Difference between revisions of "Counterexample to African Origin"
(Created page that deals with the theory of African origin. I am surprised that no Conservapedia article has done this yet, given how much this site loves refuting naturalist mythology.) |

Evolutionists believe that Humans originated in south or east Africa around 300 millennia ago. The historical record of Earth, however, paints a completely different picture, pointing to a west Asian origin point for humanity and an origin time of around six millennia ago. The purpose of this article is to provide counterexamples to the location of an African origin point, not the evolutionary timescale, as there are other articles on that.
History
The first civilization to be founded was Sumer, which is located in west Asia, not south or east Africa.
Mesopotamia, often referred to as the "cradle of civilization", as well as China, Egypt, and India, were the first formally organized human societies, and the first to start recording history via use of Cuneiform tablets, Oracle Bone script, and Papyrus scrolls. For example, the Kish tablet, the oldest piece of writing in the world, originated in the mid 4th millennium BC (around 3500 BC) in modern-day Iraq.[1]
The study of organic degeneration, including sulfurization, is often used to determine how old a skeleton is chronologically, with scientists claiming the oldest are from eastern sub-Saharan Africa. Newer evidence shows that some techniques to estimate age that are used by scientists may occur much more quickly than initially thought, calling into question the veracity of those claims.[2]
