HARUN YAHYA

On the contrary, archaeological discoveries show that the evo-
lutionist claim that metal was unknown and not used in very ancient
societies is untrue. Proof includes such findings as the remains of a
100,000-year-old metallic vessel, 2.8-billion-year-old metal spheres,
an iron pot estimated to be 300 million years old, fragments of tex-
tiles on clay dated to 27,000 years ago, and traces of metals such as
magnesium and platinum, successfully melted in Europe only a few
hundred years ago, in remains dating back a thousand years. These
scattered remains totally demolish the Rough Stone Age, Polished
Stone Age, Bronze and Iron Age classifications. But a large part of
these findings, after appearing in many scientific publications, have
either been ignored by evolutionist scientists or else hidden away in
museum basements. Fantastical evolutionist tales have been pre-
sented as the history of mankind, instead of the true facts.

Believers Have Led Civilized Lives

Throughout History

Throughout the course of history, God has sent messengers to
call people to the true path. Some people have obeyed these messen-
gers and believed in the existence and oneness of God, while others
have persisted in denial. Ever since humans first came into existence
they have learned faith in the one and only God, and the moral val-
ues of the true religion, by means of our Lord's revelations.
Therefore, the evolutionist claim that earliest societies did not be-
lieve in the One and Only God is untrue. (Greater detail will be pro-
vided on this subject later in this book.)
The Qur'an reveals how, in all periods of history, God has sent
messengers to call people to believe and live by religious moral val-
ues:
