Keep in mind that there weren't any American Indians/Native Americans (As we know them today) here any earlier than 6,000 years ago.
I understand the sensation of handling something that old. I have some 7,000 year old wood. In fact, I have so much that I'm gonna burn some of it this weekend. (It's in my way)

Ping. (These are probably the ancient folks in that area that have the word 'red' in their name. Right now I can't remember and it's time for my nap. Maybe it's 'Red-Paint' people)

I'm not sure I would agree that the presence of a hearth and a stone pit means that there was what we would call a "civilization" present. Anybody know when these things first appeared in the Old World?

If they can link this site to the Vikings, would this be Norwegian wood?

Signs of civilization? A few stone chipped tools? Sheesh, even the Arabs show more signs of civilization (barely, though).

Funny. I have some Chumash artifacts in my collection that date back to almost 8000 years. Perhaps you are incorrect.

I have a rock I found on a northern California beach. It is about 8 inches square.
It caught my eye because it was unlike any other rock on the beach. The beach was comprised of granite eggs. Beach tumbled stones that take on an egg like shape.
I picked up the rock and on one of its faces is the symbol Pi in perfect relief.
It is an absolutly amazing freak of nature, or ?

A choice between a 7000 year old garbage dump or brand new spanking water treatment facility. I'm going out on a limb on this one, but I'd rather have the water treatment facility.
Oh look a rock! No, no, no, that's not a rock that was an implement used in some type of pre-columbian religious ceremony.

Why would Kennedy want a water plant in Mass? If the headline said distillery, I might have read it.

I am a direct descendant of this 7,500 year old tribe and the damn Indians tribes need to give back my land they stole from my ancestors. Especially Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun Casinos.

you are lagging by about 2000 years, maybe more. I believe the early date is about 10,000 years.

I think the term "civilization" is not correct here.

I'm surprised nobody's mentioned the 9-ft. tall human(oid)s dressed in battle armor that were dug up in the mounds in Ohio. Probably just an oversight.
