Listeros,
Archaeologists in Oregon have found fossilized human feces that  
appear to be the oldest biological evidence of humans in North  
America. The feces or coprolites in archaeological terms date back to  
12,500 BCE, pre-dating the Clovis people by 1000 years. DNA analysis  
of the coprolites show the folks who lived in a cave in Oregon at  
12,500 BCE are closely related to modern Native Americans and come  
from Eastern Asia. The coprolites were uncovered at Paisley Caves,  
220 miles from Portland.

There is some controversy in the findings since there were traces of  
wolves, coyotes and foxes found in the coprolites as well meaning  
that there could be some question about the actual age of the human  
DNA in the coprolites.
