How do you know that? Have you been sneaking a peek at the PA
literature again, or did you get that from the National Enquirer? Maybe
the last axe ever made was ground, but not the ones washed up on the
Pleistocene beaches.

I was merely pointing out that hominids
have manually ground hand-axes. The
'grinding' that takes place naturally on
beaches would be far more severe.

Also carefully note the handaxe distribution map and lack of any
seashore pattern.

Note the distribution of whale fossils (or of
the fossils of any marine animal) and you
will see a lack of any "seashore pattern".

Seashores move rapidly (as it seems you don't
realise). I'm close to the sea at the moment
(as are a high proportion of modern humans).
15 kya it would have been about 300 miles
away from here. Human fossils from that era
are NOT located around here (one reason
being the half mile of ice covering the ground)
but close to those coasts. The 'sea-shore'
pattern of those fossils would -- if they still
existed -- be deep under the sea.

It is quite interesting how such basic facts
have been well 'known' for decades -- but have
not been absorbed IN ANY WAY by standard
PA. Your profound ignorance of all relevant
issues is characteristic of the entire "science".

"....together with some 60 Olduvaian choppers and flakes. The whale
measured 18 feet long and was probably a baleen, according to Claude
Guérin of Lyon's Université. The site is still littered with the
shells, sharks' teeth, and sea urchins of the ancient shore, now two
miles distant and 300 feet above the sea."

Dust in months, right?

IF the bones of every whale that died on a
beach remained undamaged, we'd have paleo-
coastlines marked by huge piles of them,
thousands of feet high, and kilometres wide.

It is astonishing that you regard the survival
of the bones of a single whale as remarkable.

Even the fragile sea urchins are still there, my, my.

IF all sea-urchins that were deposited on a
beach remained undamaged, we'd have paleo-
coastlines marked by huge piles of them, tens
of thousands of feet high, and hundreds of
kilometres wide.

It is astonishing that you regard the survival
of a tiny number -- washed up above the
level of last high tide at that location -- as
remarkable.

<snip delusional lip-service ramblings>

Simple questions that you can't answer do
not constitute "delusional lip-service ramblings".
Here they are again:

What exactly is your 'argument'?
a) That sea-levels have always been the same
as they are now?
b) That when sea-levels rise and fall, they do
so in a mysteriously gentle manner? That
waves and storms cease during such times?
c) That the destructive effects that we can see
on every beach are illusory?
d) That since you have never thought of this
before, nor read about it in any textbook or
PA 'science' journal, then it can't possibly
be true?
