The discovery of a carved obsidian spear point, believed to be 11,000 years old, was found last year just west of the Idaho-Montana border in the Beaverhead Mountains.

The LDS genealogical library has ancestory lines back to Adam and Eve. A quick check should tell us the carver's name.

Not joking. I was there the day that info came in and the librarians were laughing themselves silly.

The find included what Archaeologists believe is the world's oldest fondue set, complete with long bone-handled forks. Further analysis is needed to determine whether it was used for cheese or chocolate, said the scientists.

Hmmmm. Interesting.
