Barker's interest in archaeology was piqued after he dropped out of university and got a job on a ginseng farm...

...he took his finds to Gary Warrick, associate professor of indigenous studies at Laurier Brantford...

...Barker searched around and found an archaeologist who knows about fossils: Dan Walker, assistant state archeologist for Wyoming.

 Smells like patchouli in here.

heh

Hope they cn get a good paleontologist in there. ...and heck, just because they were in water doesn’t mean there’s no stratigraphic info to glean...although maybe he’s “cleaned them up” by now.

As every archaeologists in “the know” knows, farms cover up major archaeological sites. I pursued that job strategically. Dr Warrick holds archaeology degrees not indigenous studies degrees, he is a world renown archaeologist working closely with South African authorities and has authored many books and texts regarding the first nations of Ontario.
Dr Walker has one of the largest ice age or pleistocene if you prefer repositories in the world. He is a go to for many researchers. None of us smell like patchouli.
