Recorded human history doesn't go back 10'000 years. It's closer to 5000 years.

    You're very much right. Complex writing systems like we have now begin around 4000-5000 years ago. You can get closer to the right number with proto-writing systems, but unfortunately just barely within what the Christian faith allows.

    I guess the Christians can take the W on that one, discounting all over physical evidence of humanity's existence beyond 6500 years ago.
