it's perfectly obvious that you may find stuff in the exact spot WHERE YOU DIG!

NO-ONE HAS EVER FOUND AN ARTIFACT IN A PLACE WHERE THEY'VE NEVER DUG!

Take Siberia for instance!

for most of the year, that part is covered in permafrost!

if we ever started digging in Siberia, we may find the remains of a very early civilisation.

the reason why nobody has ever found the remains of an early civilisation in Siberia, is not because it dosn't exist, it's because we havn't dug in Siberia.

that's all their is to it!

"EDITED"


LOTS of work going on in Siberia actually, mainly stone age sites going back at least 25K b.p, ( note I use the erm b.p or Before Present, most archaeologist shun the term BC as it is very inaccurate!) much of the Lithic industries we find in Siberia are contemorary or precede the "paleo Indian" industries found here in Canada and the United States
