[Aztlan] Interesting find in Patagonia

[michael ruggeri]

Listeros,

The bones of a stegomastodon, a prehistoric elephant that lived 13,000  
years ago, were found in 2007 in Patagonia at a site called La Plata.  
Remains of other pre-historic species were then found at the site. The  
concentration of three distinct mammals dying at this one small sector  
suggests there could have been human habitation nearby. If this were  
true, we would have a very early human population for the Americas at  
this place. Funding for further research is now being raised.

However, performing a thorough search of La Plata is a huge operation  
in terms of money and time. The scientists are therefore in the  
process of collecting the necessary funding that will allow them to go  
beyond the stegomastodon discovery, and possibly to make a new  
breakthrough in the history of the human populating process of our  
planet.
