Well the discrepancy comes from some of his claims. Correct me if I'm wrong but he is stating that there were fundamental shifts in human behaviour that emerged between 50,000-100,000 years ago. From the article he seems to indicate that this included the wearing of clothes as well as the full emergence of language. I'm just saying that, from the evidence we have today I don't think that assertion can hold up.
