CHALLENGING
THE DIKTATS OF SCIENCE

This
was apparently the most outstandingly dramatic finding in archeology
today. A piece of skull, found in a peat bog hole near Hamburg, Germany,
was supposed to be more than 36,000 years old. What if it would have
been the missing link between the Neanderthal man and the modern man?
This is what a distinguished Herr Doktor Professor Reiner Prorsch von
Zieten declared to his fellow scientists who cheerfully applauded after
he had been invited to date his finding. But this feat marked the end
of this good professor's career, since evidence finally showed that
he had knowingly falsified the dating of this stone-age relic, and of
many others.
The
University of Frankfurt-am-Main was sorry to announce that he had been
asked to retire because of his "numerious falsifications and manipulations".
According to experts, the professor's fakes and frauds would imply that
a whole part of the History of Man's Evolution be re-written. "The
Anthropology will have to completely revise the modern man chart for
the period of time between -10,000 and -40,000 years" said Thomas
Terberger, the archeologist who uncovered the hoax. According to the
works of Herr Professor Prorsch, anatomicaly some "modern"
humans had procreated with Neanderthalian humans, which is absurd of
course.
In
fact, the skull would date back -5,000 years, a long time after Neanderthalian
men had disappeared. This discovery also would have meant that the territory
of Neanderthalian men extended much further North than previously estimated.
This
scandal burst out when Herr Professor Protsch was caught as he was trying
to sell his department's whole collection of chimpanzee skulls to the
USA. As the inquiry proved later, he also had counterfeited fossils
that he swore were real, and had copied the works of other scientists.
Evidence appeared also that this vailant 65-year-olded professor was
unable to operate his carbon-datation device properly.
