(2.) NORTH AMERICAN NEANDERTHALS. (ArchivesOfNeanderthalResearch.blogspot.com)
Publisher's Description
AFTER 50,000 YEARS, NEANDERTHAL RELICS EMERGE FROM 456 FEET OF SEAWATER OFF MONTEREY, CALIFORNIA. On August 25, 2011, about 11:00 a.m. (Pacific Time), while exploring the immense submarine canyons (Figs. 8-10) off Monterey, California, submersible divers from Pacific Shelf Research (PSR), San Diego, made an improbable discovery that has rocked the conventional wisdom on Paleoamericans: to wit, the skull (Fig. 1) and unprecedented artifacts (Figs. 4-7) of a full-blown Neanderthal man. Calculated to be residing on the California coastline circa 50,000 (50K) years Before Present (BP). The startling relics removed from the deep offshore site include a fossilized archery bow (Figs. 5-7). And an artfully crafted flint dagger (Fig. 4), with a curious Venus of Willendorf-like handle. Which PSR has unofficially dubbed the, "Venus of Monterey".
