The Sinking & S.T.A.R.C.A.R.R.
Apr 20, 2004, 18:57
As Fitz somewhere says, the Deluge was real. Not only is Starcarr one of these Mesolithic sits but Ower Bank is in the middle of the North Sea, when Britain was joined to the Continent and folks went up and down in search of prey. Around 5,000 BCE the temperature was even warmer than it is today and it was then that forests spread and there was a general blossoming of plants creating one of the richest ecosystems in the Western Atlantic. Once this happened, there was no more impending need to follow the wild herds, and many Proto-Megalithics began to settle. After all, isn't getting shellfish some sort of proto-farming?
