Impossible Stuff Found In Coal And Rock

[Perry LaGuardia Profile]

I suppose youve heard of "The London Hammer"

Why haven't they carbon dated the wood in the hammer?

The hammer's artistic style and the condition of the handle suggest a historically recent age. It may well have been dropped by a local worker within the last few hundred years, after which dissolved sediment hardened into a concretion around it. Unless Baugh or others can provide rigorous evidence that the hammer was once naturally situated in a pre-Quaternary stratum, it remains merely a curiosity, not a reliable out-of-place artifact.
