Follow The Steps Of The Ancestors: Ancient Footprints Discovered In Bursa (Video)

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


 

 

(N.Morgan) In an extraordinary discovery archeologists have uncovered a very pristine footprint dating to the Neolithic period 6,400 B.C. The footprint was located during excavations in Barçın tumulus in the northwestern province of Bursa’s Yenişehir district. Koç University academic, Rana Özbal, said works had been continuing in Barçın tumulus since 2007 under the coordination of the Culture and Tourism Ministry and the Dutch Research Institute. She said the oldest settlement in the region dated back to 8,600 B.C., adding, “The houses in tumulus are semidetached. In one of the houses, we have found a pair of footprints and now we are searching for how they appeared.” “The floor of the house was plastered. When the plaster was still wet, the footprints remained on the floor.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sometime later the house burned down. Thanks to this fire, the prints have remained until now. According to radiocarbon estimations, the footprints date back to 6,450 B.C,” she added. Even though several footprints were discovered during the Marmaray excavations in Istanbul, Özbal claimed that the ones in Yenişehir were much older. Conservation expert Evren Kıvançer, who is working on the footprints, said those prints could not be kept in the excavation area. “To make it an artwork, we had to take these footprints from the excavation area and stabilize them. The prints had become hard thanks to the fire. This made our work easier,” Kıvançer said, adding “these prints are good enough to tell us the person’s height, weight and even gender.”

      :grin: I was there, I know what happened….

      Here some more proof people were smoking weed even back in the Neolithic age!

      Ozzie took a break after laying and smoothing out the plaster on the floor. Ozzie’s friend “OGG” came into the hovel and mistakenly walked on the fresh plastered floor. Ozzie and Ogg just laughed hysterically at what OGG had just done and nobody seemed to mind. There was no Killing in those days. Then OGG took out his POT pipe and Ozzie got a match and took a toke from the bowl until his finger began to burn and threw the match on Harriet’s dirty bear skins basket which caught fire and smoked Ozzie and Ogg out of the burning house.

      Ozzie’s Insurance company failed to pay for the damages, so later Ozzie Sued OGG, Harriet Divorced Ozzie for being a Dope Addict and OGG killed Ozzie and took his wife back to his cave.

      This is probably the most True Story on BIN

      Sincerely, GROGG (speaking of “GROGG”…….. time for another beer!) :cool:
