Wow!
And to think I even lived in Venice (a few miles West of there) for over a month once and didn't know.
What's your guess? Will they finally discover indisputable pre-Clovis relics or will everything end, yet again, around 12-13,000 bc? |

Monte Verde evidence strongly suggests that Clovis culture does not represent the first wave of immigration to the Americas, and I'm hoping that the Little Salt Spring work turns up additional support for this theory. However, there is so far only one artifact - the stake used to kill a tortoise - that dates back far enough to even slightly challenge the Clovis-first theory. There's lots of work to be done. The lead archaeologist and the narrator of the slideshow is my wife's brother. He's worked there for 20 years on a shoestring, and is incredibly excited to finally have some grant money, and a full dive team able to go to the lower levels (using some special blend of nitrogen, oxygen and helium) and some recognition for the importance of the site.
My guess? Yes they'll find some older artifacts. If they do, look out for a National Geographic special on TV. |

| Are you interested, or are you just spamming a rehab center? |
