Abstract

In view of the potential significance to American archaeology of the discovery of man-made artifacts along with extinct fauna near Valsequillo, Puebla, Mexico, it is considered useful, in addition to the detailed field documentation, to present the evidence of independent observers concerning the in situ associations. Comments by three such independent scientists, R. S. MacNeish, F. A. Petersen, and H. M. Wormington, on the character of the evidence at Valsequillo are quoted.
