Early Man in America - Valsequillo

[Not rock pile related] Thanks to Norman Muller for this link http://www.valsequilloclassic.net/
which is a website with all the available information about the sites in Mexico where human artifacts are found in soil dated to > 100K years ago. That Europeans visited America before Columbus used to be a controversial idea but, in my opinion, today it is pretty much accepted even by people still pretending it is not true. But the fight about early man in America is just beginning and will be fascinating to watch. Make sure you check the photos (which show stone tools) and the Forums which discuss the ages of soil and aspects of the controvery.

I am rooting for Homo Sapiens having evolved here (not in Asia or Africa) and for the vindication of George Carter. But in the meantime some consensual evidence is beginning to be discussed.
