Actually it’s an exciting era to live in as the sciences are starting to make headway into the great mysteries of genetics, Pluripotent stem cells, massive pipe assimilation of data, possible theories of neural transfer via download, bacterial archeology to Nassim talebs “The Black Swan”

There is still those great mysteries that will always be there like Mitchelson skull.

Good work on your weight loss goals if you are reading this DPF, great stuff. I am just getting back into weights after a long layoff and it is a good feeling. It will be for good this time!

There was one archeological site that fired up the anthropological world and there is a slight mystery there.

Not sure what the Mitchelson Skull is, but from a quick search I assume you mean skulls like these which, as the article points out, are in fact simple to explain.

The crystal skull that Arthur c clark made famous but it was commonly known as the Mitchel hedges skull not Mitchelson, my mistake. The current owner just needs to give it up to testing to see if it is a modern fake or not. I hope it is for real and what a hoot if it is.

The Crystal Skull is here, including a link to an interview with the current custodian of it who shows it and discusses it in detail.

It’s real. The questions are, what is it really and where did it come from.

Another interesting “conspiracy theory.” About a real object that exists.

Crikey.

It’s everywhere, isn’t it.

I think so but it needs to go back in for more modern testing.

If the current owner wants to put things to rest then he would submit it for better testing and yay or nay i would still love to have it.

The crystal skull was posed as an Aztec artifact, but seems to have been part of a fraud. The idea that the fraud is now an Atlantis artifact is the conspiracy theory about the existent object.

The story posted up earlier about gobekli-tepe is more real. And it has a part in overturning theories that settlement derived from cultivated crop farming – instead settlement may have preceded farming. Then this settlement farming spread.

Well done Black Caps! Restricted SA well, had their usual batting problems but hung in for a great win. Franklin tops in the end.

Something is terribly amiss today. No General Debate, and the BlackCaps have won a game. I might need to go back to bed.
