Once again, the wrong location is given for the artifacts. This is the only one i've seen so far though that's not in China or Vietnam...where is this?
EDIT: It looks like somewhere in Russia except that the distance between North America and Russia has been shrunk.
Potentially. I thought it looks vaguely like it could be in Egypt. Even then that's pushing it. Unless, and I suppose this is more unlikely is that the CW and weird globe are related, but I seriously doubt that.

Viral vs ARG?
So... does anyone think we're missing something in all these complex Weyland pages to get the ball rolling again, or just waiting for the next cog to move in a viral machine..?
The whole thing seems to be in a weird flux, to me. No?

These are just sitting in the swf cache, so they are real images.
Now THIS is sloppy... Then again, I doubt you could really have much security control using Facebook apps and flash, on top of that.

WTF is up with the representation of its location on the globe. Doesn't look like earth. Did I miss something?
I find it very odd that with so much thought and design poured into the website that we are finding so many sloppy "typos".

I have to agree, surely some kind of peer-review should be carried out before go-live (Sorry PMs if your still lurking).
However, there is still no response from the guy who initially posted all 7. Do we even know if they are genuine?
The PMs have been doing a good job of keeping us from what we haven't to see yet (apart from a couple of P45-worthy slip ups).
These additional artefact gifs could be fake/not official, explaining typos etc.
If they are real then I'll be damned if I can work out where they came from unless there is a site we haven't found yet (which I doubt) - though I am at work and so can't investigate as much as I would like to.

Yeah, I have the feeling you are right about this.
Assuming it is a typo, and dealing with it as such, that would still raise questions.
All bar 1 were from BC/BCE times and only 1 was from AD/CE times.
Whether or not it is a typo (which I am now assuming it is) it is still the odd one out. Coincidence?

This may be a stupid question BUT I'll ask none the less.
All but 1 of the artefacts has a time-stamp followed by BCE:
Eg, 1540 BCE
This stands for "Before Common Era", or so I believe.
However one of them (attached again for reference) has a different convention:
680 CW

I'm afraid that might be a typo, seeing as W and E are right next to each other. This would be very sloppy though, so let's hope it has some significance.

I wonder where they got them from...
Someone has asked on the Russian forum. I'll be keeping an eye on the thread to see if he responds.
