Bison bones found on Vancouver Island and the Orcas Islands shows
there was a food rich eco-system for Ice Age hunters 14,000 years
ago. An important find is a leg bone from the Orcas Islands that
appear to have been butchered by humans that are Pre-Clovis in date.
The bison bone finds also show that the early immigrants to the New
World would have more than just sea food for subsistence. Vancouver
Island was nearly attached to the mainland during this time due to
lower sea levels and people coming down the coast could have been
island hopping due to the fact that ice did not dominate the entire
terrain.
This also gives a boost to the "coastal migration" theory of early
settlement of the Americas and a boost to the idea that the coastal
migrants arrived 2000 years earlier than the migrants who came down
through the center of Canada since that route was closed.
