Listeros,

National Geographic has a follow up story on the oldest human ever  
found in the Americas dubbed Eve of Naharon near Tulum. The skeleton  
has been dated at 11,600 BCE and it was found with 3 others. Once  
again, chief archaeologist Arturo Gonzalez  stated that the skulls  
hint that these people came from South Asia and not North Asia. The  
other 3 skeletons are between 9000-12,000 BCE.

One problem with radio-carbon dates of organic materials that have  
been in sea water, as these skeletons have been, is that minerals in  
the sea water can alter the dating results. Arturo Gonzalez will  
begin extracting a 4th skeleton known as Chan hol which could be  
older than Eve this month. Publication of the research will be done  
after the 4th skeleton is excavated.

It is hoped they may have some information on how these ancient  
people arrived when they are done with their research.
