POPSArtifacts and Human History Yet many other unearthed "out-of-place artifacts" create obvious contradictions to the conservative picture of antiquity. They don't fit the established pattern of prehistory, pointing back instead to the existence of advanced civilizations before any of the known ancient cultures came into being.

POPSJunk DNA tells tales of the pacific The 800 genetic markers studied, described as 'Junk DNA' are also known as 'microsatelites' and can vary a great deal between individuals, and can tell a great deal about a persons identity and history, according to the number of repeated segments. I'm sure they'll find a better name for junk when they discover how it fits into the gene sequence. I have trouble imagining it is there without having a function, or even an effect, but we still have a lot more to learn about DNA than we'd like to admit. Still, it could be like saying there is a reason for fingerprints besides identification. (Maybe grip?)

POPSFirst farmers wanted clothes not food The study also shows that hunter gatherer lifestyles were more efficient. It seems the more we produce, the more we think we can afford to waste. Agriculture has become so successful, that the human population is eating and breeding it's way to extinction
