HISTORY
OF THE END OF THE WORLD
NORDIC
ATLANTEAN MELTINGPOT
Once
upon a time, say 40.000 years ago, giant mammoth abd woolly rhinos
roamed the North-Sea and parts of the Atlantic Ocean. Most of the
water in the North turned into ice and sea-levels were more than 200
meters lower. The Waddensea was dry land and the islands just hills
in a large plain.
Mammoths,
rhinos, wild horses, “ur-oxen” and giant deer, were hunted by
mountainlions, wolves, bear and of course humans.
Supposedly
hunting parties from the south found their way to the North snd
wandered into a marshy and bushy tundra. Here they hunted big game
and caught giant salmon and sturgeons. These hunters build only
temporarely shelters and left nothing behind but the carcasses of
their prey..
When
temperatures rose and the tundra became fertile land and the hunters
settled Doggerlant with their families. The whole area was a
oaradise, filled game, birds, fish, clear water and plenty of food.
The human settlers flourished and they became tall hunters and
warriors.
These
giants survived the first Flood, that exterminated the big
grass-eaters and their migration-patterns. Many ice-bridges
diasppeared and the mammoths could not reach Siberia. Many drowned.
In the first years the hunters had their prey for the taking.
Mammoths, giant-deer, cavebear wandered aimesly around. Mut after a
couple of years, say 1000, their numbers dwindled and a whole group
of giant-mammals disappeared into history.
Man
and wolf stayed behind
