Talk:9th millennium BC

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Trans-Atlantic contact

This seems a bit far fetched to me - Trans-Atlantic trade in the 9th millennium BC? Is there a source for this?

There are some theories- Pre-Columbian_trans-oceanic_contact#Transatlantic_contact_during_the_Ice_Age. --Brunnock 20:35, Jun 21, 2005 (UTC)
From evidence of what appears to be tobacco leaves or residue found in ancient Egyption tombs. Of course this would push the earliest date of trade to about 3000 BC, not 8000 BC as stated in this article. In either case it's all highly speculative. --Jquarry 22:10, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Revamped palestine to knaan

The name Palestine was coined only in the first century AD and meaningful only when referring to the periods the area was called that way.

If it was called the land of israel it would be misnamed for the period all the same. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.183.132.213 (talk) 15:25, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Update , It appears Two users seem keen in revamping this , ignoring the reasons I stated here. I can only say that if this sums up to this wikipedias integrity will fall even lower , I am not a casual editor in here but this ignorant authority abuse Is honestly unjust and what keeps people from even trying to contribute in talk pages. I hope that someone higher up will see this and warn them. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.183.132.213 (talk) 15:40, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
