The written documents of history stop at the day before yesterday. The earliest texts come from the Sumerians. Records go back a iittle further in mythic form. Gilgamesh was King of the Sumerian city-state of Uruk in 2700 BC. The Kpic which hears his name has some familiar features. It has a Ci.irdcn of 1'dcii, a Hero's descent to the Underworld (witli.1 safe return) and a Flood. In the same way, the best tH;ill evidence that humans did evolve and that they arc members of the animal kingdom comes from our own ancient records. Without fossils, the portrait of our forebears can never be complete. A historian who knows only the modern world would find it impossible to infer the progress of, say, Turkey and the United States just from what exists today. All historians need documents from the past. To have confidence in their theories evolutionists must have the same thing.
