Circa 1 Human Era:
> The #Magdalenian Culture did the paintings at #Lascaux Cave. It has been suggested that the complexity of the later cave art represents an attempt by Magdalenian humans using “sympathetic magic” to cause the animals they had hunted to almost extinction or which were dying because of the end of the last ice age, to once more become abundant.

1 HE: Still the Stone and Bone Age

The Human Era began about 12000 years ago.

1 HE is also a rough approximation of the start of the current geologic epoch, the #Holocene Epoch, and approximates when the first settlements and #agriculture arose as the last ice age ended. The world-wide population of humans was approximately 5 million.

Put history into a flowing context using Emiliani's fair-to-all-humans Human Era calendar reform idea. Here is a video that introduces the reform calendar idea.

The HE calendar places year 1 at a time humans were settling into agricultural communities. It loosely matches the beginning of the “Holocene epoch” of geology. Admittedly, the choice of a particular moment in time must be arbitrary, but a point must be chosen. EMILIANI chose a point that would make the current AD/CE year numbers match with the addition of 10,000.

When the HE Calendar was first proposed by scientist CESARE (Chay-se-ree) EMILIANI in 1993 (think 11993 HE) he chose the label Human Era calendar. EMILIANI died before he was able to make his proposal a reality. We want to help bring his proposal into wide-spread use.
