INTERDOC_13 — Out of Africa vs. Multiregional: The Synthesis That Changed Everything

The two dominant models of human origins battled from the 1980s through the 2010s. Chris Stringer and Peter Andrews championed the Recent African Origin (RAO) model (1988, Science): anatomically modern humans evolved exc

INTERDOC_18 — Volcanic Winter, the Bronze Age Collapse, and Civilizational Fragility

The Thera eruption (Santorini, ~1628 BCE or ~1530 BCE — dating remains contested) ejected an estimated 60 km³ of material — four times the volume of Krakatoa (1883). Ice core evidence from Greenland (GISP2) and tree-ring

INTERDOC_57 — Cascade Pattern Across Civilization Resets

Three civilization-altering events — the Younger Dryas climate reversal (c. 12,800 years ago), the Late Bronze Age Collapse (c. 1177 BCE), and the Justinianic Plague (541–549 CE and centuries of recurrence) — share struc

INTERDOC_64 — Cross-Cultural Constellations: Independent Invention vs. Diffusion as a Knowledge-Transmission Probe

The 88 modern IAU constellations are a cultural product — 48 from Ptolemy (~150 CE, derived from Mesopotamian/Babylonian sources), 12 from Keyser and de Houtman (~1596, Dutch East Indies), and 28 filled in by 17th–18th c
