I was lucky enough to visit this site Friday 7/19 and I'm still astonished. Thanks to the very knowledgeable people working the dig, I learned a lot in addition to seeing first hand enormous bones and a gigantic tooth. About 12,000 years old, right out of Mother Earth and before our very eyes! Amazing!
