just to be clear its not the skeleton of the biblical 'Noah"
Spoken like someone who waded in after reading the title but none of the OP where smyleegrl pointed this out
out...
This is fascinating, I wonder what else they have hidden back there?

My guess is the're calling him "Noah," because they have no-ah-dea who he is.

Why are archaeologists looking at human remains anyways? Did you perhaps mean anthropologists?

Pretty messed up! They dig their asses off to find this poor
basturd. Roust him from his grave, send him far away from
his native land, to sit in a closet. Forgotten in some basement
in a world he never knew for eightyfive years. Only to have
some yahoos look him up and give him a label that, will only
get laughs, from the community authorized to speculate about
his remains. What did this guy do to deserve this?
No respect at all.

Well, he had the privilege of remaining intact all this time, and he is serving in the quest for knowledge about ourselves...from the article cited: "Today's scientific techniques, unavailable in Woolley's time, may provide new information about diet, ancestral origins, trauma, stress, and diseases of this poorly understood population," the Penn museum said.
One more thing, archaeologist today are specifically taught ethics and respect for human remains. I deal with them...I treat them well.
