Okay, So... Anyone know any Mongolian myths that could be relevant here?

I think this might predate the mongols.

Y'know, i'm starting to think that Jones might have been around already when fish started to get on land to take their first breath. >_>
(Or if you want to get more biblical, she could very well be Eve.)
That'd explain all of the mothering then, I suppose.

Not really. Eve was a terrible mother wasn't she? One of her sons was a whiny jerk who killed the other son over something really minor.
So she had a third one. That burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp! But the fourth one... stayed up!

Well, what do you expect? The woman invented motherhood. Cain and Abel were still being beta tested.

The Gobi Desert is a give away. Jones is a jinn.
Marco Polo describes them as haunting the Gobi Desert.
It explains a lot.
Djinni are spirits of air, as I recall. Doesn't seem a likely identity for someone who sank into a mattress up to her knees and was able to dig through a concrete wall.

In my posts, smilies generally correspond to my expression at the time. As an example, means "huh?" and "Hmm..". Also, "Landis" is fine.

Yeah, it's humans who embody Earth - Djinni are either Air or Fire depending on who you ask.

Baiyan, God of Joy, by GryffonDurime, while the C.U.T.E Scardycat and Dreamer are by Tomb Raven.
Also of note: She looks like she always did, even when everyone back then had this protruded forehead and hunched over thing going on, hm?
Interesting indeed. The implications are quite staggering, in fact.
Actually, the Cro-Magnon were much like modern humans and quite gracile. While, perhaps, prominent supra-orbital ridges were more common, it's unlikely that Jones' appearance would have caused them to ask too many questions.
Sorry, anthropology/archaeology student. =P

You know: I find myself wondering about what Jones's CV would look like. I mean, I'm sure 'topless buffalo wrestling' isn't the oddest thing on there by far.

Prediction: The next panel is going to start with the words "Many Millenia from now", and is going to feature Jones battling a 400 foot Boxbot with death ray eyes.
The Tomblurb is going to read "Click here to learn about Terrible"

CV is just a European term for a Resume, I believe.

Unless she was pre-dates apes, I don't think we can flash back much farther.

Maybe Time is a donut and we'll go so far back that we'll end up in the future and that will be Terrible?
