Well, my question is, did he submit this to Nature or Science first? (oh
and you say they wouldn't publish this, so he took it to the Web...?)

: NEW SHOCKING INFORMATION FOR THE
: SPACE AND TIME OF THE APPEARENCE
: OF HUMAN BEING ON EARTH
: By Dr. Aris Poulianos
: Anthropopaleologist, Head of the excavations in the cave of Petralona
: in Halkidiki and Member of the Permanent International Council of
: Anthropological and Ethnological Sciences
: After 35 years of continuing researches in the SE Europe and excavations
: in the
: cave of Petralona in Halkidiki, Dr Aris Poulianos came to
: the following conclusion and for the first time announces that:
: "the credle of the humankind shouldn't be
: considered any more Africa but the peninsula of Halkidiki
: and
: generally
: the vast area of the North Aegean"
: His position is based on the thousands of tools, made of copper and bones,
: found
: in all Halkidiki and in the vast area of Northern Greece
: generally.
: The age of this specific toolmaking is
: eleven
: (+/- 1) million years approximately, which means the
: Upper Miocene.
: The majority of the foundings are exposed in the Anthropological Museum of
: Petralona, built near the cave by Dr Poylianos.
: The toolmaking is accompanied by hundreds of remaining of animals
: skeletons,
: used by the Homo erectus of Miocene for his nutrition and
: by hominid coprolites, that Poulianos named Homo erectus trilliensis.
: Two craniums, an entire skeleton and a jaw-bone of the homonite, have been
: lost
: forever in the waters of Aegean, by the corrosion and
: because of the insensibility and bureaucracy of the Greek State, which
: never
: allowed their timely salvation.
: Poulianos considers that the Trillian homonid, has been develloped in an
: autonomous and independent way from the rest of the Higher
: Primates who lived in the area. The evolution of the Higher Primates in
: this
: space breaks the chain that links together all other branches of
: the species of the Higher monkey-like due to tremedous geological and
: ecological
: rearrangements that took place in the North Aegean and
: in North Greece, during the Medium Miocene, fifteen to twenty million
: years ago.
: A result of these changes, that can be observed only in
: this area of the earth at this specific time, are the forests which had
: become
: petrified, met today from the area of Kastoria to Ellyspontos.
: The preperations of art (toolmaking) of the Homo erectus Trillians are not
: related to the toolmaking which we meet in other species of Higher
: Primates like the Australiopithikus of Africa, like Lucy, for example. For
: this
: reason Dr Poulianos does not consider that the Australiopithikus
: (Australio-Monkeys) of Africa are taking part to the creation of the human
: being.
: The Trillian homonid who is the ancestor of all modern human beings who
: live
: today in earth, is linked with the modern human being by the
: same PROSPECTIVE as to the manufacture of his tools, for the last twenty
: million
: years continiously, regardless if the tools are made of
: stone, bones, iron or steel. This red thread of the same prospective till
: today
: is the corner stone of his theory, that the modern human being
: has his roots to the remote past of the twelve million years with the same
: neurophysiology in brain till today. For this reason is being
: considered as a separate and autonomous specie, from the rest of the
: Higher
: Primates.
