Subject: [Texascavers] the skeleton in water-filled pit in Mexico


The on-line supplementary material for the article in Science on Naia, the young girl whose skeleton was found in Hoyo Negro, a pit in the Aktun Hu part of Sac Actun, Quintana Roo, is freely available at

http://www.sciencemag.org/content/suppl/2014/05/14/344.6185.750.DC1/Chatters.SM.pdf

The actual article is not freely available, but the supplementary material contains everything that was in the article and a lot more. It is 55 pages in all, including figures and tables. Much of it is gory "methods" details about age dating and DNA analysis, but the first five pages are a good overview of the pit, and a couple of the figures are maps.

Articles on Hoyo Negro appear in AMCS Activities Newsletters 33, 34, and 35. The large bones in the front cover photo on number 34 are from a gomphothere, an elephant-like extinct American animal. -- Mixon
