Spontaneous Human Combustion - Burnt to a Crisp
Sure, once ignited the body can burn, in particular it's fat, but it's erroneous to describe that as spontaneous combustion. Theres no good reason to think that combustion can occur in the body spontaneously without some source of ignition. Just because you haven't found the source doesn't mean combustion occurred spontaneously.

the worlds first city, advanced 9000 year old society
Civilisation as we know it began with the discovery of agriculture about 9000 years ago.
Where as previously people had lived a nomadic lifestyle and were constantly on the move tracking game and hunting, agriculture caused people to for the first time settle in villages with fields and even irrigation.
Agriculture meant that one man could produce enough food to feed many people, freeing others to specialise is trades such as carpentry. They produced goods and the settlements quickly grew as they attracted trade. The rest, as they say, is history.
I guess this must have been one of the first settlements. The Babylonian tribes are thought to have settled around about the same time around the Euphrates river in what we now call Iraq.
Now I'm off to play Civilisation 4. See you in 12 hours!
