Back about 5 or 6 years ago, I recall a story going about some "native" bones found in North America. These bones were VERY old, predating any known habitation of this hemisphere. They had, according to experts, NO physical characteristics that would suggest what is now thought of as native amerind, or mongolian oriental (which is what native amerinds are descended from). These bones were of a race that were hitherto unknown, but thought most similar to european, due to brow-ridge and jaw characteristics. This created quite a big stir among archaeologists. The Clinton administration, under pressure from native american groups, ordered the bones reburied and made the site off limits. Native americans claimed it was desecrating their ancestors graves, when most evidence indicates they were not ancestors of amerinds at all. Significantly, one of the skeletons was found dead from a spear wound, the head of which was still embedded, into the ribcage.

I will do some looking around, and see if I can come up with more info on it.. just relating that which I can remember of it.
