"Dr. Jenkins, standing in the very spot where his field school team recovered the evidence",

Not sayin' he's not smart and all but typical white people don't stand in the latrine.

[RouxStir]

“human DNA in coprolites”

So, were the humans the eaters or the eaten?

[Soliton]

The last true ice age didn’t end for another 4000 to 5000 years. How did they survive in Oregon?

"Not sayin' he's not smart and all but typical white people don't stand in the latrine."

My cracker grandma's out there standing in the latrine right now.

You got a problem with that?

[Coyoteman]

The last true ice age didn’t end for another 4000 to 5000 years. How did they survive in Oregon?

They are working in eastern Oregon.

Think Great Basin rather than Pacific Northwest.

Sittin’ down on the seat in the outhouse ain’t the same as standin’ in the hole.

The reason I love FR is that the culture is so elevating. Or is that elevatin'?

;-)

14,500 to 14,000 years B.P., the ice-sheet surface sloped from about altitude 1,000 meters at the international boundary to between 0 and 300 meters at the ice terminus on the continental shelf and in the southern Puget lowland.

It would have been like Siberia in the Great Basin

[Brucifer]

“typical white people”

I don’t know what your game is mister, but I know code when I hear it. Er... when I see it typed that is.

The 'Dig" isn't that far from Richland Washington, where the remains of a human were found several years ago (I forget). The analysis later showed that the human was a Caucasian.

The Clovis Man theory was based on the first tools uncovered in North America. A professor of archeology I have seen on the History Channel says the tools trace back to Europe. This tends to lay waste to the idea that Asia was the only gateway used to access this country.

[Eagles6]

Yeah, light up a smoke in the “little house of contemplation’ after the Memorial Day family reunion and you’ll get elevated right over that treeline yonder.

Yet it appears there were folks living there.

I would like to learn more about the mtDNA from that site.

Think Great Basin

Not many people realize that the world's ugliest desert aka Mojave/Great Basin, extends all the way up into British Columbia. As an added bonus, I do believe it gets most of its moisture from snow (but still low enough precipitation to qualify as a desert) - a first amongst the world's deserts.

Nothing is more depressing than leaving the upper Sonora and entering the Mojave as you drive north/westward from southern Arizona towards Calif.

[Eagles6]

Well, now we know, according to “The One” that typical White People are well versed in Scripture, good shots and suspicious of strangers. Not bad things by any means.

"The 'Dig" isn't that far from Richland Washington, where the remains of a human were found several years ago (I forget). The analysis later showed that the human was a Caucasian."

That was probably Kennewick Man and most people believe he may have been an Ainu from Japan. I believe he was probably related to who-ever these people were: Vintage Skulls

"The Clovis Man theory was based on the first tools uncovered in North America. A professor of archeology I have seen on the History Channel says the tools trace back to Europe. This tends to lay waste to the idea that Asia was the only gateway used to access this country."

That was probably Dennis Sanford. See his article below:

Why is that? I've always liked the Mojave.
