Thanks! That is some great material and the first new analysis I've seen of the Vero Beach Mastodon in a year.

E.H Sellards found a piece of mammoth tusk with a human figure engraved on it at the Vero Man site in 1915 or thereabout.Ales Hrdlicka, the famous Smithsonian anthropologist determined the human bones were an intrusive burial, contrary to Sellards and other's evaluations that the bones were washed into place, and in the same stratigraphic levels as extinct megafauna remains. Recent Rare Earth analysis by Dr.Barbara Purdy has confirmed the Vero Man remains to be of pleistocene age.I spoke with James Kennedy personally(the guy who found the engraving) and he says he found it close to but not at the same site.
