<HTML>Well,Don it just so happens that Texas A&M is one of the few universities with a ship equipped for marine archaeology.The site is a sunken hill called Flower Mounds(not to be confused with the town in Denton County north of Dallas)The Gault Site (a 23 acre Clovis site in Bell County,Texas)is confirming suspicions that the direction of migration is far more likely from the south than north.Inscribed stones from the site presented at the Clovis and Beyond Conference in Santa Fe,1999 are the closest thing to written records ever found in North America from the Ice Age.Gault is a joint venture of Texas A&M and the University of Texas.Michael Collins heads the excavation.Dennis Stanford of the Smithsonian is also leaning toward the Atlantic seaboard migration route.Ol' Tom Dillehay of Monte Verde fame got his book learnin' down in Austin too.All this just to point out that we know a thing or two about old relics down here in the sage brush.</HTML>
