On the east coast around 30 years ago, I met an anthropologist who had come from California. She also spoke about finds about 130,000 years old and how those professionals who believed this were nuts. Just like the nothing before Clovis boys; boy have they gotten a surprise. At any rate that kind of date makes logical sense. I have no information about the forensic sense. The last great cooling started around 120,000 years ago. Thus the suggested age for the finding(s) would fit into the warm period that preceded the more recent long cooling period we have now left to enjoy a few warm millenia.

I decided to see if I could find anything about findings of human remains over 100,000 years old on our west coast. Most of the Google articles were about or in reaction to the 2017 study on Mastadon bones. However I checked out one 2008 article which was about Human Origins, and had 10 references some of which were from more than 30 years ago. Happy searching if you care to.
