Ancient Rock Art Reveals Arabia Was Once Home To Some Unexpected Animals

Most of what we know about the natural history of the Arabian Peninsula comes from skeletal remains, however, these are few and far between in the vast dust plains of present-day Saudi Arabia. Thankfully, a bunch of ancient hunters left some clues about the prehistoric animals roaming over their homeland, hidden in their rock art.

Archaeologists from the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History in Germany have recently been busy studying the thousands of ancient artworks at Jubbah and Shuwaymis, a UNESCO world heritage rock art site in Ha'il province, north-western Saudi Arabia. Some of the rock art at this site is thought to be around 10,000 years old and spans through the middle and early Holocene.

Yeah, sooorry... 300,000 y/o modern human remains in Morrocco, 200,000 yo modern human remains found in the Americas....


The whole 'Out of Africa' shtick is so last century.

Not that I have any faith in the dating methods science uses, but you don't get to keep your memes once they are categorically made false... No matter if the science community's knowledge filter conveniently omits it.

Same with the Berengean Land Bridge crap, and all the rest of 'official' ancient history.
Wrong again
sommore.
even yet.
