Hi Paul -

The myth of Phaethon appears to precede Cheimgau by several centuries.

Along the same lines, Sumerian impact traditions were explored by me many years ago:

That said, what produced the Cheimgau features are still under discussion, as are the YD events.

If you want dead, try the mammoths and mastodons and some 41 other species.

Now that's dead for you.

PS - oh yeah, I know about that arctic island survival of pygmy mammoth - anything else you want to bring up?
