We have permission to post an exciting Article in Press concerning recent work on butchered Bison antiquus recovered in a wetland on the Northwest Coast of North America dating to approximately 12,000 BP–nearly 800 C14 years older than the main dates for North American Clovis assemblages.  Bone modifications on peat-bog preserved Bison antiquus provide evidence suggestive of Late Pleistocene large game hunting activities in this possible entrance area into the Americas.
