Vintage Skulls

"The oldest human remains found in the Americas were recently "discovered" in the storeroom of Mexico's National Museum of Anthropology. Found in central Mexico in 1959, the five skulls were radiocarbon dated by a team of researchers from the United Kingdom and Mexico and found to be 13,000 years old. They pre-date the Clovis culture by a couple thousand years, adding to the growing evidence against the Clovis-first model for the first peopling of the Americas."

"Of additional significance is the shape of the skulls, which are described as long and narrow, very unlike those of modern Native Americans.

The skeleton's perfectly preserved skull belonged to a 26-year-old woman

What, did she have her ID on her?

Absolutely fascinating, blam. If I keep up with these posts, I may eventually understand something about all of this. Between this and Kennewiick man, it seems there was something that went on in human history that we know almost nothing about.

I guess this means that the Indians took the white mans land and the white man took it back.

It has little to do with God or religion. Last Year AT SEAC conference (South Eastern Archeaological Center) Al Goodyear did a presentation of his site on the Savannah River. His presentyation consisted of finds that could date man on the North American continent to as early as 60,000 years ago. I have seen the evidence and some of it is interesting to say the least and several collegues at the conference were convinced. The jury is out and alot of work needs to be done but I believe now that we know what we are looking for and where these people may have been living (coastal communities) we will see more and more evidence popping up.


What I love is the speculation that these caucasians were fishermen living in coastal areas leaving the inland areas of NA untouched and pristine and then the Native American's ancestors arrived caused the extinction of the Mege-Fauna and then drove out the peaceful native caucasians. :)

As soon as scholars PatrickHenry and Junior agree in wankfest over a speculative fossil find that looks like an ABC reporter, they will climb all over this thread. Hell hath no fury like a Darwinist scorned.

An extrapolation of the GPS data for South American data show that South America and Africa were joined between 87,000 and 2,000 years ago, the larger number being a linear extrapolation and the smaller a minimal exponential extrapolation. The extrapolation is based on insufficient data to be adamant about the time required for movement, but the methodology is the same as the extrapolation of the sea-floor spreading data used to arrive at the continental drift number.

I can't vouch for the source - or the detail - but if there's any further scientific info around that verifies this statement, I would love to hear about it.

Looks like 'they' might have WALKED to their destination?
