"Wonder why he didn't get professional archeologists involved in the site sooner? Any thoughts?" He didn't want someone to steal 'his' discovery?

He didn't keep it a secret. He just didn't invite scrutiny by people in a professional position to evaluate his claims. Not a good sign.

He didn't want someone to steal 'his' discovery? Hello my friend, I agree. Pyle says "he is a federally certified archaeologist", and that he paid $7K for "DNA and Carbon-14 testing." Kudos to him.

Blam...you didn't ping me. I found this thread on my own. Lucky I'm not the sensitive type...thanks for posting.

I guess so, but I get the impression from the article that the skeleton was discovered decades ago.
Seems like a ridiculously long time, especially in light of the Kenniwick Man fiasco.
We need hard evidence that Europeans (and other non-Native Americans) were here before Columbus or we're going to lose access to these skeletons before we get a chance to study them.
