The Page Museum at the La Brea Tar Pits
Go City Kids dot com
An exhibit to send chills down the spine shows the only human remains ever excavated from the pits. The 9000-year-old skeleton is the apparent victim of MURDER - a Chumash Indian-like woman, with her head bashed in.

Or maybe she was the aggressor and the other person killed her in self-defense.

...La Brea Woman is the oldest known Californian.

I thought that was Nazi Pelosi.

It's unnerving too that the museum—no matter how you try to block the fact—is an homage to an oil reserve where millions of creatures died. It has an almost childlike respect for petroleum and petroleum byproducts, a wide-eyed appreciation entirely appropriate for an institution that commemorates tar and was built above what can only be described as a mass grave.

And this writer is critical of the creationist's agenda??? Gaia is the goddess of earth science??

Put Joe Leaphorn and Jim Chee on the case.

" ...La Brea Woman is the oldest known Californian."

Not true. Arlington Springs Woman is the oldest Californian and also the oldest skeleton yet found in the Americas:

'Arlington Springs Woman', 13,000 Years Old Human Skeleton, California Island

Luzia (above) is the second oldest American (Brazil)

Awww, PC! Removed the display because it would "attract attention to her remains." Of course it would, the bloody fool had her "mounted".
