Around 10,000 years ago, the earth’s population was estimated to be either 1 or 5 million Homo Sapiens, depending on your choice of references. That is the beauty of the Internet; you can always find a source of data that will support your theories. If you can not find the data you seek to reinforce your idea, merely throw in some Outer Space Aliens to support your conclusions. The HISTORY(?) CHANNEL does this all the time. So… let’s assume there were 5 million cavemen living on earth 10,000 years ago, of which quite a few were living in the Americas. These Ice Age “Indians” also shared their terrain with a few other mammals who no longer reside here. Mammoths, Mastodons, Giant Sloths, and Saber-toothed Cats are just a few who drank at the same watering holes because plumbing pipes weren’t invented yet. Anyway, the motivating forces that drive all
lifeforms are to survive and multiply. Occasionally, a Saber-toothed trio of mom and 2 kittens would appear, and distance between the 2 species was provided. One day, mom was killed by an adult Mammoth, who did not like her stalking her offspring. The kittens, driven by thirst, came back to the water hole and were spotted by a group of troglodytes (cave dwelling people). The little kittens posed no threat to these cavemen and their children, so they were compassionately adopted into the clan. Over time, the humans had unwittingly created a situation where a disease of 1 group jumped over into another species with no resistance to it. This explains the discrepancy between the 2 population estimates of between 1 and 5 million humans. There WERE 5 million cavemen, and the resulting Saber-toothed Flu decimated the remaining hearty humans down to a mere million. It was the first instance of humanoid cross-species contamination, and today, its mutated, less virulent form shows up in modern humans as the uncureable common cold or CAVEMAN COVID 8,000 BC. No Outer Space Aliens were required.
