My father was in the Marines. If he was still alive I could ask him about the Marine diet.

Is this suppose to be one of the Clovis people from Alaska?

It’s no use trying to convince the local tribesmen that the remains are totally unrelated to them.

My thought too! Let’s do the DNA on this skull to see how European or Siberian/Indian this 8000 year old dude was. My bet is European, and the local natives will raise a ruckus. Because it dilutes their claim of being the First Americans.

Clovis was first identified in NM, and vanished long before this guy did.

Now that whole area is “sacred” ground.

I spent a few summers stumbling around the west taking landscape photos. I got real sick of being told places were “sacred ground” for no other reason than “they don’t want YOU on it.”

Of course…for $25 it becomes less sacred.

Thanks for the ping.

I didn’t do it. I was in Spain at that time.

Clovis people were not in Alaska-those people were Aleuts, Tlingit and other Athabascans-Clovis people were found in New Mexico-both groups were from someplace in Asia, but probably not the same place...

The “offended Natives” really need to shut up about anything posted when something like this happens-there is the skull of a murder victim-found in the same area as there is a missing person-DUH! Until the skull was dated, it was part of a probable crime scene...

A “marine diet” includes corn and sorghum? You sure can get anything past the FBI, can you?
