Huge dating discrepancies

The dating of the Capsian culture differs widely between different languages. The French, Spanish, Portuguese, and Dutch pages say 10,000-6,000 BC. The German page says 9,000-3,000 BC. The English page says 8,000-2,700BC.

Kenyan Capsian

The article correctly states that "The Eburran industry which dates between 13,000 and 9,000 BCE in East Africa, was formerly known as the "Kenya Capsian" due to similarities in the stone blade shapes. There is no proven relationship with the Capsian". An even more accurate phrasing could be based on this quote from this paper by Emanuel Thomas Kessy: "There is no proven relationship with the Capsian.The term kenyan Aurignacian was later replaced by Kenya Capsian and was recently renamed Eburra after Mount Eburru located at the center of its distribution (Ambrose et al. 1980 "The Taxonomic Status of the Kenya Capsian)".

Great find. Will probably add to article, or you can add it if you like. However, just find more sources so it can be better supported. 67.180.241.40 (talk) 09:21, 10 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Original research

There's no mention of the Capsian culture in the Fregel paper, which is a pre-print. In the supplementary section, it mentions IAM as being linked to two cultures 1. the Bell Beaker culture and 2. the Cardial culture. Again, there is ZERO mention of the Capsian culture in the paper, and the paper mentions two cultures being related to IAM, but never mentions the Capsian culture. Below are quotes from the paper:

"The archaeological excavations in the cave of Ifri n'Amr o'Moussa started in 2006, leading to the discovery of habitats, burials and archaeological artifacts, belonging to two prehistoric civilizations:

- Chalcolithic or Copper Age (2,400 to 1,800 years BCE), represented by the Bell-Beaker culture, which spread throughout western and central Europe.

- Ancient Neolithic (5,400 to 4,800 years BCE), probably corresponding to the Cardial civilization that flourished throughout the Mediterranean."

"The Ifri n’Amr o’Moussa cave also delivered an Early Neolithic/Epipaleolithic sequence. Although not fully studied yet, this older sequence includes Neolithic layers marked by ash and charcoal deposits. These layers contain ceramics similar to Cardial pottery,"Fraenir (talk) 14:38, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
