Considering the definition of "prehistoric" I hardly think this is prehistoric.

Definitions of prehistoric on the Web: belonging to or existing in times before recorded history; "prehistoric settlements"; "prehistoric peoples"

Prehistoric at 1000 years?

Well, perhaps for the North American continent.

Evidence at the site indicates that the skeleton is between 700 and 2,000 years old, most likely dating back about 1,000 years, members of the excavation crew said. The nearly intact skeleton is being donated to the University of Texas for further study.

I don't think that age classifies it as "prehistoric".

With the lake level being down 17 feet I'm sure people will find more stuff.

I just want my fishing pole back.

Molly Ivins and Kinky Friedman are ecstatic to have finally found that fork in their family tree.

Great find!

We used to own some property near Tarpley Texas. We found evidence of a campfire in a similar spot along a creek. It contained a circle of burned stones and burned sticks. It had been under about 20 feet of dirt and was exposed by a heavy rain. No skeletons but we found some fabulous arrowheads.

Cool!

I wasn't in the area until the late 80's / early 90's so I'm in the clear.

Interesting find. Never heard of Leanderthal woman. Learn something new. Probably Indians.
