The continuation of art styles through a speculated flood

Looks alot like some of Reg Butler's work. IIRC I saw one similar at the Hirshhorn.This message has been edited by jar, 09-04-2004 09:52 PM

It's like a lot of Henry Moore's work as well.

And your supporting evidence for that assertion is?

Some more references on the Jomon era in Japan can be found at Jomon period in Japan. Since there is a pretty much continuous recordd there from as early as 13,000 BC on it is a definite problem for anyone trying to support a world wide flood. Of all people, you would expect those living on an island to notice that their island disappeared and all people were wiped out. Yet there is a continuity of style straight through until around 300 BC.

None of these have anything to do with the topic.To try to get back towards the topic, how do you explain art styles like those of the Jomon or those of the Cyclades? If everyone died except the folk on the ark, first they would have to reproduce. I assume it took at least 9 month just like today. In addition they would have to increase in number and travel to Japan, in the case of Jomon.Once these folk got to Japan, many generations after the flood, why would they pick up an art stle that would have been dead for all those generations? Why do we not see any break in the style, any change, any influence from their experience of the flood?Why is this pattern repeated all over the world, in the Greek Isles, Japan, China, India, Egypt?

Are you asking me what I think the explanation of "Why is this pattern repeated all over the world, in the Greek Isles, Japan, China, India, Egypt?"If so, I can answer fairly simply. There was never a world-wide flood, at least not in the last 500,000 years or so.

And what does all that have to do with this thread?

Current Archeology is one of the leading archeology magazines from Great Britian. Here is a link to some of their information on the Jomon Pottery. They claim radiocarbon dating was used and that the earliest examples date to around 14,000 BC. This would mean that a basic style remained in practice from at least 10,000 years or more before the earliest dates for the Great Flood and at least 1000 years after the latest dates.

It doesn't have to be precise. The Jomon pottery style lasted from about 14,000BC right up to around 300 BC.
