My Dad went to Colorado State in the late 70s, majoring in wildlife biology. He used to go camping a lot, and made frequent trips to Yellowstone NP. I remember him telling me that a couple of his camping buddies were archaeology students.
Prof. Rich Adams was probably one of them. He is shown in several shots in this video, has done much work in the Dubois area and the Shirley Basin sites. I've led him and his students to numerous sites I've discovered in the Dubois area. He still teaches at UW and CSU.
The algorithm really doesnt like your channel, this is exactly the type of stuff I watch and before rhis video ive never been recommended it! Seems like im in for a binge of your videos
I love this channel. Could you maybe do a video on the paleo Indians of Massachusetts/New England? I live on a paleo site in Berkley, MA and, while there’s a few good videos out there, there aren’t a ton of high quality videos like World Chronicles puts out
it sounds like you are talking about the Shoshonian band known as the sheepeaters who lived on mountain sheep. a hardy people, they were one of the last free native peoples in the lower 48. during the sheepeater war they were eventually defeated by smallpox. these people and thier descendants have my respect.
ty for the video, did not know that horses existed here before european introduction, looks like horses originally evolved on the american continental plates how cool!
You’re welcome. However, I never said that horses were in North America before Europeans in my video. Instead, I was talking about how the Shoshone had horses before Europeans were in their areas in large numbers and before those Europeans began documenting everything extensively in writing. There are many instances of Native Americans like the Plans Indians acquiring horses from Europeans like the Spanish and then using those horses in their regions for about two centuries before their areas were heavily settled by Europeans. However, horses did actually exist in the Americas long before any humans lived in the areas. But they went extinct after the Last Glacial Maximum at around 20,000 years ago along with many other megafauna
