If Indiana Jones happened to be a member of Tweb, this is where he'd hang out.

    On the assumption that 300,000 years was determined very accurately. This would make the Biblical flood over 300,000 years ago.

      Use of fire is more ancient then 300,000 years. Dating methods are usually more than one method. Dating the bone, not using C14 dating, was the most likely the primary method.
