It turns out the earliest form of writing may have not taken place in Mesopotamia, but in pre-historic Germany. Archeologists have discovered symbols carved into tools and figurines that many believe was a precursor to written language. For decades, it was believed that human writing as we know it first began in ancient Sumer roughly 5,000 years ago. These symbols found in Germany date back at least 40,000 years.

People are missing the bigger picture of this story

It means the indo Europeans arrived in Germany 35,000 years before we thought

*that* is a paradigm shifting finding that blows up consensus history

Or it could be written language.

I don’t believe that the Akkadians or Sumerians were actually the earliest civilizations. I believe that hundreds of unknown civilizations have existed that we don’t know about.

I also don’t believe that humans arrived in China or Europe only 10,000 years ago or less. Modern humans have been around for hundreds of thousands years. There’s no way we waited until just 10,000 years ago or even 20,000 years ago to migrate to remote areas of the world like Europe, East Asia, or the Americas. I think it happened way farther in the past.

It does not mean that.

What they found is evidence of writing, not evidence of a fully formed writing system. More importantly, there is no evidence of connection to any known language.

This has nothing to do with Indo-Europeans

You mean what they found ISN’T connected to writing that was formed 35,000 years later?

Genius work there Sherlock.

Of course. It means the world owes its civilization, it's history, to the Germanic race.
