The problem of Mammoths
As is well known, elephants do not run, jump, or gallop, and achieve their greatest speeds via a sort of stiff-legged fast walk, and this is due to their great weight. The image above, from A. D. Stolyar's Origins of Representational Art clearly shows pliestocene artwork involving a mammoth elephant in full gallop. Another anomaly involving gravity... Scientists have gone to lengths to explain how mammoths might have lived, commissioning artwork showing mammoths trooping through snow-covered tundras, their massive fur coats much in evidence. What these pictures don't show is silos or grocery stores in those tundras; the mammoths would need them. The problem is that the bulk of mammoth remains are found in the far reaches of Canada and Alaska, and in Island groups to the North of Siberia in the Arctic circle. The question is, how given anything like the standard version of Earth history, did vast herds of such large creaturesever find food when the entire territory is covered by ice ten months of the year? Elephants are gluttonous; they spend most of their wakinghours eating, in fact, McGowan has stated that he does not understand how anythingever ate enough to get bigger than elephants since there would not appear to be time inthe day for it. You could literally take the healthiest elephant on Earth, fit him with the best fur coat and the best pair of jogging shoes in the world, start him off from any point on Earth habitable to elephants, and build for him a highway to the Liakhovs, and he would never get there. Winter would arrive and he would starve before he got there.

For many decades, there has been an overwhelming curiosity about what life was like before humans ruled the earth - back when life on land, off land, and even the very land itself was very different than it is today. Pieces of this puzzle have been discovered all over the world, ranging from perfectly preserved skeletons at the bottom of bodies of water to fragments discovered in vast deserts. Due to the conditions of the ancient finds, there is only so much that can be deciphered about the past, which leads to the creations of various theories of what life was like in different areas and why and when it changed. However, in at least one stretch of land, there is a lot that can be told thanks to one of the best finds in recent history: some of the oldest DNA ever recovered. This amazing find was first reported in April of 2003, when it was told that animal and plant DNA was found in the permafrost of northeastern Siberia (Thomas 2003). The permafrost was located between the Lena and Kolyma rivers of former western Beringia and was drilled out under scrupulous conditions – using extreme care not to let any of the precious samples become contaminated.

    VALLEY OF THE MAMMOTHS (Eurogames-Descartes; $29.95) It seems that Eurogames has fallen for prehistoric times. Last year, they released Evo (featured in the Summer 2001 GA REPORT) which centered on dinosaurs. This time, another prehistoric animal - the Mammoth - takes center stage in their new release: Valley of the Mammoths Valley of the Mammoths is a new edition of the original game by Bruno Faidutti, published by the now defunct French company Ludodélire as La Vallée des Mammouths back in 1989. The large square box contains the typically high quality components we've come to expect from Eurogames: a mounted game board (and, as in Evo , consisting of two parts so that they the parts can be flipped to form different board configurations), three decks of cards (Fate, Summer Event and Winter Event), animal tokens (and a bag to hold them), six sets of tribe tokens, food markers and other assorted markers and six pages of rules. This moderate complexity game is for three to six players (but plays best with five or six) and has a playing time of about two hours. Players begin with a set of color-coded markers representing their tribe. These tokens represent men (warriors), women (females) and camps. In turn, each player sets up 1 camp, 2 women and five men (also known as warriors) in a vacant space on the board. When first seeding the board, no player may set up in an adjacent area. The Fate cards are shuffled and each player is dealt a starting hand (four cards with 5 or 6 players; five cards with 3 or 4).

For several reasons, we know the most about mammoths: They were relatively abundant. Indeed, there was so much ivory in Northern Asia that a trade in fossil mammoth tusks began in the Middle Ages that is still ongoing in Russia. Well-preserved carcasses have been found. A significant number of remarkably intact mammoths have been preserved in the Siberian permafrost and also in tar pits and dry caves further south. of 14

This conclusion was reached by deduction because rocks were found in different states. Burlington Chert named after Burlington Iowa where it was found, was found in Missouri, Illinois, and Iowa.Hixson Quartzite was found in western Wisconsin. Indiana Hornstone was found in Illinois, Indiana, and Kentucky. Moline Chert was found in Illinois. Knife River Chalcedony was found in North Dakota. Taconite was found in Canada and Minnesota. Often Paleo-Indian spear points were found in the above states. Burlington-Chert and Hixson Quartzite were found at the highway 50 site in Walworth County. Paleo-Indians could have traded with other Indians or groups traveling through the area may have left them there.
    Paleo-Indians must have been very skillful in craftsmanship, because the arrowheads found in the area were well made, and beautifully chiseled out of rock. Paleo-Indians lived very primitively and worked hard to survive. Paleo-Indians were very skillful in making their tools and hunting. They had to be very skillful in making tools and hunting to have survived.

Illustration by Regan Dunnick New Yorker article about the Ebola virus in Africa. The article, which evolved into a best-selling book, The Hot Zone , documented how a once-obscure disease jumped between species, somehow becoming lethally virulent in the process. The bones and teeth of mammoths and other extinct mammals may hold evidence of a pathogen that led to their demise. MacPhee and his colleagues have traveled to remote places like Wrangel Island (off the coast of northeastern Siberia in the Chukchi Sea), where some of the best mammoth specimens can be found. They hope that marrow extracted from mammoth ulnas and femurs will contain an ancient killer microbe. Though the ecological irony of this parallel is tempting, MacPhee stresses that hyperdisease is still only a theory. Until pathological evidence of disease is found in giant mammal DNA and RNA samples, his theory will have to compete with the other extinction hypotheses.

    Zdenek Burian from Dinosaur World ZDENEK BURIAN'S GLOBAL VISIONS OF PREHISTORY By Allen A. Debus One of the most prolific paleoartists was Zdenek Burian (1905-1981). Relatively little is known about this influential artist outside of his native land of Czechoslovakia. Burian was born in the town of Koprivnice in northern Moravia on February 11, 1905. In 1919, he undertook an art curriculum at the Academy of Prague. Thereafter, he met Czech paleontologist and stratigrapher, Josef Augusta (1903-1968). Inspired by the renderings of Charles R. Knight, Burian produced many of prehistoric fauna and flora which became known to an English-speaking audience, principally through the writings of Augusta. In 1935, Burian completed his first fossil restoration, that of two species of Temnospondyli (labyrinthodonts). Over the next 46 years, Burian would complete nearly 500 prehistoric animal restorations and landscapes. The Burian/Augusta association grew over the years. Today, to the English-speaking audience, their work is represented by six magnificent volumes ' Prehistoric Animals Prehistoric Prehistoric Reptiles and Birds The Book of Mammoths Prehistoric Sea Monsters (1964), and

    Prehistoric DNA to Help Solve Human-Evolution Mysteries? John Pickrell in England
    for National Geographic News
    March 25, 2004 It may be possible to extract DNA from the bones of human ancestors and other hominids who died up to one million years ago, researchers believe. Hominids are primates that walk upright, including humans and extinct human ancestors and related forms. Experts speaking at a chemistry conference held in Chicago earlier this month argued that ancient genetic material could be used to better understand the relationships among hominids and answer questions about the evolution of speech and other defining traits of humans.

Pulse of the Planet "DNA is a relatively weak molecule, comparatively speaking, yet under certain conditions it persists in the fossil record despite what chemistry [in the lab] predicts," said Hendrik Poinar, a molecular anthropologist at McMaster University in Ontario Canada. Fragments of genetic material may survive much longer in fossils than laboratory experiments have so far predicted, he said.

    BY ANDREA TORTORA
    The Cincinnati Enquirer FLORENCE
    The idea is to educate and entertain children, said Elena Miller, mall marketing director. The project was inspired by local history. Big Bone Lick State Park in Union is known for its fossils of mammoths and other prehistoric animals that frequented the salt licks at the site. Some 10,000 years ago, the salt and minerals at Big Bone Lick attracted woolly mammoths, the saber-toothed cat and the giant beaver. Some sank into the ground, where their bones were preserved. The mall play area will feature replicas of the mammoths and information about Big Bone Lick. The Cincinnati Zoo and the Cincinnati Museum Center also worked to create the educational area.

    The new Time Tunnel at the Yakima Valley Museum provides a glimpse of the Yakima Valley 10,000 to 25 million years ago. This was when our present local landscape was formed in a drama of lava flows and great glacial floods. Fossils hidden beneath our feet help reveal the unique animals which lived in the Yakima Valley during those years; mastodons, mammoths, giant camels, tiny horses, huge bison, and even a giant ground sloth. See the Time Tunnel In QuicktimeVR ( Click here Plans began in late 1995 for an exhibition that would tell this story using the museum's collection of fossil animal bones as well as provide opportunities for new educational programs in the nearby Children's Underground hands-on exploration center. With the help of the Kiwanis Club of Yakima and the Yakima Kiwanis Charitable Trust, the development of the Time Tunnel was officially underway in 1996. "Children visiting the museum and Children's Underground often expect to see dinosaur bones" explained David Lynx, Curator of Education. However, when dinosaurs roamed the earth Yakima was underwater, a bay of the Pacific Ocean. No dinosaurs lived here. So Lynx decided that this exhibit would highlight this area's prehistoric past above water; the Pleistocene, when such ice age animals as the mammoth lived in Yakima, and the even earlier Miocene, when central Washington was moist and "tropical" and home to even stranger beasts.

    Science News
    April 6, 2002
    Many North American mammal species died out around 11,000 years ago, roughly coinciding with the arrival of humans on the continent. Some scientists contend that these so-called Clovis people, who made deadly spear points out of stone, hunted mammoths and all sorts of other prey to extinction in just a few hundred years. That scenario oversimplifies what probably happened, according to Russell Graham of the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. A new set of radiocarbon dates for fossil animal bones collected throughout North America indicates that a major wave of mammal extinctions occurred 11,500 years ago, before the arrival of Clovis folk, Graham says. Two further waves of extinction took place around the time of their arrival11,000 years ago and again 10,800 years ago, when mammoths and mastodons died out. A recently developed process for chemically purifying small samples of fossil bone makes the new radiocarbon dates more reliable than previous ones, which did not indicate nearly as many pre-Clovis extinctions, Graham asserts.
