At depths of 5m, workers found huge bones, but said nothing and took them home.

Took them home for what?

When the DNA analysis came back, Stenger was in for a shock. The hair did not belong to a native American.

Marlo Brandon is going to be pissed.

Scientists assumed they were descendants of native Americans who now claim ownership of ancient human remains.

Now that would be a neat trick! Presumably they meant "ancestors", rather than "descendants". Anyway, the DNA analysis is the important news.

I'm with you! I read the entire article, and they refused to say who the hair belongs to. Now, if this hiding of the information follows form, then the hair belongs to, what we would now term as, a white person. (Perhaps Asian).

It would be almost comical if it were not so frustrating. Here is an article, devoted to the topic of how the way we have looked at colonization of the North American continent is going to change drastically; yet, they will not give us the key piece of information about how it has changed. P.C. rules.

"The hair did not belong to a native American. Baker, who carried out the analysis, says: "It's possible that the so-called paleoindians are not the ancestors of native Americans."

Quite possible. Even the Bible alludes to the fact that man walked the Earth long before Adam.

I was interested in this, so I typed a few keywords into google -- ("Mammoth Park" paleo DNA "land bridge") -- and this is what came up.

This is a cached article, and pertains directly to the article vanrox posted.

Maybe we can do our own sleuthing and figure out who the hair belongs to!

I am sure the "Native" Americans would be shocked to learn they "stole" the country from somebody else before the white man came and stole it from them. That would just shoot their history of "we were here first" just all to hell, now wouldn't it?

There's a 50% chance that it belonged to an Elvisaurus. and a 50$ chance it belonged to an ancient Saudi Arabian terrorist who was crushed inside a cave many moons ago.

Stealing 10,000 years ago was more acceptable than stealing 100-200 years ago which is when the american indians were robbed. And the proof of stealing from 10k years ago is not there yet and may never be there.
