This seems a bit far fetched to me - Trans-Atlantic trade in the 9th millennium BC? Is there a source for this?
The name Palestine was coined only in the first century AD and meaningful only when referring to the periods the area was called that way.
If it was called the land of israel it would be misnamed for the period all the same. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.183.132.213 ( talk) 15:25, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
one misnaming isn't better then the other. If you want to be super correct use the geological naming Palestine is a provincial naming of the area used by different colonial empires and adopted by the correct palestinians early in modern tmes, Israel was the ancient Kingdom of Israel in the second millenium bc and the modern state niether existed during 9k bc! or if you want to reffer to the actual naming of the regions I guess you might use Israel for all of its de facto controlled territories (autonomy or whatever) Palestine for whatever the palestinins claim and start a deayed edit war with anyone who reads this (remote) page which for my opinion is a good thing anyway (to build up articles). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.110.84.175 ( talk) 18:35, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
Update , It appears Two users seem keen in revamping this , ignoring the reasons I stated here. I can only say that if this sums up to this wikipedias integrity will fall even lower , I am not a casual editor in here but this ignorant authority abuse Is honestly unjust and what keeps people from even trying to contribute in talk pages. I hope that someone higher up will see this and warn them. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.183.132.213 ( talk) 15:40, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
In this article it is stated that Maglemosians were seen already from c. 8750 BC. However in the article about Maglemosian culture, it is stated that they dwelled about 7500-6000 BC. This is not good, as it means a difference of ~ 1200 years. Who is right? -andy 92.227.80.165 ( talk) 15:56, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
All sources I've ever found say that dogs were domesticated up to 100,000 years ago. At any rate, it is well known that they were domesticated before the 9th millennium BC. Punkrockrunner ( talk) 17:31, 9 November 2008 (UTC)punkrockrunner
I'm not a Christian, and 'BC' refers to something that is only belived by Christians. It is wrong that wikipedia should use BC. 'BCE' is the recognised universal terminology. this page name should be changed. Colt .55 ( talk) 20:01, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

Thank you, Dunkleosteus77, for starting the review. I'm rather short of time today but I've given answers to most of the points raised above. I should have more time tomorrow. By the way, you don't need to sign each point individually. It's usual to add a summary at the end of the list and just sign that. No Great Shaker ( talk) 11:54, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
Hello again, Dunkleosteus77. I've made a few amendments to this article as well as enhancing 10th millennium BC with some new information. A few comments about my findings:
Anyway, do take a look and see what you think. I should have more availability for the next couple of days and happy to answer further queries. Thanks again. No Great Shaker ( talk) 06:01, 22 July 2020 (UTC)
