Very recently was some evidence pushing it back from 14k to 24k years before present
http://nouvelles.umontreal.ca/en/articl ... n-thought/100k years before present seems like a huge leap considering it was 65k years before present when modern humans are estimated to have left Africa. Homo erectus maybe though, but still seems unlikely because of temperature; I don't think there was a land bridge then but i am not sure

i'm gonna say no until there is 100% conclusive evidence. the likelihood of a hominid making it out of africa and to the americas that early without any evidence prior is just so unlikely.

I bet the pyramids and some buildings in S.America are way older then what they think.

Extremely unlikely, but the uranium-thorium dating method seems extremely legit. What explanations could there be for that?

Wonder why todays primitive tribes aren't constructing massive monuments the way we said they did in the past?
