Guest vilnoori Posted February 16, 2012 Posted February 16, 2012 As a masculine noun, 'adam [3] means "man", "mankind" usually in a collective context as in humankind,[2] and may also refer to the individual human.[4] The noun 'adam is also the masculine form of the word adamah which means "ground" or "earth". It is related to the words: adom (red), admoni (ruddy), and dam (blood).[5] wikipedia
Guest Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=science-art-neandertal-teeth Thanks for your reply--nice one, Vilnoori.
Guest vilnoori Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 Great article! Since teeth are a common surviving feature of ancient skeletons they are a great item of research all on their own. Gorjanović-Kramberger took an interest in the teeth from Krapina, noting anomalies such as taurodontism, in which the pulp chamber expands into the roots. First described from the Krapina remains, taurodontism turns out to be common in Neandertals, although not exclusive to them. This would be a feature to look for in old "Native Indian Giant" skeletons in museum basements! And any other questionable skeletons that might possibly be sasquatches.
JDL Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 the team has revealed at least 15 layers containing what they suggest to be deliberately laid plant bedding dated from 77,000 to 38,000 years ago. Consisting of layers of compacted leaves and stems from rushes and sedges spread out up to three square meters, at least some of the bedding contained evidence of plants that are also known to have medicinal and insecticidal properties. http://popular-archa...7-000-years-ago Is it possible that these were compost piles used for heating?
Guest Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 (edited) http://popular-archa...tober-30th-2011 Modern Humans Interbred with Archaic Humans in East Asia, Study Says I guess that proves that the concept of "go ugly early" (male-to-female OR female-to-male) has been around a LOOOOONG time....

indiefoot Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 Is it possible that these were compost piles used for heating? Would methane be a problem?
JDL Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 Would methane be a problem? Not with some ventilation.
