Awake! November 2010 has an article in "watching the world" entitled Prehistoric Superglue.
It refers to a discovery in KwaZulu-Natal. The interesting thing is that this discovery refers to human activity that dates back at least 58,000 years (of course the Awake! just says "thousands of years").
The discovery was published originally in discover it's well worth having a read.

The reason for my comment is the Awake! is playing a dangerous game if some member of the Rank and File decides to do a little more research, surely questions are bound to be asked of the 6000 years of human history doctrine.
