Humans occupied the freezing lands high above the Arctic Circle during the last Ice Age, say Russian archaeologists.

Hmm. Very interesting. Thanks.

As somebody said on another site, let's wait and see how this plays out. There have been wonderful discoveries from the Pliocene before, and they aren't still thought of as wonderful.

Great discovery, but not the first one. There are several more sites in Siberia in the coastall areas around the Artic ocean. But useally they don't get the attention because it is highly impossible that there were normal living conditions far in the artic during the coldest stage of the last ice age.

But it is true.

I know why.
