Riyadh, Sha'ban 25, 1439, May 11, 2018, SPA --

Prince Sultan bin Salman bin Abdulaziz, President of the National Commission for Tourism and National Heritage, announced in Tokyo today the discovery of the footprints of an old man on the bank of an ancient lake in the desert of the Nafud desert in Tabuk Region in Saudi Arabia, which is dated back to 85,000 years.

Prince Sultan said that a joint Saudi international team has found traces of several adults who were scattered on land and in an old lake, each heading to a different destination. They may have been fishing around the lake for food, pointing out that these discoveries are subject to further specialized studies.

He said that the age of the footprints coincides with the fossil of the finger of a sane person recently found near the central site in the province of Taima, which is 85,000 years old.

Could be the foot prints of the first Indo-Europeans making their way out of Africa.

Proto Indo European didn't exist until after the Hyborian age, well after Conan's time, most likely around 4000 BC in the Caspian Sea area.

These hypocrites have all of a sudden discovered interest in archaeology.

They deliberately destroyed all important memorial and historic places of Prophet Muhammed PBUH, khulfa e Rashedeen so that as they claim people dont indulge in 'shirk' by giving more importance to those places than the two holy mosques.

conan is not real

It is a fiction story but the place and time is real. Conan took place in the world about 6000 BC in the iron age, after the neolithic age and the invention of agriculture, and before proto Indo Europeans AKA Aryans or sons of Aryas existed.

Saudi: Prehistoric Human Footprints Discovered in Tabuk

Prince Sultan bin Salman, president of the Saudi Commission for Tourism and National Heritage (SCTH), revealed at the “Roads of Arabia — Saudi Archaeological Masterpieces through the Ages” exhibition at the National Museum in Tokyo, Japan the discovery of footprints dating back 85,000 years in the province of Tabuk in northwestern Saudi Arabia.

Prince Sultan added that an international team of archaeologists, including Saudi experts, found traces of footprints of several early human adults scattered on the land and in an old lake.

It is said that the footprints belong to early immigrants to the Arabian Peninsula believed to have reached the site after passing the desert of An Nafud, which was a then green pasture rich with rivers, lakes and freshwater.

Prince Sultan bin Salman pointed out that the Saudi General Authority for Tourism and National Heritage is working alongside archaeologists at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History to conduct further research on the discovery.

Prince Sultan said that the project was part of the “Green Arabia: The Palaeodeserts Project,” a Saudi-British undertaking for survey and excavation to implement environmental and archaeological studies of historical sites in the Kingdom.

The objective is to study the likelihood of expansion or extinction of humans and animals and their adaptation to living conditions.

Prince Sultan further stressed that these important discoveries highlight the historical status of the Kingdom and its cultural depth, being the cradle for early human civilizations.

He pointed out that Saudi Arabia represented by the General Authority for Tourism and National Heritage and its partners in Saudi universities has become one of the most advanced countries in the field of research and archaeological discoveries.

Joint Saudi international team.....what were the Saudis doing....eating biryani?

Out of context comment.. The Saudi scientist are part of the team.. what they were eating, A cheeseburger or Biryani is not relevant to the discovery..think about an 85 000 years old find..

May b ancient Americans looking for oil

That is a good one but ancient Americans did not exist 85 000 years ago.. besides.. America has a lot of Oil too..

We already know about oil in Mexico since we import it. I think Canada should be more worried.
The five largest sources of U.S. petroleum imports by share of total imports in 2017 were

• Canada—40%
• Saudi Arabia—9%
• Mexico—7%
• Venezuela—7%
• Iraq—6%
