Looking at the bracelet, this reminds me of a primitive form of a slave bracelet . I think the ring was probably attached to the bracelet and not a heavy charm. I have dealt in native American jewelry for the past 15 years and it looks very close to me.
Here's a pic for comparison.
native slave bracelet
It does not make sense to have a heavy charm swinging from the bracelet, while walking or moving there is a high probability it would chip the cuff bracelet.
Any thoughts?

Someone had to teach modern humans how to do things.
Humans are not the most intelligent beings in history.
Think about it, what other species destroys so much environment to make things they do not really need? What other species has killed so many other creatures in this world?

Which other species has ever made smart phones or sent a Tesla into space?
None.
We're the smartest. Possibly in the history of the universe. Don't let your hippy ideology cloud that fact.

This bracelet is just another piece of evidence! Thanks for bringing it to light!!
if you play connect the dots with all the megalithic monuments, sunken cities, and neolithic sites, its paints a pretty picture of a worldwide culture from long before our written history.
originally posted by: Luuke123Even if you were to take just the pyramid culture that we have discovered around the globe you can see that.
As for an advanced society... That is pretty obvious too. The sides of the great pyramid measuring 365.25 egyptian cubits at the base, representative of the solar year.

originally posted by: Luuke123Yes, There were advanced cultures. Not just within the global pyramid culture, but in others too. Take Newgrange for example, I can tell you, Newgrange is no tomb as it has been said before.
IMO, you would have to be totally oblivious or ignoring the evidence to think otherwise.
originally posted by: Luuke123Trust me, to some of you the pyramids are just stacked rocks, the neolithic sites in europe are just temples of "uncivilized pagans", but there is much more to this than most of the world knows.

Yeah, humans are the most intelligent species in the history that "Humans wrote". I am sure that if a whale or bird could write, they would have a different opinion.
Would you have believed the writings of a Neanderthal or Devonian that mentioned how dumb we were compared to them?
Humans, other than a few innate genetic traits, are just parrots. Monkey see monkey do.
Book smart and intelligence are not the same thing. Ability to reason and apply things to out of the box situations takes intelligence. To use a toaster is a learned response, we need to see or read how to use it. Someone from a hundred years ago would not be able to figure out how to use a toaster or figure out what it is used for unless someone told them. I know many people who would not know how to pound a nail into wood unless they had a hammer. I could go on and on for hours.
The new generation does not listen to the old generations well, this will cause a regression of society in this age.

I'm not concerned with the meanderings of a whale or a bird in regards to the advancement of society. I don't look down on any animal, but the fact is, we are the dominant sentient species on this world. That is a fact. And there is no evidence any race of being was before us on this planet with greater technology than we have now.
Would you have believed the writings of a Neanderthal or Devonian that mentioned how dumb we were compared to them?
No. Because... That doesn't even make sense. You're talking about things 40k to 60mill years ago, musing about 'us', as in the modern human species....back in their time..? O_o I'm confused.

I disagree.

Right but... you're comparing apples and oranges here. You originally implied 'someone' had to teach humans 'things'. I disagreed. I state that we as a species learned all that we know from ourselves, from our own native abilities to learn, reason and investigate. We are incredibly creative and intuitive. I don't see how or why we would have had the need to be taught anything by someone else.

Ok, yes, on that I agree

Hey, thanks for clearing that up. This is why I love ATS. People aren't afraid to inform people when they know more about something.
Although Id appreciate it if next time I was wrong you were not so agressive about it.
Tell that to the people with Neanderthal DNA.

Neanderthals are still not considered humans.

I've shucked the bucks to 23 and me.
I'm roughly 3% Neanderthal.
That means that one of my many times over great grandparents banged a cave-man. Or woman.

Multiple races, multiple species, lost civilizations, all wiped out time and time again with Earth shattering, extinction level events, and all of our archaeologists trying to put everyone together on a single timeline.
This is what happens when you try and do that. Now, we'll wait for some off the wall theory that doesn't make any sense whatsoever to explain it.
