Oh Boy!!!
In a historic first meeting of two very different worlds, Columbia Plateau tribal leaders met privately Tuesday with scientist Doug Owsley, who led the court battle to study Kennewick Man.
Owsley says study shows that not only wasn't Kennewick Man Indian, he wasn't even from the Columbia Valley, which was inhabited by prehistoric Plateau tribes.
"This is a man from the coast, not a man from here. I think he is a coastal man."
"There is not any clear genetic relationship to Native American peoples," Owsley said. "I do not look at him as Native American ... I can't see any kind of continuity. He is a representative of a very different people."
Not only he s not “Native American” but this Euro looking guy had lived most of his life on the Pacific Coast.
Where did he come from?
