If yinz haven't finalized your summer vacation travel plans, Bedford Pennsylvania is a nice place to visit for a weekend or daytrip. Additional links to area attractions may also be found at Bedford and the Internet.

Yeah, we went to Bedford once on vay-kay many years ago. Had a blast.
Ping for y'all.
Bumping to check thread later. This one should be interesting.
In other words, some poor caveman died wondering where he left his cordless Dewalt drill.
Spent many a summer near Bedford. Pretty place.
Any that go be sure to visit the Flgt 93 Memorial in Shanksville...30 miles or so away.
BTW, how many jobs were lost?

No mention of the earlier finds in the Pittsburgh area (south) of early civilization(s) - also about 15,000 years old. The ealier site is an 'outcropping' or something like that. Thought 'unz would like to know about that one too. There was also something found in the McKees Rocks area, if memory serves.
I have a friend with a farm up there...he has invited me up for deer season...I hope I can find time to go this year.

My brother is a pastor in Bedford PA, and they love this very family-oriented community. He & his family have been there for a year, renovating the old (ca.1865) house in which they live. I might add that he and his congregation's other pastor are both dedicated conservatives. We attended my brother's installation at his Bedford congregation last summer, followed by a large reception at the lovely home of a family from his church. At this event, we met and mingled with a number of Bedford residents, and we were very impressed with how friendly, welcoming, and hospitable they were to us. Our kids also really enjoyed Old Bedford Village.
This not possible...fundimentalists say Earth is 4,000 years old...so when did Dinasours fit into 4,000 and humans?
Cool article, Willie!
Thanks for sharing it!
""It is our conviction that the graves represent an ancient and exceedingly primitive culture, totally diffferent from that of the later Algonquin tribes" (Moorehead 1913)."
That 8000 year old discovery in a 4000 year old planet should be good for a couple of government grants...gotta get it in the paper though, you know.
"Did you know that a seafaring American tribe explored the shores of North America 7000 years ago? Or that these ancient Americans rivaled their European counterparts in navigational skills several millennia before the Vikings?"
"THE MYSTERY OF THE LOST RED PAINT PEOPLE follows U.S., Canadian, and European scientists from the barrens of Labrador - where archaeologists uncover an ancient stone burial mound - to sites in the U.S., France, England, and Denmark, and to the vast fjords of northernmost Norway where monumental standing stones testify to links among seafaring cultures across immense distances."
Trove of ancient artifacts in way of Blair road project

Pittsburgh Post-GazetteThey date back more than 10,000 years. Small pieces of stone -- the largest just over 2 inches long -- that could help explain a whole culture.
So far, 2,001 artifacts have been found at a construction site on the edge of Blair County, near the Bedford County line, just off Interstate 99. The people who roamed Central Pennsylvania around 8000 B.C. shaped these stones for use as blades to cut meat, perhaps; or for scrapers, possibly used to separate the fur from the hide on wild game they ate.
