Seeing Rock Art through the Eyes of the Elders
David Lee - Western Rock Art Research
There are still a few places on earth where traditional peoples use rock art images to aid in intergenerational instruction and in ceremonies. Wardaman Country in northern Australia is one such place. This lecture will present information gathered during 10 field seasons working with Wardaman Elder Yidumduma Bill Harney to document Wardaman rock art sites and Mr. Harney’s traditional knowledge of the land, the sites, and the images. It will also describe some of the logistics required and the experiences and insights gained while living and working “out bush.”

    'This place is large enough for all of us, just throw away your guns and we can all live together." Word's of simple endearing truth, a timeless expression impossible to misunderstand in post contact time.. Even without words the contemporary painted depiction of a peaceful suggestion after contact & introduction to such weapons speaks clearly for itself. Sticks & Stones the basic gift of tasking hands having the ability to work with ease through utility, & guns giving the ability to reach out and touch somebody or something from afar & in the wrong hands & minds leaving little time for having second thoughts about a temporary anger that can be deployed with ease by a simple soft flick of the finger, often starting a domino effect among those who are empowered & possessed by guns.

    The overkill hypothesis is absolutely ridiculous. There's no way people could have killed that many animals so quickly. Climate change wasn't the reason either. Over the last 2 million years the mega fauna had survived many episodes of rapid climate change. There is substantial evidence of multiple comet fragment impacts in the black mat layer. Hasn't anyone noticed the Clovis sites that were so prevalent in the east almost disappeared entirely entirely right in the same places where all the Carolina Bays happen to be? A comet hit the ice sheet in the Great Lakes area, where it was more than a mile thick. That launched thousands of chunks of ice bigger than houses up into the stratosphere and above and causing an enormous earthquake that liquified the sandy soils, so when the ice chunks landed they created the Carolina Bays. It wasn't nearly as big as the Chicxulub impact, but it was big enough to knock down the populations of some species so much that they eventually went extinct. Maybe humans played a roll in killing off some off the survivors.

    You know what I am finding out? There were TWO WAVES of peopling of Europe. An early one with the Auragnacians and Gravettians and Solutreans and several others. Then all those disappeared and after 2,000 or 3,000 years, anothercwave began from the Caucasus and the steppes from due east plus others coming up thru the Balkans. That last influx began apparently around 9,000 y.a. After the others ended roughly at the end of the Bolling. This suggests that the Americas were being peopled for 2,000 years while Europe was more or less empty. The British Isles even with Doggerland above water did not get its current genetic population until about 5500 years ago. As this hit me, I was flabbergasted. It might be wrong, so far, it doesn't look like it.

In other words, a "pre-Amerindian" population that was largely replaced by later arrivals from Beringia but left genetic traces in *some* later Native American populations.

    If you accept that people first came through Beringia, why are there older settlements in south America? I don't believe there is enough evidence to say the first people came through Beringia and that this hypothesis is just more of the Clovis 1st proponents not being able to let go of their prejudices. Clovis technology has no relationship to siberian technology. Clovis technology is more like salutrean lithic technology. No Clovis lithic technology found along the Beringian path right? My belief is that migration didn't just happen one way and at one time. Genetically, explain X2, Australasian and Denisovan DNA in South America. The rapid genetic activity could have been from more rapid admixture, not the FIRST migration. How did Solutrean lithic technology arrive on the east coast of NA? Artifacts didn't get there by being washed from Europe during a tsunami. That data cannot be ignored, it HAS TO BE ACCOUNTED for. There are many many Solutrean artifacts on the east coast and in fact most of the Clovis sites are on the east coast also. Having DNA doesn't mean they are the FAMs, only that DNA was found representing a certain people at a certain time. Although there are no time IDs for some of the smaller DNA contributions, they shouldn't be discounted.......didn't scholars learn anything from Clovis 1st debacle? Of course, earlier peoples like White Sands could have come by a different route. You are using the term FAM for people that came AFTER the White Sands people. Why are the White Sands people from 23,000 years ago not considered the FAMs? Its also interesting that there is no transitional lithic technology between ancient siberian people and Clovis people but the Clovis technology is so close to Salutrean technology. There is mitochondrial X2 European DNA found in small amounts in North America. How did that arrive?

      I think the reason he left out pre-Clovis locations like Cooper's Ferry, Meadowcroft, White Sands etc. are because the archeological evidence at those sites don't represent large-scale migrations. There are also a couple of lectures I was watching where some people who initially supported the ages of the White Sands footprint changed their minds after further carbon testing of the seeds embedded in the WS footprint. I'll try to find the lectures if I can, but I forgot if I watched them on RUclips or other interviews elsewhere.

As a flint knapper who has visited Glass Buttes, I am curious if XRF has been done on any Obsidian artifacts to know the probable source of the Obsidian found at this site? Now a comment for which there is no scientific answer. ……. Is it not curious that this site was visited so many times over thousands of years. While proximity to running water is an obvious draw to the area besides the physical outcrop over hang that offered protection, I could not discern from the talk if the visits were judged one time or prolonged periods of habitation? I am also curious if Hammer Stone artifacts were found? Is there evidence of edge re-touch on the projectile points indicating antler flaking? As flint knappers know, over shot flaking, is an essential part of thinning a projectile point and is a trait of knapping technology which seems to have Clovis origins. Personally, I would like to know the Width to Thickness ratio of points judged older than 13,500 or thereabouts and closer examination of the flake scar pattern on the older artifacts judged to predate Clovis. Finally, a big WOW, because this site and the Cooper’s Ferry leave us watchers wanting and waiting for more such discoveries.
