Excellent, excellent decision.

Skeletal Remains May Be 11,000 Years Old (Lake Jackson, Texas)

I wonder if we'll be able to dig up Buhl Woman again.

[nopardons]

Finally! Now, at last, we'll learn more about Kennewick Man! :-)

[ruoflaw]

wonderful news!

[dennisw]

Hopefully this is the last word and phony baloney Indian claims have been smacked down for good.

[claptrap]

How do these dates of 12000 years and 9000 years get arrived at?
Carbon dating is a fraud as is alot of purported "scientific facts".
Plus alot of unexplained skeletal remains are never studied
or brought to attention because they dont fit with the
"party line" of modern archeologists.

" Babbitt ruled the remains found on federal property should be given to the tribes"...

whose casinos are a flush source of political contributions and other graft.

We may have been able to learn even more if the Corps of Engineer's hadn't bulldozed 20 tons of rock on the spot where he was found.

They did this so fast that no one had time to protest or even knew that it was going to happen.

"Plus alot of unexplained skeletal remains are never studied or brought to attention because they dont fit with the "party line" of modern archeologists."

Yup. Only a few people know about those...and, those of us who know, have been instructed not to tell you. There are weekly meeting in the dead of night devising ways to keep this all secret. Now, don't expect to hear anymore about this... I may be in trouble with 'the committee' already.

Goes to show that creationists and multiculturalists make not-so strange bedfellows

[xJones]

Limited studies concluded the remains more closely resemble modern-day people in Polynesia or the Ainu of Japan than they do Native Americans. Experts say they also resemble those of other ancient bones found elsewhere in the Americas far from the Columbia River Basin and, some believe, a set of 25,000-year-old bones in China.

This is interesting, Blam. If these limited studies pan out, those old ones really got around.

Shows what you don't know. If you ever want to see a world-class fight, try sticking a creationist in bed with multiculturalists.

[Myrddin]

It's good to see honest scientific research can proceed without being impeded by groups trying to hold on to political power. It's fine to return remains that are actually "native american" to the appropriate tribes. It is immoral for those tribes to try to ban legitimate inquiry that might expose other, older inhabitants that would "dethrone" the claims of "native americans".

It is also annoying that any land in the United States could be designated "federal land". The Constitution puts specific limits on what the federal government can use. The politicians are using the Constitution as toilet paper when they grab land and designate it "federal". It is even more egregious when the federal government cedes control of U.S. land to foreign powers such as the United Nations.

Actually, it shows how little you know, or are able to discern. The attempt to squelch science-specifically, the study of human origins-in the name of Native superstions is no different than the continuing efforts of creationists to do the same in the name of their own personal myths. This should be evident to any reasonable person.

Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from this ping list.

[pabianice]

After all, Kennewick Man was found with a Democratic Party membership card in his bag...

In addition to having no sense of humor, you're so....pompous. If there is a hell, bores will surely be on the lowest ring.

BTW, watch out, the Unitarians may claim you. And worse yet, two of your words bombed on spell-check.;)

[nopardons]

Yes, I remember that; it was an utter disgrace!
