  • Local News First DNA Tests Say Kennewick Man Was Native American
    Winner of Nine Pulitzer Prizes Local News Originally published Saturday, January 17, 2015 at 5:26 PM First DNA tests say Kennewick Man was Native American Nearly two decades after the ancient skeleton called Kennewick Man was discovered on the banks of the Columbia River, the mystery of his origins appears to be nearing resolution. By Sandi Doughton Seattle Times science reporter Nearly two decades after the ancient skeleton called Kennewick Man was discovered on the banks of the Columbia River, the mystery of his origins appears to be nearing resolution. Genetic analysis is still under way in Denmark, but documents obtained through the federal Freedom of Information Act say preliminary results point to a Native-American heritage. The researchers performing the DNA analysis “feel that Kennewick has normal, standard Native- American genetics,” according to a 2013 email to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which is responsible for the care and management of the bones. “At present there is no indication he has a different origin than North American Native American.” If that conclusion holds up, it would be a dramatic end to a debate that polarized the field of anthropology and set off a legal battle between scientists who sought to study the 9,500-year-old skeleton and Northwest tribes that sought to rebury it as an honored ancestor. In response to The Seattle Times’ records request, geochemist Thomas Stafford Jr., who is involved in the DNA analysis, cautioned that the early conclusions could “change to some degree” with more detailed analysis. The results of those studies are expected to be published soon in a peer-reviewed scientific journal.

  • The Kennewick Man Finally Freed to Share His Secrets He’S the Most Important Human Skeleton Ever Found in North America— and Here, for the First Time, Is His Story
    (StudioEIS) The Kennewick Man Finally Freed to Share His Secrets He’s the most important human skeleton ever found in North America— and here, for the first time, is his story By Douglas Preston SMITHSONIAN MAGAZINE, SEPTEMBER 2014 from: http://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/kennewick-man-finally-freed-share-his-secrets-180952462/ In the summer of 1996, two college students in Kennewick, Washington, stumbled on a human skull while wading in the shallows along the Columbia River. They called the police. The police brought in the Benton County coroner, Floyd Johnson, who was puzzled by the skull, and he in turn contacted James Chatters, a local archaeologist. Chatters and the coroner returned to the site and, in the dying light of evening, plucked almost an entire skeleton from the mud and sand. They carried the bones back to Chatters’ lab and spread them out on a table. The skull, while clearly old, did not look Native American. At first glance, Chatters thought it might belong to an early pioneer or trapper. But the teeth were cavity-free (signaling a diet low in sugar and starch) and worn down to the roots—a combination characteristic of prehistoric teeth. Chatters then noted something embedded in the hipbone. It proved to be a stone spearpoint, which seemed to clinch that the remains were prehistoric. He sent a bone sample off for carbon dating. The results: It was more than 9,000 years old. Thus began the saga of Kennewick Man, one of the oldest skeletons ever found in the Americas and an object of deep fascination from the moment it was discovered.

KAKALIOURAS* Abstract. This article considers the repatriation of some the most ancient human skeletal remains from the United States as two sorts of ending: their end as objects of scientific study, and their end as ancient non-American Indian settlers of North America. In the 1990s, some prominent physical anthropologists and archaeologists began replacing ‘Palaeoindian’ with the new category of ‘Palaeoamerican’ to characterize the western hemisphere’s earliest inhabitants. Kennewick Man/the Ancient One, a nearly nine-thousand-year-old skeleton, convinced some anthropologists that contemporary Native American people (descendants of Palaeoindians) were not biologically related to the very first American colonists. The concept of the Palaeoamerican therefore denied Native American people their long-held status as the ori- ginal inhabitants of the Americas. New genetic results, however, have contradicted the cra- niometric interpretations that led to these perceptions, placing the most ancient American skeletons firmly back in the American Indian family tree.

Introduction In July 1996, two young men stumbled upon a skull along the Columbia River near the town of Kennewick in Southern Washington. 1 They called the police, the police called the coroner, and the coroner called Dr. James Chatters, a local archaeologist. 2 Initially, Dr. Chatters believed the skull probably belonged to an early European settler. 3 The skull was accompanied by virtually the entire skeleton. 4 Dr. Chatters noticed something was embedded in the skeleton's pelvis. 5 After X-ray and CT scans, it appeared that the object was a stone projectile spear point, resembling a Cascade Point. 6 Chatters was confused; he could not understand how he could have a white European settler with a stone projectile point of that antiquity embedded in his pelvis. 7 The initial impression of the physical features of the skeleton indicated that this man had possibly been the first Western settler of the area, the stone point, however, indicated that this man was 5000 to 9000 years old. 8 Chatters decided to obtain a *138 radiocarbon date for the skeleton, the best way to determine its age. 9 The radiocarbon date was a complete shock. 10 Kennewick Man, so named because of the location in which his remains were found, was approximately 9500 years old.
