ARCHAEOLOGISTS FIND PROOF THAT NOT MUCH HAS CHANGED IN AFRICA

THE DAILY STAR/AFP:
Sudan: French archaeologists in Sudan say they have uncovered the oldest proof of human sacrifice in Africa, hailing the discovery as the biggest Neolithic find on the continent for years.

The tomb of a 5,500-year-old man surrounded by three sacrificed humans, two dogs and exquisite ceramics were exhumed north of Khartoum by Neolithic expert Jacques Reinhold and his 66-year-old Austrian wife.

"This is the oldest proof of human sacrifice in Sudan, in Egypt, in Africa," Reinhold told reporters next to the remains in the village of Al-Kadada, a three-hour drive north of the Sudanese capital.

"I don't know of another example in Africa at this level ... We don't have anything as strong in other excavations in other countries," said Reinhold, as villagers in traditional white robes carefully scraped earth into buckets.
HUMAN SACRIFICE IN SUDAN!?!?! WHOODATHUNKIT POSSIBLE!?!?

SERIOUSLY, I GUESS ONE THING HAS CHANGED: NOW YOU CAN'T FIND SO MUCH EXQUISITE CERAMICS.

The fact that Africa is home to perhaps the most ignorance, poverty, superstition, genocide, and governmental criminality won't stop George Dubya-the-liberal Bush from handing out billions to combat sexually transmitted diseases there.

What a waste.

Instead we should be building power plants, sweat-shops, highways and getting the people there fridges and stoves and cars - and every other consumer convenience.

It worked for us - and Asia.

It is truly RACIST to think that they can pull themselves put of poverty any differently than we did.
