A real 10000BC

Not to mention nonsense, let us take a look at the real 10,000 BC.

First of all, mammoths existed at this time (between 3 million and 10,000 BC), but according to speculation, the number should be very small, or it could not explain why the mammoths suddenly became extinct 10,000 years ago. The extinction of the mammoth marks the end of the Quaternary Ice Age. The large-scale mammoth migration scenes in the movie are unlikely to exist.

It is impossible for the saber-toothed tiger to appear because it was extinct 1 million years ago. As for the bird, we don't know what it is.

Horse. It is certainly a horse that was not domesticated in 10,000 BC. The greatest domesticated horse of mankind appeared in today's Ukraine in 4000 BC. This has been recognized. No matter how big the error is, it cannot appear in 10,000 BC.

As for 10,000 BC, the most likely domesticated animal is the dog (10,000 BC).
Sheep (8000 BC) and goats (8000 BC) are barely possible, but pigs are unlikely, because although pigs were domesticated around 8000 BC, they were in China. The independent domestication of pigs in the Mesopotamia region will be delayed by about 1,000 years.



Food and farming.
We cannot say absolutely that human society did not domesticate edible plants before 10,000 AD. But the earliest evidence we can give from archaeology is that wheat appeared in the Fertile Crescent (Meso-he River Basin) around 8500 BC. So far, no traces of earlier human cultivation have been found.

What we can be sure of is that the segment of the seed in the movie is wrong. Because the corn is produced in Central America, it will not appear in black areas in 10,000 BC. At least until Columbus discovered the New World.

As for the black Africans who started farming and teaching white people in 10,000 BC, this is unlikely. In the current archaeology, the Satler region of Africa, the tropical regions of West Africa, and the regions of Ethiopia can only be classified as areas where independent farming is "possible", but there is no evidence to prove it. The most likely scenario is that the ancient primitives of the Mesopotamia spread farming to Europe and Africa. (This is understandable, the animal diversity of the African continent is much higher than that of other continents, fishing and hunting are more convenient than farming)


As for what people wear, we can be sure that it cannot be cotton. Because cotton was domesticated by humans in India about 3500 BC. So the biggest possibility is flax. Current evidence shows that European flax cultivation first appeared in 7500 BC. Let's take a step back and say that archaeology has not found earlier evidence. Therefore, we can barely think that the fiber products in the movie are possible. However, when we saw the gorgeous gauze and silk fabrics in the movie, we completely broke down. Because in 10,000 BC, ancient humans in China had not been able to domesticate an insect called "silkworm". Therefore it is impossible to have such a gorgeous costume.

Metal. It can be said with certainty that there can be no metal in 10,000 AD. To put it rigorously, it is impossible for metals to appear on a large scale. Because we can't rule out that by chance, a primitive human who was lucky enough to find that a tool made of meteorite is more expensive than any stone tool. But it is impossible to have a large number of ready-made meteorites waiting for you to use as weapons.

As for the stirrups. It only appeared in the Roman period (the Han Dynasty in China) after the Christian era.

linguistics. . . This is too difficult. But we can be sure that there was no modern English at that time. :-) To


sum up, 10000BC is actually a science fiction movie, even a deification movie.
