Trans-Pecos Man Confirmed Seven Thousand Years Ago
Trinity University and the Witte Museum verify a Trans-Pecos Archaic Man population in Texas seven millennia ago. The study on about 20 skeletons near Pecos, led by Jay Wise, reveals heights from short to six feet and one elderly male over forty, suggesting social care within a cave-dweller community.
