Howdy Jones,
The presumption of time being linear can be even more troubling. Studying a
child's spinning top as the decay of rotation is observed may offer a clue
to certain inconsistancies that plague studies of the past.
In it's final decay, the top exhibits very erratic behavior as if in attempt
to explain in itself ,why the gradual reduction in rotaional speed should
not be perfect in it's spiral message ( uniform gradualism) and is caught in
inconsistancies.
The decay rotation is accompanied with sudden "lurching" and attempts to
return to uniformity as if the top has a programmed memory.
This observation, in turn, offers a clue to "time " warps and unexplainable
" phenomena" ..which can explain why a drunk at the Dime Box saloon doesn't
fall off the stool straight to the floor.. he tries to explain by attempting
to right himself.
Regarding the races. Africa cannot be used as a benchmark although they have
had enough years ( + 6000 and change).
Southern Lousiana around New Iberia has a "Cajun" content with a heavy
"afro" flavor blended in. This only required some 300 years and a distinct
blending has emerged. A like happening can be seen just south of Mexico city
in the rainforest highlands and in the mid highlands of central America
where "blending" has been active for 300 years.
One of the best clues to study the past is not language.. but.. music. ask
any Rap man. One minute may seem like a thousand years.. because thats how
long it took for a minute to pass in the past.. hmm.. better slide that jug
down the bar.
