Because even nomads from thousands of years a go leave proof. If they didn't, we'd have a whole age of mankind where we'd have no idea where the hell were the humans at.

So the "argument from silence" is no longer a logical fallacy, is that what you are telling me?

"The argument from silence (also called argumentum a silentio in Latin) is that the silence of a speaker or writer about X proves or suggests that the speaker or writer is either ignorant of X or has a motive to remain silent about X. When used as a logical proof in pure reasoning, the argument is classed among the fallacies, but it may be valid circumstantial evidence in practical reasoning."

Eh? What was that?
