Probably will vote Democrat. Because you know it's Bush's fault. It's his environmental policies that are to blame for early man's downfall.

Said skeleton was found to be in possession of a forged SSN card, a California Driver's License signed by Gill Cedillo, $185 in Food Stamps and another $300 in WIC checks.

It also had a ER card from Northridge Hospital, Sherman Way campus.

Archaeologists were amazed, since they knew that Northridge Hospital, Sherman Way Campus has been closed for some time now.

GGG Ping.

"Meanwhile, John Johnson of the University of California, Santa Barbara, said an elaborate restudy of a woman's femur found on Santa Rosa Island in California's Channel Islands established a calendar-year age of 13,200 to 13,500 years. It had been calculated at about 1,000 years less when found in 1959."

We covered this a couple years ago, see below:

"But she told the conference that she would soon publish a paper establishing that humans occupied a site near Puebla east of Mexico City 21,000 to 28,000 years ago."

Excellent news.

If confirmed, ``that would be the oldest'' radio carbon date in the Americas obtained from a human bone, said archaeology textbook author Stuart Fiedel.

Not as old as this!

Good information! Thanks! Archaeology is really getting exciting now!

This is what keeps us going in spite of the ruined knees and aching lower backs (occupational hazards for archaeologists who actually get out into the field).

Cave diving, though. That takes real courage. Regular caves are dangerous, and diving is dangerous. Combining the two is a slow form of suicide. Stetsons off to those guys!

Most coastal settlements by early Americans now lie deep beneath the sea, which during the Ice Age was hundreds of feet lower than now.

Poor chap . . . killed by SUVs.

Scripture tells us that mountains rose and valleys dropped during Noah's flood. I suspect that because of the "violence that filled the earth" God desired to hide or destroy most of the prevaling "culture". Thus I'm not too surprised that we find settlements under the sea.

I question the dating though. I bet the bones are no older than 7000 years. And the difference in the carbon ratios has another explanation such as the modern level of carbon is not an adequate assumption for 7000 years ago, and/or contamination or leaching.

Ice Age glaciers melted and sea level rose by about 400 feet worldwide.

And we're worried about a few inches in the next century?

Divers making dangerous probes through underwater caves near the Caribbean coast have discovered what appears to be one of oldest human skeletons in the Americas, archaeologists announced at a seminar that was ending on Friday.

The oldest wetback?
