Chunk of feces?

How long before the Kenowic (sic) folks want to give it a ‘proper’ burial.

But seriously, what a hell of a journey. Takes a lot to get to the top...of the food chain.

***Native Americans have been living, and eating, and defecating, and urinating, and sweating, and just living in that shelter for thousands of years.***

Sounds like George Michael’s house.

Of course they came here by boat. The aborigines traveled to Australia by boat over 40,000 years ago.

Why does everyone still cling to the old assumption that the Americas were without humans until they found a way to get here from Europe?

Even camels originated in North America - yes, they did. :o)

The article is even more interesting when you replace the word ‘coprolite’ with ‘s—t’.

Homo Sapiens has been around for about 150,000 years, and migration had to happen due to things like naturally occurring ice ages.

This has nothing to do with the “first humans.”

I don’t think there is any consensus date for the earliest people in the Americas at this point.

“I don’t think there is any consensus date for the earliest people in the Americas at this point.”

But there is a strong desire that no evidence come along that proves the “Native Americans” were not really the first Americans. The possibility that Kennewick Man might have offered such evidence was not at all welcomed when he we first discovered.

And there’s the evidence and speculation surrounding the Pre-Siberian Aborigines:

Early (Ancient) Hair Sample Raises Questions

"We came out with a dirt clod and inside the dirt clod was a human hair 14 inches long," she said. "It was so old there was no pigment."

While scientists have yet to determine its age, the layer of soil it was in dates back 11,000 to 12,000 years.

Many scientists believe humans first came to this continent 13,000 years ago across a land bridge from Asia and they started the so-called Clovis culture. But Jenkins says they may have been living in these caves 1,000 years earlier, toward the end of the last ice age.

Global Warming ?

But not much to put us on a path to the bottom. And if some in this Country have their way it couldn't happen too soon.

Nothing will change the schoolbook narrative and anyone who challenges the narrative is racist. Don’t know when to stop laughing.
