No Krice. There was no hunting of mammoth. Humans all held hands in monogamous relations with their wives and sometimes fished and sometimes picked berries while starring into their partner's eyes with complete equality and respect. While, of course, respecting their wive's opinion on where and how to piss and shit and also respecting the life of all feeling creatures with smiling faces.
Yep.
It's been 10-15 years since I was in undergrad, but at that time they were pushing the environmental theory about why the mammoth went extinct. My problem is that could be completely true, but they use the strength of that theory to refute the obvious fact that man hunted mammoth.
It should be noted that mammoth are only really preserved in certain situations, like when they fell into the la brea tar pits. So of course the spear points in those mammoths must be anomalous because those mammoths were immobile. That's not hunting really, that's scavenging. And those huge spear points were not meant for large game, nope, they were for throwing and scaring off the big bad animals. You know, the ones that run and hid from man in every environ and every climate known to man throughout recorded history and have been shown to also happen in areas where folks still hunter/gather. Yep. They are scared because man throws rocks, not because man hunted, kills and eats them.
In undergrad I had to endure the fucking academic disgrace of hearing some student give a goddamn 'report' about how the tar pits mostly contained the skeletons of young male mammoths because "only young men are stupid enough to go out alone and die" to the laughter of the overweight 'trendy' female guest professor and the died hair soon to be barista women in the audience.
I'll never forget that one time I had to leave class to use the restroom (I've never been too healthy), and even though I sat by the door and just slipped out as to not inconvenience anyone by barfing in the goddamn waste paper basket I still was able to hear the bitch professor stop her diatribe and focus on me and how I was a man and how men don't have to try as hard and just look at how I feel I can leave in the middle of class and still expect to pass the class and on and on.
It was terrible. I never once spoke in that class or said anything. This was just one example from the 4 classes I had to take in anthropology while getting my history degree. Every one of them was a nightmare full of horrible bitter women professors. Every one of my history professors was female and everyone of them gave me high marks and recommendations. 15 years later I'm still using their letters of recommendation.
Hope that answers your question Krice. Of course man didn't hunt. That's just false machismo. You must hate women.
