culture these artifacts belonged to then, if you don't consider them so old.

As a follow up to Med's ...........rather accurate summation of Opus's reaction, he's like that, all you have to do is mention C14 and he does really funny things.

"Before making such quick and false accusations you should at least make a suggestion which culture these artifacts belonged to then, if you don't consider them so old."

"Why cant you tell us why exaclty you do not trust Carbon 14 dates? It would make your postion alot easier to understand."

I would like for someone of you to post other information concerning the finds mentioned in the above film?

If there exists only "one site" and if there exits at no other time, any similar art, or ceramics, then this site could just be a one-time tribe, with as it seems, that had very good ability in art and ceramics, that either died out from disease, or by warfare, etc.!

Just where are the prototypes for this type of culture? It did not suddenly just appear out of thin air?

When one of you can show me sites with more information, the dig reports, other scholars comments, etc., then I will again respond!

And interestingly also, is the fact that a final report may not exist today!

But, of particular interest to me is the existance of this site on the edge of the Black Sea! It might even help date the filling of this sea?

Oh! Thanks for the above information!

Regards,

Ron
