"SOFIA, Bulgaria (AP) -- Archaeologists have excavated a 72,000-year-old
settlement in a cave in northern Bulgaria.
Bulgarian archaeologists made the find at the Devetashkata Cave near Pleven,
100 miles northeast of the capital, Sofia, the state BTA news agency reported

I get to this page via

and then chose the "Medical and Science Page"
A 72,000 year old settlement with the cultural items which they list would
be an extremely important find. They even say that there were clay figures
(which is why I think they made a factor of 10 error. Trying to obey my
dictim that when something supports what you believe, you should be very
skeptical I am hoping this is true. I worry that the wire has made a mistake
by a factor of 10. Has anyone else seen this reported anywhere else?
At this moment I don't believe this, but it isn't April Fools' day either.
This post probably won't be on the AP past tonight.
