Kennewick Man

Hi folks,
Sorry if this has already been done to death elsewhere on this forum but I've just seen a documentary over here in the UK about Kennewick Man a skelton found near the Columbo River and carbon dated to be around 9000 years old.

The Indians are revolting* and the whole thing seems to be tied up in legal cases ... anyone got any news? as I think this docu' is a few years old.

Chris.


*Sorry :D

Yeah, he was discovered near Kennewick, Washington on the mighty Columbia river. The reconstructions of Kennewick man look like Patrick Stewart, aka Captain Picard. i.e. he had very caucasian features.

obviously an alien. 9000 years ago? he's just one of the colonizing aliens that were stranded here and bred out the neanderthals. right?
