Lake Sediments Record Climate Change At Cahokia

Climatologist Broxton Bird of Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis and colleagues analyzed layers of calcite crystals interspersed with layers of mud on the bottom of Indiana’s Martin Lake in order to learn about historic rainfall levels at Cahokia.

The study suggests that beginning in the 900s, the Central Mississippi Valley received more rain than usual. And carbon isotopes found in skeletons at Mississippian cities indicate that people ate a lot of corn. “That comes at right around 950, and that’s around the time the population at Cahokia explodes,” Bird said.

Then around A.D. 1200, at a time of increased worldwide volcanic activity, the weather pattern in North America shifted. “We switch to profound drought at A.D. 1350,” Bird explained.

According to the climate record in the Martin Lake sediments, the drought lasted for 500 years.

Archaeological evidence suggests that palisades were built at Cahokia after A.D. 1250, villages were burned, and skeletal remains show signs of decapitations and other injuries.

"C'mon Elfie we know you love talking about climate change. That's why we always post these threads no one cares about but you. And now with the Trump **** show sinking fast we have to get you out of the other threads"

"LOOK A RED HERRING!"

Who the **** was talking to you?

Not the pale faces....

The DISEASES that came with the pale faces.

Archaeologists now estimate that the population of Native Americans from Alaska all the way to South America dropped 90% just due to diseases brought by colonial settlers from Europe. Estimates say populations in North Amercan alone could have fallen from 50 million to 5 million between 1492 and 1700 and way before America as we know it crossed the Appalachian Mountains into the plains.

By all accounts this decimation of the population was completely unavoidable. The only way to have avoided it would be had Europe discovered America after the advent of 20th century vaccines.

I thought if I was a little narcissistic we might have been able to relate. Never mind.

No, you just got all your facts wrong - the people who they were talking about facing 500 years of drought in America were a whole different society of people nobody really knows much about. They were pretty advanced and got snuffed out long before Europeans arrived. They were mound builders too, maybe on their way to building pyramids .

You mean the earth gets hotter and colder for periods of time?Natural climate change?Holy frigging ice age batman! That's amazing.

No..no..no..no......NO Everything's now under control, I just read it..so it has to be true.

California's school districts have lowered their carbon footprint by 14%..

."FOE says total carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from the school lunch program declined by 14 percent. The total change is equivalent to taking roughly 127 cars off the road for a year, according to the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) official calculator. The activists also claim lunch program costs fell 1 percent."

See, all it took was to substitute beef hot dogs and pepperoni pizza for vegan stir fry tofu and vegan tostadas. And all you knuckledraggers thought it was impossible...pfft.

Now yinz just have to figger a way to make the rug rats eat that ****, I know I wouldn't.

Hey, California roads are in horrible shape, ******* bridges and dams are in disrepair and threatening to collapse, citizens pay billions upon billions in gasoline taxes supposedly to maintain roads and infrastructure but that money is stolen and used for social welfare, but at least California reduced the ******* carbon footprint for ******* school lunches!!

That's the thinking that's wrong. A climate controlled cubicle population who thinks the world can be controlled from a thermostat. And that humans control the world. Wrong!

Nature controls the world, and it can shrug off it's flea speck humans with one might volcanic eruption or a new ice age, and mankind can't stop it.

See: History.

Not in California Spike, they control everything.
