The 8,500-Year-Old Skeletons Found In A Texas Cave — And The Ancient DNA Mystery Hidden Inside
To close this account with appropriate perspective: the ancient Texas populations documented at Bering Sinkhole and Buckeye Knoll are not curiosities at the margins of North American prehistory.
They are evidence from a geographically central and chronologically significant period that fills gaps in one of the most important ongoing scientific stories of our time.
The study of ancient North American DNA is, in one sense, the study of origins.
Where did the first Americans come from?
When did they arrive?
How many separate migration events brought people to the New World, and through what routes?
How did the founding populations diversify over thousands of years into the hundreds of culturally distinct nations that European explorers encountered?
