I feel privileged to live in an age where I could watch and learn this information. We don't have to wait on text books to be updated anymore, with all those trappings.

So glad this was recorded. I’m going to the museum tomorrow to see this for myself

Richard Cerutti knew all along. It's great to see the museum and world-renowned scientists acknowledge the importance of this discovery.

Did they consider Sasquatches breaking the bones?

Researchers such as myself have been well aware of a much greater antiquity of humans in the Americas. The flint tools found by many collectors already pointed to this, and the figurative motifs I have recognized also point to a much older era of human habitation. One day mainstream archeologist will wake to figure stones and the almost worldwide common lexicon and topology that proves that artistic peoples lived millions upon millions of years ago and shared a common culture. All those that shunned the discoveries of Virginia Steen-McIntyre should also be ashamed of themselves for hindering knowledge and archeological progress.

i thought she was Leonards mother from big bang theory. We cannot just assume humans only existed 14-15000 years ago. Glad we are living in this time, so many new discoveries.

The Whitesands National Park track sites are giving ages that push the arrival of humans earlier too.

That guy's opening joke is completely worth it 😅

Great work, dear Cerutti Mastodon Scientists. "Science is the pursuit of the truth!" ... and you found the truth!!!

People will say listen to the science, follow the science. Yet as soon as science gets in the way of the cash flow for their books, papers, lectures, and grants that are based on telling a different story they deny and ignore as well as make personal attacks. It is taboo to say these things even if true.

Amazing history-making discovery so well investigated and researched. It's also so great the person who asked how this can now lead to other discoveries and the same deposition level. I wonder now to what degree these scientists can throughout that nearby area be able to access that deposition level as since this was a site of collecting valuable food and tool resources if near by they might have a great chance of finding more, like possibly a settlement site, or nearby cliffs where they could excavate the cave floors. Has anyone heard if they are actively searching near by? Thanks for sharing this great presentation. So many very exciting discoveries happening and a great time to be a paleontologist or archaeologist or many sciences I'm not including... paleo-geology....

at 108:00 talk about verticle bones, look up the bison kill site in canada where they found substantial verticle bone placements, thought to be monuments, offerings. they found 4 unrelated bones on the last day placed together vertically. my thought is they are grave monuments possibly for people killed at the site while hunting.

Does the velocity of the impact on the bones result in different fracture patterns? If a large mammal steps on a bone it would be at low velocity and if a bone is fractured by a stone it would be a high velocity impact; does this result in a different fracture pattern?

We have 250000 years of digging before the history books can be rewritten with any accuracy!

Could it have been a rogue group of Homo Erectus or Denisovans? Possibly a group of specie that we don't know about yet? I absolutely love that things like this exist. The thought of the subject of archaeology is as amazing to me as is the actual science.

This is BIG

The Rocks are so unique. They are no doubt what you say. I would say the funny shaped one would be easy to smash down on another stone without smashing your fingers.

I wonder just how many similar sites have been blown off because those involved simply didn't want to endure the controversy

If you look at the concentration 1 at about the 7 o clock position you can see where someone would be sitting on their knees busting the bones. A small pile of unbroken bones at the persons left knee, the anvil directly in front of them.

I had heard about the possible 60KYA site in LA. But not this one.
