3 Large femur from a 17 Foot Ice Age Columbian Mammoth less than five thousand years old T. Rex collagen found in the bone in the 1916-Hell Creek Formation. In 1995, Professor Mark Armitage discovered collagen filaments intact in the bone fragments of a T. Rex. The inside of the bone was scanned by an electron microscope. The presence of collagen would suggest that this supposedly 65 million year old fossil they examined was not completely fossilized yet. Armitage states, It can t be but a few thousand years old. 3

5 The Peace River Mammoth Bone Valley Fossil Grave Yard The Giant Ground Sloth Weighing more than six tons and 18 feet tall, the Megatherium was larger than today's African bull elephant. It is the largest sloth kind known to man. The Giant Ground Sloth The sloth s teeth lack enamel. 5
6 The Giant Ground Sloth The Giant Armadillo - Glyptodont The glyptodonts were quite unlike any other animal to roam the planet. Growing to the size of a small car they were covered in an impenetrable armor up to 5cm thick. The Giant Armadillo - Glyptodont The armor is made of thick scales almost 2 inches thick. A scale collected is called a scute. 6
7 The Giant Armadillo - Glyptodont Different Types of Scutes. The Saber-tooth Cats -Smilodon Height: 4-5 feet Weight: 440 pounds Features: Two Large Canine Teeth Diet: Meat Eater The Saber-tooth Cats 7
8 The Giant Beaver The Ice Age Beaver was about the size of a black bear. It was 8.2 feet long. Weighed as much as 440 pounds. Giant Megalodon Sharks Length: 50 Feet Teeth: 188 up to 6.6 in. Jaw: 6 Feet X 7 Feet Largest Sea Predator 8

10 LAST ICE AGE 29! The glaciers were estimated to be as high as 2 miles during the Ice Age in the Great Lakes area. 10
11 ICE AGE CORE DATA Evolutionary Perspective Over 60 glacial advances and retreats have occurred during the last 2 million year. They believe that Ice Ages are cycled regularly at intervals every 100,000 years for the past 800,000 year. The last episode, the Late Wisconsin Glacial Period was the greatest of all covering a 1/3 of the earth and 97% of Canada. It has erased the fossil evidence of the previous ones.. Job 37: The tempest comes out from its chamber, the cold from the driving winds. 10 The breath of God produces ice, and the broad waters become frozen. Job 6:16 when darkened by thawing ice and swollen with melting snow, Job 37:10 The breath of God produces ice, and the broad waters become frozen. Job 38:22 "Have you entered the storehouses of the snow or seen the storehouses of the hail, Job 38:29-30 From whose womb comes the ice? Who gives birth to the frost from the heavens when the waters become hard as stone, when the surface of the deep is frozen? 11
12 ICE AGE s TIME-LINE 700 years of a transition climate for the Ice Age to come and go after Noah s flood. Pre-flood 1500 yrs. Post-flood 2500 yrs. Modern 2000 yrs.+ Time 6000 years plus. 2. How did this happen?????? Over 60 theories It is too complicated to figure out 12
13 2. How Did the Ice Age Begin? 1. Fountains of the Deep all the springs of the great deep burst forth Under the earth caverns exploded! 13
14 2. Flood Gates of the Heavens Water canopy that covers the earth disappears. Volcanoes - Fountains of the Deep Volcanoes contain a great deal of steam (water) when exploding. A tremendous amount of energy is released. Mount St. Helens was equivalent to 430 million tons of TNT or 33,000 atomic bombs in one day. Active Volcanoes There are 1500 active volcanoes in the world, with 8 to12 eruptions occurring at any given moment. 14
15 43 The Ice Age and the Genesis Flood Pinatubo, Philippines Mount Pinatubo erupted catastrophically in June The air did not clear for weeks and weather patterns were affected for five years. Twin Towers Falling Tremendous Amounts of Dust and Debris 45 15
16 46 Cloud Cover Cools the Earth The Ice Age and the Genesis Flood Volcanic dust clouds cools the land, dropping temperatures at least 10 degrees to initiate the Ice Age. Noah s Flood caused the Ice Age Hot Oceans produced by the fountains of deep bursting volcanoes. Gen 7.12 Cold land masses produced by the sun s rays being blocked during the daytime. Hot Oceans and Cold land masses produce wind. 16
17 Conditions for an Ice Age First Condition Cooler Summers Volcanic Activity provides the cooling effect. Volcanic Ash and gases from the flood would take three years to cool the planet. Winter would become longer world wide temperatures drop Second Condition Heavy Snow Water is supplied by the hot oceans through evaporations. Horrific Storms are generated hypercanes -superhurricanes Ocean waters begin to fall 300 feet. 17
18 The Ice Age and the Genesis Flood The number keeps increasing 3. The Migration of Animals and People Tower of Babel Ice Age 18
19 Dispersion of People Bering land bridge Ice Sheet Free Corridor Archeological Remains of an Ice Age Civilization found in South Pacific- over a 100 miles long and 1600 miles high 19
20 Neanderthal in Caves Over one hundred skeletons of the Neanderthal man have been found in the caves of Europe, western Asia, and northern Africa. Their skeletons from the neck down are almost identical to modern man. Neanderthal man had brow ridges, lacked a chin, and the back of his head extended backwards. Man s Civilizations Hunter-gathers 20

22 Ancient Seahenge found in the sea of the Norfolk coast dated 4000 years Cave Paintings Ice Age Extinct Animals Was this at one time a city of great activity or was it always a desert? Total Blocks of Stone: over 2,300,000 Average Weight of Individual Blocks of Stone: 2.5 tons, the large blocks used for the ceiling of the King's Chamber weigh as much as 9 tons. 22
