That must be why the individuals you cite are employed at the Smithsonian (major government institution) and featured on the Discovery Channel (major media institution). You don't have a "side" any more than creationists do.

This is the most accurate statement you've ever made on the forum, worthy of being my new signature quote.

Kennewick Man isn't in the possession of any Indian tribe; the remains are held by the U.S. government at the Burke Museum.

I guess you think you can ignore evidence by calling it "argument." Even if it was "argument," and not "science," whatever purpose that rhetorical distinction is even supposed to serve, you have no counter-argument.

Since the bones aren't related to the red niggers of the last 10k years, they decide to draw the baseless conclusion they are related to some earlier asian populations.
How is that a "baseless conclusion"? It was a conclusion based on morphological and genetic analyses that you have not refuted and cannot refute.

Kennewick Man is peripheral to both modern-day Polynesians, and to some extent, modern-day Native Americans. However, the genetic relationship to Western Europeans is far more distant.

Is this a joke? How does calling evidence "a bunch of bullshit" constitute a refutation of that evidence? Have you personally studied the cranial nonmetric and dental data in question? Of course not.

Nobody claimed that Kennewick Man definitely came from Polynesia or a Polynesian population.
