Abstract
A human skeleton was found in Ottertail County, Minnesota, 1931, by a road crew, in a cut across an extinct glacial lake. The skeleton lay at a depth of 9 ft. 9 in. below the original surface. The site was redug and confirmed in May and August, 1932, by the author, with geological confirmation that the skeleton was in sediment of late Pleistocene origin. The skull is morphologically of a nature to compel its assignment as an early type of Homo sapiens.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
