I always thought the Walking With series did a great job with cavemen, I would love a full movie with their version of neanderthals.

Not really. Prehistory ends with the invention of writing (ie. the start of discernable written history)

So ancient Egypt? Hieroglyphs were kind of writing.

People could talk back then. Neanderthals could talk. Hell, they probably had speech for hundreds of thousands of years.

It's not some new modern phenomenon.

Migrations of that length are thought to have taken generations.

1.) I hate when people mix up pre-history with humans and add dinosaurs and other bullshit.

2.) This looks boring.

Why? It's fantasy.

duh. it's a movie, dipshit.

There were several movies back in the 50s and 60s featuring this era, like 1 Million Years BC

Because its tough to do. History of mankind is constantly expanding. Gobelio Teki (misspelled but you know what it is) adds time to man's history that "experts" did not think was there.
Contrary to what some think, people weren't complete tards then. You cant be to go from wearing an animal skin to building zigurets

Kek. Why did this make me laugh so hard? Have a (You) my friend.

Every time they make something like this we get garbage like 10,000 BC in order to make things "more exiting". I don't think the setting works for movies.
For vidya, however, it is a kino setting. Dawn of Man is great.

Blame prots for translating the Bible into a million languages with their own interpretation. Nowhere in the Bible does it state the Earth is only 5000 years old. Nowhere in the Bible does it claim to be an all-encompassing account for the world's history.

Agriculture started in the Mesolithic far before writing.

>Nowhere in the Bible does it claim to be an all-encompassing account for the world's history.

Its like you don't want to learn user

You know that 'cavemen' didn't actually live in caves? And do you think that grunting retards would have been able to make something on the level of Gobekli Tepe?
People had culture and speech for thousands of years.

The real answer is, nobody knows shit about paleolithic age and that such films most often bomb.

>fables and myth are "insights" into human history
They literally are not, user.

>They literally are not, user.
Some could be user, naturally embellished by poets and the like.
People have a tendency to hype up stories above what actually happened. But there is some truth in there. Thucydides himself mentions this when discussing real trojan war vs homer's account
The problem is - whats real and what isn't?

>Blame prots
This. Funny how Christianity is the only religion that has splintered into a billion pieces. In no other religion is any interpretation considered valid (Even other Abrahamic religions) except the language it was originally written in.

>Yeah, no. Go back to /x/ already.
user historians themselves in ancient times did the same thing
See:
Herodotus
Thucydides
Diodorus Siculus
Its pretty standard practice.
But, if you refuse to notice adjoining things in all cultures like babel, flood, etc youre missing out on what might be part of our history. But, what does that matter if a secondary source who was born over 4000 years after the time period hes writing about says it didn't happen because someone else who was also born 4000 years after says the same.
Fugg if everyone listened to our academia all the time we wouldn't be aware of a city that is in the region described by homer that matches the time frame for Troy and that was destroyed by fire. We wouldn't know of Mycenae or the death masks of mycenaean kings.
People like you who think its all already figured out are why it isn't. As Gobleo Tepay proves, historians don't know

>DA HISTORY IS ALL SEKRET MAGIC AND SHEET MUH GOBLINO TEEEPAYYY MUH FLOOD

I am referring to findings by Heinrich Schliemann and some other archeologists.
Academic community at the time said Trojan war wasn't a thing. No troy, no Mycenae, etc.
Schleimann found Mycenae and actually dug through what is now thought of as troy to an even older city

You're not using that meme correctly, /x/nigger. No, I don't really put my personal trust in societies that didn't even know what germs were and believed that evil spooks in your blood made you sick.

Are you going to give me actual and hard sauce or no?

Funny how he didn't reply, huh?

Having less knowledge does not make someone retarded.

>In 1865, English archaeologist Frank Calvert excavated trial trenches in a field he had bought from a local farmer at Hisarlik, and in 1868, Heinrich Schliemann, a wealthy German businessman and archaeologist, also began excavating in the area after a chance meeting with Calvert in Çanakkale.[3][4] These excavations revealed several cities built in succession. Schliemann was at first skeptical about the identification of Hisarlik with Troy, but was persuaded by Calvert[5] and took over Calvert's excavations on the eastern half of the Hisarlik site, which was on Calvert's property. Troy VII has been identified with the city called Wilusa by the Hittites (the probable origin of the Greek Ἴλιον) and is generally (but not conclusively) identified with Homeric Troy.
It matches up, but theres no way to be 100% certain without something saying
>this is troy, Priam was king, hector died here, etc

Yes user, they were retarded, that's why the pyramids were a thing yet people now are baffled by how they were able to put them together.
They were so retarded they created geometry, screws, and even plumbing.
But youre right, theyre retarded because they didn't own an iphone

BASED

I asked for hard research from the historians you mentioned, not the wiki article for Troy and a speculative documentary.

>people are baffled as to how they built the pyramids
I honestly can't wait for this lie to die out. Pop science really did a number on zoomers, my fucking lord...

>I asked for hard research from the historians you mentioned
and the paragraph I quoted has Schleimann among others named. If you want to read what they wrote look it up. Im not going to spoon feed you from their journals

and? Does that have something to do with my point?

Okay, so you don't have a hard source? Thanks I guess, for wasting my time.

>Thanks I guess, for wasting my time.
>give names of archeologists who dug in area
>give bbc documentary
>YOU WASTED MY TIME
maybe you should look up the names and see what they found, such as arrows, death masks, armor, etc. Just a thought. But then that would require you to use your own time, not mine

>Pop science really did a number on zoomers, my fucking lord...

But yeah, Egypt made shapes and stuff. Epic.

Herodotus cautions his readers multiple times from taking everything he writes as fact since he was often only relaying what he had heard from the people he met, and while he tried to weed out the most egregious BS, stuff like ants the size of dogs who collected gold made it in.

I asked you for a source to this "hard evidence" that Troy was a city. You haven't posted that yet. I know you don't have it, since it would be front page news for every historical research group on the fucking globe. Saying "muh spoonfeed" when you can't back something up just makes you look goofy.

So show me or stop posting. Show me his direct research.

>But yeah, Egypt made shapes and stuff. Epic.
And you have to have them to do all the crap you listed. But, they retarded cause they no have super computer

>Herodotus
And Thucydides is hailed as the historian's historian and he still discusses Troy. So, Im not sure where youre goin with this

Are you trying to communicate something here?

It's actually the God Emperor's place of birth.

It's all a matter of perspective:

In 100 years, we went from carriages to a man on the fucking moon.

In 100 years of Egyptian history, nothing of that sort of drastic change ever happened.

I see the poor attempt at mockery, it's just stupid.

It's funny how you probably think you are some sort of actual/real-life smart person. Are you the same faggot who thinks Troy exists and clearly browses /x/?

im new to this thread but he meant that some advancements that ancient people (like the egyptians) came up with are necessary for the advancements that we have today, that’s how the world works dumbass, obviously they didn’t have as many advanced achievements, but they did create their own written language and their massive monuments were made without any of the construction technology we have today, this was literally thousands of years ago. none of those recent human achievements you listed would be possible without thousands of years of accumulated knowledge throughout history and from all over the world.
holy shit, your reading comprehension is bad.

>your reading comprehension is bad because you made fun of me
Right.

not him but can you not read their separate definitions? they are literally different words with different meanings.

wow nice screenshot of your quick google search, ignoring sources and context

Troy exists user.

They are both synonyms for "understanding" you semantic brainlet. They aren't actually mechanically different in any worthwhile sense, not in any grammatical fashion.

Learn your own fucking language you mutt.

your reading comprehension is bad because you went to public school

>Neanderthals could talk
got a source for that, bucko?

lmao its some seething european faggot, no wonder

you def have an iq under 100, sorry

>these are the honest to shit brainlets who argue that bigfoot is real and the earth is flat
Are you just not familiar with the grounds for what makes a word a synonym, user?

What an egregious little faggot.
He posted some of a wiki article, that surprise surprise contains sources. If you can't be arsed clicking a link and reading don't expect others to do it for you. This is 4channel not academia.

I'm American and clearly articulate in "our" language correctly. You don't even know what a goddamn synonym is or means.

Nice argument you don't have there, zoom zoom.

Wait when did you make fun of me that was the first post I made
nice straw man argument though lmao

"the ability to acquire knowledge & skills"
is not the same thing as
"facts, information, skills acquired through learning"

you understand those are two separate things even if they are similar right? and that there are situations where someone can have 'intelligence' without 'knowledge' or vice versa?

He (you), posted the wiki for Troy, that wasn't his main claim. Scroll up; his(your) argument was that "here is a historian who has hard facts to back up Troy". I asked for that to be presented, the response was "UH I WONT SPOONFEED YOU REEE".

As usual. Since you don't have it.

>what are Shia and Sunni muslims

It's linguistic semantics, probably the best example of how redudent the English language gets
>hurr durr the ability to acquire knowledge
>is no no same as skills acquired through learning knowledge
