Well, I suppose they don't know yet for sure, but time will tell. God forbid anyone actually research the thing, and find out it was older than the prescribed age of the world, according the fundies. Then all funding would be removed by the Feds, and the current modern day knuckle draggers will howl and wail and howl about 'science', 'creation',etc. and how it's an impossibility that anything could be that old.
My personal opinion, given the cranium size, is that it is likely a distant relative of Rory's, or Aix's. Not quite capable of higher reasoning skills, but with some abitlities to work with crude tools, and fashion a language, of sorts. smile
The only question the remaining, did it walk upright? smile
Whoops, another question remains, does Rory walk upright?

Speaking of knuckle draggers not wanting to know the truth. Your own precious democrats are the ones who stopped the study of the kenniwick man. Bush tried to reopen the case so scientist could study the remains. I guess closed mindedness goes both ways huh?

God forbid it might turn out that The so Called natives were not the first ones here. That would take the money right out of the Democrats pockets.

Science is just as political as everything else these days.
