So... if you've ever wondered what it might be like to go on an archaeological dig, there's a bunch of Texans who have made their papers available for perusal.

From their site:


The ITA is your source for open access archaeological reports from projects conducted throughout the State of Texas. The digital reports can be read on this site or downloaded to your computer at no cost. All authors retain, at minimum, a Creative Commons Attribution license to their work, meaning that they, and in some instances the funding agency, must be credited for original creation.

Licensing information can be found on the cover page for each report. All reports are organized by year (Volume No.), and can be accessed using the drop down menu in the right column.

So I entered the term 'mammoth' and found a few papers on the mammoths... and a LOT of papers on the paleoIndians here, who hunted the mammoths.

Perhaps your state has something similar?

Very interesting!

I have relatives in Texas who actually discovered a mammoth on their property and had it professionally excavated. It would be neat if I could find their mammoth in those records.

Texas is a strange place and always will be. So many anomolies in regard to time scale, they were debunked, now only to reside on conspiracy sites such as these. Question is, why the need to disprove such things in such succinct​ fashion?

We are like the Russia of the US continent. The hammer never happened... There are no human footprints coinciding with those of dinosaur's. However, the history remains rich, and if you look for it in person, it whispers it's unbelievable tale in your ear across the eons to the present time.

You will never find it in the computer screen.

Where and when was the discovery? I worked on a mammoth last year!

All my life I would have jumped at the chance to dig
in the earth under someone with the knowledge. Someone who
could just point me in the right direction of Jim Bowies knife
or Santanas sword. Wouldn't matter I'd dig my lily white ass off

This was about 20 years ago!

We'd like to find one. Likeliest spot is in West Texas, near Big Bend where a friend of mine found some T-rex bones (yes, verified and part of our museum collection.)

I have been cleared to work on a dig this summer (volunteer one day a week) - it should be spectacularly hot. We'll start digging about 7:30-8 am and go till noon. It'll be too hot to dig in the afternoon. It's an 80 mile round trip for me, but ... hey, I get to dig in the dirt for dinosaurs!

(I've volunteered at the site for several years. Usually I find dirt. Once I found a small bone and once a piece of turtle shell. But lots and lots of dirt.)

BTW, this dig is paleontology rather than archaeology (Archaeology looks for "The Ark of the Covenant", Paleontology looks for "pale, dead dinosaurs")
