Skull identified by Fowke as a young woman between 20 and 25 years of age. He reported that the burial was flexed, on her right side with her head towards the east. The "near perfect" condition of the skeleton and the shallow depth of burial would suggest that the burial was made during the Mississippi Period or Historic Period. The photograph shows a prognathic face that is very robust.
I was fascinated as a child of paleoanthropology . I was about 9-10 years old when I tried with much joy and excitement to reconstruct a head of Australopithecus . My parents , especially my mother was not thrilled with my early passion for ancient apes . One day , she absolutely forbade me to reconstruct prehistoric apes . Mother's decision disappointed me but I had no choice. My mother was and is a very religious woman and I think my concern for ancient apes conflicts with religious ideas
