"Peter Alaca" . . . :

The Tardenoisian is contemporaneous with the Sauveterrian and
lasted from about 6500 BC until the Neolithic.

Try "tardenoisien"

You are free to inform and correct Wikipedia.

It was no correction, but with the indigenous term
"tardenoisien" you get additional information


So basically your arguement is full of crap.

Are you talking to me? Are you talking to me?
What argument are you talking about?

Your pedantic concern about iberia not being part of the west.

As I said, we call it Southern Europe
That is a fact, not an argument, and
I don't see the crap in it.

The Sauveterrain culture is contiguous between italy and spain,
and probably reflects the genetic similarities between the
basque and tuscans and as a source for basque nodal alleles in
the french.

Italy and Spain are Southern Europe, while you
say Western Europe in your title. That is not an
argument, that's a fact. Who is full of crap here?

You, sauveterrian cultures are part of the Western Mesolithic.
Genetically the iberian population is contiguous and shows strong
genetic relationships with NW europe and N europe. Not only in the
paleolithic but also in the holocene.

Oh, we are talking paleolithic?
So Mesolithic Western Europe is in fact
Paleolithic Southern Europe.
And all the 'cultures' you refer to are defined
on the basis of their assemblages, not on
their genes. Don't mix that up and keep in
mind that you are posting in sci.archaeology.

[...]
And instead of being pedantic like you typically are you
should have been able to dig up numerous mentions, above fish

Did I mention fish?

You should have noted the contrast.

With what?

Hey, I only said Spain is in the south!

SW is part of the S and part of the W.

You didn't say SW, You still call it West.


things like deer, pigs, horses that appeared
with some of these cultures and comparing with the eastern
iberian culture with a high percentage of land mammal meat in
their diet would invite a contrast between the culture that
centered on s. france and a transitional culture in northern
france, and a nut/fish directed culture in the Ilses.
[...]
Harpoons indicating fish or sea mammal activities.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sauveterrian
"
The Sauveterrian is the name for an archaeological culture of
the European Mesolithic which flourished around 7000-8000 years
BC. The name is derived from the type site of Sauveterre le
Lémance in the French departement of Lot et Garonne.

Try "sauveterien"

Try, again, throwing your corrections at wikipedia.

It was no correction, but with the indigenous term
"sauveterien" you get additional information

You see what TinyUrl does to your mind, you've even forgot how to
parse a Url.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maglemosian
"
Maglemosian (ca 7500 BC- ca 6000 BC) is the name given to a
culture of the early Mesolithic period in Northern Europe. In
Scandinavia, the culture is succeeded by the Kongemose culture.

Try "Maglemose"

Pedantic, see above.

It was no correction, but with the usual name
for the culture you get additional information

[...]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kongemose_culture
"
The main economy was based on hunting red deer, roe deer and
wild boar, supplemented by fishing at the coastal settlements.
"
IOW it appears that hunting red, roe deer and boar replaced a
more pescavoric culture that moved in from northern france.

Did you notice that Maglemose
and Kongemose are far North?

Yes.

Yes, Phil, In Scandinavia!

Yeah, hurrah, put down the smirnoff.

I guess that makes you a racist.

Or you drunk.

I think you are drunk for days.
