@joelvanderwerf @msbellows just as an observation: to a lot of PNW archaeologists, myself included, the Manis Mastodon is about as credible as "aliens built the pyramids"
there's definitely a mastodon
there are definitely pyramids
the proposed mechanism seems unlikely

@sarae @msbellows By "mechanism" do you mean the question about the origin of the spear point? ("Others are less certain about the human origin of the point as it is unusually thin and has not been smoothed.") Or the lack of a human encampment in the excavated area? All I know is from the sources I posted, which are a bit fluffy.

@sarae @joelvanderwerf What part do you disagree with?
