I said many times before. Dogs are not naturally evolved animals. They are rather differently degenerated "races", created artificially through
inbreeding during which much genetic information from the original wolf was lost and much was erroneous. What was kept was arbitrary or what served the interest of the breeders. Big, small, aggressive, playful, fluffy, etc..
There is some evolution in the creation of the breeds of dogs. From the initial results of inbreeding, many probably did not survive.
We can see from the start different races of dogs have different "temperaments". That is a genetic predisposition of running high on certain hormones or their brain wired in a certain way. I don't know if i can find right now but sometime i read on a site that is not "humane" to cross certain breeds because the result would be too much stress on the resulting dog, due to conflicting traits.
Just googleed something about humans though. Current mainstream theories say we all evolved from a single person. But try to imagine. For that to happen, lots of inbreeding should have occurred. First generation of humans, like the Bible says, should all have been siblings, right? Can't begin to imagine the result of those inter "marriages", and the following generations.
Instead i believe a more parallel type of evolution occurred. A larger number of humans must have underwent separately a number of similar mutations, due to similar living conditions.
This could have happened during evolutionary
bottlenecks. When the evolution was significantly accelerated due to lower number of humans due to harsh living conditions, with the price of loosing some genetic inheritance from our ancestors, the chimpanzee. One of them was probably their strong muscles.
Chimpanzee muscles are different from those of humans and are
times stronger. Humans also lost the acuity of smell and hearing and senses in general and developed larger brains and the ability to do planning.
Though the chimpanzee that were not mutated into humans survived as species as well.
But i have no idea until today that during the last ice age the human population on the entire Earth was reduced to
600 individuals. However, the author is ignoring one thing. Was that a single group? Could have been other survivors in different part of the planet, and those underwent different type of mutations?
Thawing of the
continental ice moved again the water into the oceans and that started to rise oceans levels and that was perceived by humans as floods, and the legend of a flood is central in most recorded cultures on Earth (that could all have come from the same source though).
It is said during last ice age aboriginal Australians have been genetically
isolated from the rest of humans for around 50,000 years (that number vary from author to author, some giving more or up to 70 k, some less. Not clear how great was their numbers, but must have been comparable to the 600 number above.
My hypothesis is. What if during the last ice age biological and evolutionary bottleneck they underwent a separate set of mutations than the 600 in all the other continents together or maybe they did not underwent any, as the last ice age has been
milder in the Southern hemisphere.
Creating or keeping humans with a rather volcanic "temperament", way of planning, "reasoning" etc..
Time have passed and humans in the connected continents in the North flourished and gave birth to civilizations.
I believe this is the "ages" we hear about in the Hindu culture. Also. All the ice ages are cyclical. The
Kali age (Sanskrit yuga), which name seem to be related to the goddess Kali, which name may come from the aboriginal word kylie, known to us as boomerang. We also hear from Hinduism of
naraka, which became (corresponds to) Hell in European tradition.
This could have repeated (history always repeats itself, mostly because our brains are pre-programed or wired in certain ways) and on the largest scale, climate is cyclical and Hindu even has a measure for the cycles. Could these cycles be the true meaning of the curse of Samskara.
According to them, we live (again) in an age when Hell has spelt over the rest of the Earth.
The clash began indeed during the time mentioned for starting of Kali Yuga, when slave based agriculture states flourished in Egypt and Mesopotamia, pyramids were built, and the battles described in Mahabharata occurred, one of the enemies being the snakes (
nagas, noongars, magas, etc..), all as a result of waves of invasions from south that started at the beginning of Kali Yuga and lasted until Huns and Attila, but that could be the only exact time in the description of the cycles that all must be much shorter.
Question. Could the last ice age on Earth have been started by
humans?
