Is it true that a few years ago, antropologists found the sceleton of a caucasian in California...?

Question

... which dates back further than any other human sceleton found on the continent.

Answer 1

keniwick man(may be misspelled) named for the river where he was found.  one of a small number of peoples  remains found in western north America dating from about 10k years ago that do not have the identifying characteristics of Indians remains. actually they most closely resemble early Australians & the few remaining native people of hokido the northernmost island of Japan, they have no asian  characteristics. they are apparently the last remnant population of a rapidly spreading people that reached Austrailia about 50k years ago. they could have got to n america following the coast north from Japan up through the aleutian islands & down the coast of n america. at that time the sea level was 300 ft. lower than now so what was their coast line is now under water. they  were wiped out by a combination of whatever killed off most the great beasts (mammoth -long legged bears-big cats etc.) & the onslought of later imigrants that came across the Bering land bridge (known as Indians for a while) Keniwick man has an arrow head in his hip. after years in federal court it was decided his remains could be studied as he was not related to the Indian tribes that wanted to immediately bury him. after study it was found the living people he is most closely related to are the native people living on Hokido.  he is not asian-caucasian or n american Indian

Answer 3

you mean skeleton?

Answer 4

You already have a pretty good description of what I think you are looking for.  However, I would like to add, that I think that he still could have been related to Native Americans of today.  He was the oldest human remains found.  We don't know what kinds of evolutionary changes could've happened between then and now.  There is some evidence that prior to the archaic times (or maybe during), archaeologically speaking, that his features greatly resemble those of Native Americans at that time.  This is because most of Europe and Asia were predominately this type of caucasian.  

If Native Americans did in fact migrate over the Bering land bridge.  Wouldn't it stand to reason that they originally had features that would be much like that of other migrating groups of that time that migrated from the same regions?  We do know that it wasn't until later that people with Mongoloid features would have crossed over and interbred with individuals that were already here.  This would explain, only in part, the mixed features of Native Americans (although not all).  After all, we are talking about thousands of years.  A lot can happen due to the body's adaptive processes.

Answer 5

It was Washington

Answer 6

I have not heard of this, but it sounds quite fascinating.

Much of our pre-history is turning out to be other than what we have always been taught.

I was just reading in a very interesting book, yesterday, about an excavation in Israil where modern human remains and Neanderthal remains were both found.  

However, the modern-style human remains were found at a level several tens of thousands of years BELOW the Neanderthal remains!

The problem is that orthodox science is far more concerned with preserving the "status quo" of scientific knowledge than with exploring and studying exceptions to its hallowed rules.

Therefore, when something of REAL interest that does not fit into the accepted parameters is discovered, it is deliberately mis-interpreted to fit into accepted norms or covered up and suppressed entirely.

A week or so ago, someone asked a question here in Yahoo Answers based on an article about "Egyptian" ruins being found in the Grand Canyon back in 1909.  The article went on to describe the site and tell how the Smithsonian, who was claimed as its discoverers to be their sponsor, denied any knowledge of the ruins or those who found them and later explored them - supposedly as representatives of the Smithsonian.

(As it happened, the description of the ruins sounded far more Oriental than Egyptian, but this, too, would make for a fascinating archaelogical anomaly.)

Today, those areas of the Grand Canyon are blocked off and the general public is forbidden to enter - ostensibly on the grounds that the area is "unsafe".

My boyfriend/fiance has been reading a series of books recently about Celtic explorations and settlement of North America as early as 800BC.  There are ruins of Celtic stone circles in several places in New England, the most notable of which is "Mystery Hill" in New Hampshire.

Our human history is a far cry from what we have been taught that it is.  Unfortunately, only the tiniest fractions of the truth ever manage to peek out through the holes in orthodox censorship like brave little weeds growing up between the cracks in an ancient sidewalk - and even when they do, so few of us ever get to see them.
