And really, with so many real mysteries out there to investigate, why make things up and chase fairies and rainbows, you know?

Take 4000BC as Adam's time, 2000BC as Noah's time, that puts 2500BC pre flood making highly irregular erosive forces acting upon it therefore skewing Schoch's observations.
A Bible believer can discount Schoch's theory as easily as the Archeologists. So no Bible thumpers will take him serious and no professionals from the scientific community will take him serious.
Must be Aliens.........oh that is why he appears so regular on Ancient Aliens Television shows.

Harte you're being modest, you could have just directed them to your post on UM here that cuts to the chase on Sphinx dating, although it might be verboten to cross post to a rival site...

The origins of the Zodiac go back to at least Babylonian times which is the earliest postulated age of it, the Denderra temple has a 12 signs of the Zodiac located in one of the upper chambers, which i beleive was removed and taken to France, although the Denderra temple is a Ptolemaic aged temple the Zodiac was definitely known well to the Egyptians of the time, so its much older than you make it out to be at the very least. Of course like much else in the modern western world its been hijacked and taken over and mutilated.

Actually, I stated that it is older than Babylonia.
I said Sumer.
The problem is, the "Age of Leo" came before anyone ever called that constellation a lion.
Egypt didn't recognize the zodiac until the Greeks put it on them, as you say.
Without the zodiac, there is no "Age of Leo," or any other astrological age, for that matter.

Oh dear lord !
Facts are known. Any theory has to fit and explain the known facts.
Er how can you rely unwaveringly that These supposed "facts" you mention are real deal & not result from corrupt,political,financial,power fact warping govs.rulers,self servers to begin with. No doubt you will come back with condescending rebuttal.......but don't it seem a tad suss that from back thru millenium a man wittled a twig for christ sake he would pass that ability/knowledge how down like dutybound actions.....it seems knowledge ,learning,recording ,sharing,teaching were a constant . Yet....zoom to present day whereby with our tech. we cant even replicate them & sure as # can't construct a road to stand test of time yet we all around record,teach,learn,share all triumphs,duds & inbetweens still so obviously hats off to the uber smarts who did build the stuff......They superior intelligence hands down........Oh 1 thing though they ...silly brainiest walkers of this earth ....DOH ! forgot to record,teach,learn,share..Why ? The most beautiful,enigmatic,insanely exact & precise & supposedly human races most significant standout unbeatable achievement ( whenever & whoever ....if so ) & just so happens to coincide when the smartest inhabitants ever decide to drop the ball & dumb ass down to the "forgetting" of recording it. Pffft really ?? It's ok to admit we obviously don't know the answers to all lifes questions.Granted they are in egypt so technically yes they are theirs.**sarcasm alert ** Dunno though I just suppose humans NOW don't lie,cheat,kill,supress,denounce & get greedy,corrupt,self serving wrongly empowered morally deadened.Men kill fellow men for believing different beliefs because those men are right & beliefs rule lusting on false power & love yet not possible for those wishing to to alter facts & true history if/when discovered....Content to ignorantly force their agenda beliefs & corrupted power over others** ?
Face it....they are not mans doing! we can't explain em,date em,replicate em or even agree about em.....oh except that AE knocked em up.That we are definate about !!! Man I dunno....just I just dunno.....
Go 4 it .........Flame away clever folk !!:
By looking at the statue, you can easily see that the head is far too small for the body and is out of proportion, which Schoch confirmed scientifically.

Not only is it out of proportion, it is a human head, not a lion's. I wonder why Schoch didn't notice that minor detail?
