Graham Hancock......Refuted

[Dafunkdoc_Unlimited]

You are not arguing against my point. I was an archaeology major when Schoch first presented his theory. Dude was laughed out of the room despite the backing of a geologist at the time. I am not siding with Schoch's or Hancock's loony theories, but arguing that the process from which a hypothesis is tested is limited. Less than 80% of a dig site gets excavated, less than 50% of artifacts recovered are studied, and less than 50% of those artifacts contribute to what is published. Despite what you may think, the study of prehistory is 90% conjecture and 10% physical evidence. Had the archaeological community entertained and openly discussed and debated the theories of guys like Schoch and Hancock, we wouldn't have had Hancock on Joe Rogan's podcast or his Netflix special.

That's just how the discipline works. The fact that Schoch and others' 'theories' are discussed at all shows that the community isn't trying to 'shut him up' even though they supposedly have all this power. This makes all his claims regarding how archaeology works moot. No point in discussing or debating 'theories' with no evidence. Mention them in a textbook and K.I.M.....
