THE "PREHISTORIC" WORLD The word “prehistoric” is very misleading. This word cannot be found in Webster’s 1828 American Dictionary to the English Language because the word wasn’t needed before Darwin’s theory of evolution was invented. The New Webster’s Dictionary and Thesarus, 1992 edition, (which Noah Webster DIDN'T write) defines “prehistoric” with these words: “of or related to the period before recorded history.” Most historians agree that recorded history begins between 4,000 and 3,500 B.C. As a brief example, consider these words from the World Almanac: “If history began with writing, the first chapter opened in Mesopotamia, the Tigris-Euphrates river valley. The Sumerians used clay tablets with pictographs to keep records after 4000 B.C." So, “prehistoric” would have reference to a time period before 4,000 B.C. There is no real evidence that such a time period ever existed, so there is no real proof that “prehistoric” animals ever lived. The Bible record (part of recorded history) is that all animals were created around 4,000 B.C., so all “prehistoric” findings are actually the remains of animals which died between 4,000 B.C. and our present day. Yes, this includes dinosaurs. Also notice that in the World Almanac quote above recorded history begins exactly where Adam and Eve began--”the Tigris-Euphrates river valley.” (Gen. 2:10-15)
