Dang, I bet the Indian tribes are bummed out about this, if they even heard about it. I remember all the fuss about not touching the body of their ancestor because it was sacreligious.

There are about to be a lot of “First American” broken hearts. And then maybe not. It was the pothead, honky college liberals who convinced the Indians that they were here first. LOL! Gotta get me some popcorn.

Indian land claims are generally not based on “being here first” this isn’t gonna change anything in that regard. The United States government didn’t take land from or sign treaties with Kennewick Man, it did take land from and break treaties with Indians.

I guess I’m naive, but I really don’t see why any of this would bother anybody. It’s a really interesting discovery. Let God’s truth shine forth. It’s bound to be much more fascinating than our petty little human narratives.

"North American NW coast"
"Chatham Islands, a remote archipelago 420 miles southeast of New Zealand"
"Ainu people of Japan".
"modern-day Polynesians"
-sounds like 4 corners of the Lost Continent of Mu to me.

I’m glad they can study the bones. I don’t expect any big changes in theory though. The fact that the bones don’t look like modern natives means nothing. Nobody’s ancestors had looks like their modern decendents.

New name for the Redskins: ‘The Washington Kenniwicks’. I mean, it shouldn’t offend the Native Americans.

The ‘Native’ Americans simply stole it from the Kennewick people fair and square.
