Talk:Paleolithic

undeniable things about the population in Africa and Middle east in the Paleolithic

https://archaeologie.bemerkenswelt.de/en this is ground-breaking stuff, the images are satellite imagery from Google Earth so there's no doubt about that, it has placemarks of all stone age formations in Africa and Middle east! TL;DR Africa and Middle east were far more populated. Implement this large chunk of knowledge somewhere on the page, maybe even in a theories section! I hope the idea gets to the scientific community so they can research it more.. 178.221.182.108 (talk) 10:22, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

That looks like a very unreliable source and I doubt we can use it. The majority of the images on that page are of desert kites, which are well-studied and which we have a good article on, and keyhole monuments (monuments en trou de serrure), which we don't have an article on (yet) but are also known and dated. Neither are Palaeolithic, nor signs of particularly high population densities in the past. – Joe (talk) 11:42, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

Yes - the site is fun, but on a non-exhaustive look it doesn't claim anything about the Paleolithic anyway. Indeed, all comments I saw about dating were admirably vague and cautious. Johnbod (talk) 12:17, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

References problems (February 2025)

refrence 1 is a book that the website costs money to see so it can't be a reference and reference 18 is not working. Latin clash (talk) 05:19, 8 February 2025 (UTC)

Typo

Under the Other Inventions sub-heading at the end of the first paragraph it says "....60 km of open ocean at 30,000 BCcal." which I believe should read "....60 km of open ocean at 30,000 BC." Efkinitos (talk) 16:58, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

Where is Asia?

Should this article be called Palaeolithic or White men's palaeolithic page. Did not expected Wikipedia also believes human means whites. Bathwalpiyush (talk) 13:47, 22 August 2026 (UTC)

Change the A.I. picture of the mammoth being hunted by humans under the section "Paleogeography and climate". There are pictures that represent ancient human mammoth hunting techniques that are not produced by A.I. oki thanks :) Dolly the sheep2006! (talk) 22:07, 26 August 2026 (UTC)
