We give an overview of the current issues in early universe cosmology andconsider the potential resolution of these issues in an as yet nascent spinfoam cosmology. The model is the Barrett-Crane Model for quantum gravity alongwith a generalization of manifold complexes to complexes including conicalsingularities.
