We dug Clovis points around Katy, Texas from old settlements. The discovery stopped construction of a major new freeway for months.
WOW! I lived there in Katy and played in the muddy ditches....
That's why when I find human remains at a job site. I kick em into a ditch and cover em with cement.
Cypress Creek at the new 99

My mother, was writing a series of historical novels, before she died. She had me do her research on both Native Americans and Paleo-Indians. This went along with my own studies of Anthroplogy and Archaeology. I found a wealth of research info, including on the Clovis discovery in TX.
I was not aware so much new info was found at the site. Thank you for sharing this. I live in OK and this site is now on my bucket list.
My mother has been gone 5 years now, and I am working on getting her books finished and published. I did not realize she had done 17. She would have loved to make the TX trip with me.
Come on still have time get those book published 😊
Instead of saying OK. you might want to say Oklahoma for those who don't know the abbreviation. Just my 2 cents.
I'd be interested in reading these books.
@@Istandby666Boomer Sooner!
Hi there, can u name a book she did I’d like to give it a read
Sorry to hear about your condition Kayleigh 😢. I have just been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia so I know how it feels to go from being healthy and fit to suddenly not you at all. Hope you find a way to manage your symptoms pretty well and keep making informative and educational videos. They are very much appreciated 👍👍
Stop using any artificial sweeteners. No diet drinks. Then, start an iodine supplement. You can get drops. Add two or three drops to a bottle of water. This worked for a friend of mine.
alcohol is a big trigger for flare ups
@@TexanUSMC8089 "This worked for a friend of mine."
If your friend wasn't a medical researcher then no one cares. Any witch doctor can concoct a potion and do a ritual, whether that potion does anything is the question.
Were you vaccinated? I’ve seen many reports that found evidence that vaccinated people were statistically more prone to autoimmune diseases than unvaccinated individuals.
@@johnsmithe4656 Pissed it wasn't brought to her by Pfizer? Geez
There are big chunks of this country that are relatively unexplored, mostly in the less populated areas of the West. I always wonder what is there that we haven't found yet. I've explored a bunch of petroglyph sites in the southwest and there have to be some real hidden historical gems we haven't found yet.
I believe even the State of New York still has areas of primeval forest.
I grew up soo....
I had heard of under water sites 150 feet down. Maybe a new chapter.
@@goodeye6373 I agree, most early site will have been flooded. There's lots of interesting stuff coming up around the black sea. Sort of proves we like to live on the coast then and now, but their coast was a lot lower!
You should check out "the trek planner". Interesting what he is doing. He goes out and checks out strange things that turnout to be structures.
Thank you, Kayleigh. I have only recently learned of the Gault site, even though I live quite close to it, in Austin about 50 miles (80 km) from it. My daughter, who has an archeology degree from Texas State University in San Marcos, said that people in her department often volunteered there, so of course it was known in those circles. But maybe your publicity of the site will lead to more support from the public. Good job.
Kayleigh, hang in there. We need you. Especially with all the exciting discoveries in recent times.
Here in the Americas, I feel that we are on the verge of a whole different view of our history here. With the discoveries in Texas and White Sands, New Mexico, things are getting very interesting.
Agree I have no training or formal education on the subject but I always thought the time line for settlement of North America to be a bit dodgy
I'm Australian. I was taught the Americas weren't settled by modern Humans until about the Younger Dryas, 13-15 thousand years ago, when there was a land bridge across what is now the Barents Sea. It appears that this, and other discoveries are clearly messing up that timeline.
@@tsubadaikhan6332 I was taught the same thing. However, I discovered that I was taught incorrectly.
The generally accepted fact is that humans were living in White Sands, New Mexico, USA 22,000 years ago during the last glacial maximum. At that time, White Sands was a lake not a dessert.
Human footprints were found with seeds above and below the footprints thus bounding them to no earlier than 23,000 years ago and no later than 21,000 years ago.
There was no land path for their ancestors to walk from Beringia. The only realistic way for their ancestors to get to the Americas was by boat.
Edit note: I incorrectly had 22,000 instead of the correct 21,000.
Hi Kayleigh! I'm from Texas and have been to the Gualt Site! Myself and a small group of friends volunteered there. It's a beautiful place. When I was standing in the sort of shallow valley where the then current dig was situated, I didn't wonder why the site was occupied for so long. It is so lush. Deep soil (a rarity for Central Texas), seasonal water ways. Edible plants EVERYWHERE. Dr. Collins is a professor at my alma mater and I actually met him at a luncheon with the Department of Agriculture at Texas State University. I'm so pleased that you have made so many people aware of this place. In my undergraduate training in Anthropology at Texas State, I was taught both "Clovis first" and the Bering Land Bridge Hypothesis. I'm a little bitter about that and am so pleased that the dogma is starting to fall away with new critical thinkers. Thank you so much for what you do. ❤
Well that's how the landscape looks now, but it may have been vastly different 20 thousand years ago. However, these ancient people were attracted to the area for some reason.
@@ironcladranchandforge7292 I've read that the site is on the escarpment where a lot of springs are located. It's also the site of a huge deposit of high-quality flint. Anybody making flint tools (arrowheads, clovis points, etc.) in the last 20,000 years would find the best material to work with there.
Entrenched academia is slowly and hopefuly becoming less of a driver: remember when a Scotsman concluded the Franklin expediition practised cannabalism and the British elites were having NONE of that. AND it was a Scotsman, so OBVIOUSLY no credibility. They don't call it the "Ivory tower" for no reason. I've never bought the timeline in N. America: it's too too short.
Kayleigh, I learn more from you in a 12 minute video, than I ever learned in an out of the book hour long college History Class. Thank you for that and be well.
when I was about 10 years old, I discovered a few arrow heads, and a stone axe, brought up by a rotertiller, in Burlington, NC. I thought they were everywhere, moved them to a tree side, and moved on with my life. lol. funny enough, these might be the only ones I found in my life.
Living near the lakes of High Rock and Badin on the Yadkiin river, when the lakes were low, I would find arrowheads all the time, from the local native American tribes, we assumed back then.
I used to live in a very rural area in Dixon Kentucky. Any time the farmers tilled the land, I would go walking in them and would find many arrowheads and even a few broken tools. While I don’t remember the address, it had a very creepy old family cemetery in the middle of the field and all the trees had no bark. It wasn’t too far from the local church back then (late 1980’s).
Like you, I would collect them. Not sure what happened to them, but sure do wish I still had them. There was some interesting finds there.
I’m reading David Meltzer’s book “First Peoples in a New World” at the moment, and he writes that the Gault site has pre-clovis assemblages with carbon dates ranging from 16,700-21,700. There is another site near there, Debra L Friedkin, with comparable strata and artifacts, but which is only dated to 13,500-15,500.
Kaleigh I'm sorry to hear of you AS diagnosis. I have had AS for 20 years, so maybe I can share useful information with you for once. We are lucky to have the biologic meds (Enbril, Humera, etc) available. I have been on one and while I have more back pain than other old guys I haven't suffered the damage that the prior generation of AS sufferers did. I hope you find something that works for you. Keep hope, keep exercising, and keep up the good work!
Sorry to hear that you’ve been diagnosed with that illness. I’ve been dealing with fibromyalgia for over 10 years! Besides keeping moving, I’ve changed my diet some according to recommendations and I’ve also found acupuncture to help! I wish you well! Thank you for your informative videos, I look forward to them❤️
When I was a young boy, around 1960, my parents and grandmother took me to a farm owned by a friend of hers in Illinois. For several decades, after plowing his field he would walk it and pick up artifacts that he had churned up. I saw 8-10 dresser drawers full of arrow heads of all sizes, spear heads, axe heads, needles and other decorative items. There were other display cases holding some of the finest pieces. All from the 200 acres or so that he farmed. I hope his collection ended up at a university or museum.
If it was in southern Illinois, a good number of those would date to sometime in the 1600-1800 range. That was the time period of extensive migration. There was also the large settlement near St Louis, Missouri that could account for it.
My ancestors moved through that region after the French & Indian War as well as dozens of other tribes.
Hang in there Kayleigh - a diagnosis is an early step in the treatment process. When my daughter was 2 years old she was diagnosed with ASMD and we faced what you’re going through now. Very little was known about her condition and there was no treatment and no cure. Forty years later and she’s now receiving enzyme replacement therapy that potentially reverses symptoms and mitigates a significant amount of damage done to her body by the disease. You see - hope is the anchor of the soul and promotes a healthy outlook. I don’t typically like to give unsolicited advice but will say this - look into your condition and find an organization supporting research into treatments and potential cures. We’ve met many wonderful people over the years affected by ASMD either as patients or family of and some really great research scientists and doctors who’ve poured their lives into finding a cure for this deadly disease.
I really enjoy your videos and am intrigued by their content. I’m not too far from the Gault site and since I’m twice retired will look into going out there to explore a part of Texas I was mostly unaware of. Thanks for the great videos!
Kayleigh, I sincerely wish you the best in dealing with your medical condition, and I truly believe that you will do what is necessary to keep symptoms minimized as much as possible.
I have followed developments at the Gault site for a number of years. As a matter of fact, I seem to remember that a significant number of archeologists were skeptical of Dr. Collins'
work initially because he was finding evidence that seemed to predate Clovis.
As you are discovering, Dr. Collins deserves high respect both as an archeologist and as a human being.
I've been to the Gault site. Chert everywhere. One of the anthropologists I was with walked a few feet down the dry creek bed, bent down and picked up a projectile point that had been discarded before completion. Took a few steps and picked up two more. Evidence of habitation is everywhere--and that was just on the surface.
Good to see you back, Kayleigh, with an informative video.
I'm sorry to hear about your affliction, but there's hope that the attention currently being paid to inflammation and the immune system that more effective treatments will be developed.
Sorry to here you been sick Kayleigh
You definitely can get into remission hopefully indefinitely
Fantastic you exercising so much
Have a look at treatments for il17.
Curcumin will definitely help. To a less extent vitamin d3
Infrared heating pads will help lots. There is research showing that this may help mitochondria as well
Really enjoy your show
Cheers
Allan
Sending you lots of love Kayleigh. I too am a young (28) gal with chronic illness. My best advice is to take things day by day. You’ll have good and some very bad, difficult days. Just remind yourself in the moment when things are bad, that the terrible moments don’t last forever. Even when it’s difficult to see, there is always a little light at the end of that tunnel.
Surround yourself with people who can support you, maybe connect with others online going through the same thing. It can be a big help taking to people who understand.
And get lots of kitty cuddles. They have the magical ability to love and comfort you when you’re at your lowest❤
So sorry to hear about your ailment. My wife has fibromyalgia and was in awful pain for fifteen months. It was so bad that I couldn't even hold her hand. She finally got relief after being introduced to magnetic therapy, and has been fully active for several years. Some say that it is not real, a gimmick, a scam. But, pro athletes are using it, and I have my wife back. On the topic of Clovis Points, so named after the first one was found in Clovis, New Mexico, one was discovered near France in the Mediterranean Sea. Archeologists couldn't understand how it came to be there, but I know. Consult with different Cherokee tribal chiefs, several, and ask them how they came to be in this country. It is a fascinating story that you will not find in any books. It is only passed down from generations. Great video. Thank you.
So good to see your face again Kayleigh. Appreciate you and love your content, but YOU come before all else. Keep your health and do everything you need to do to keep yourself feeling well and energized. Kayleigh first, content second!! Peace and love from Canada!
☮️❤️🙏🇨🇦🍻
I'm sorry to hear you have an autoimmune disease, I have fibromyalgia, also an autoimmune disease. However, I was almost 50 when I discovered it, I'm nearly 70 now.
Keep your head up. At age 27 (I am assuming you are probably somewhere around your mid 20's now) I was diagnosed with the auto immune disease known as psoriatic arthritis. Stuff like this, I've been told, tends to pop up in your 20's and 30's out of nowhere. I'm 54 this month, and have learned to deal with it over time. I wish you all the best and hopefully you can get it under control. Take care!
I'm almost 32 hahaha
@@HistoryWithKayleigh I guess I never knew that. :)
Amazing to think this was possible going back 20K years. Very stimulating premise.
all the time dates are pushed back
I am so sorry for your disease, Kayleigh! I have an auto-immune disorder myself, the most common one of which I know, type-1 diabetes. (I used "disease" for your condition as it is the term for mine; as you perhaps have noted, I am a Grammar Guy). The Lord bless you, Kayleigh, and keep you....
That sounds farewell-ish, of what people are thinking when they avoid good-bye. I will pray for you, Kayleigh, and I give my best wishes and compassion.
I also apologize for how many comments I made. I kept finding more to say.... and long comments are the ones folks don't read. I trust you will be around for a long time, and you are quite brave to share that with us. I am honored and humbled. Thank you.
Bedankt.
Thank you for your cleaver and entertaining insights. This video intro to the Gault archaeological site and calling out the fanciful attraction to so called ‘ancient civilizations’ at the expense of actual findings was a credit to you and your video blog!👌👍🤙❤️ Love your style and humor! Stay healthy and well on your journey! ❤️🤗
Many archaeologists who dug sites like Gault and Meadowcroft fought and suffered for decades to get recognized by the mainstream "Clovis 1st" academic overlords.
I would be interested in seeing your top 5 list of clovis first overlords?
Ales Hrdlicka, J. W. Powell, W. H Holmes, Paul Martin @@jackrifleman562
@@charlessmarr7107 Hrdlicka died in 1943. That's about 35 years before Meadowcroft was being investigated. His position was that Native Americans had only been in the western hemisphere for about 3000 years. Folsom and early Clovis (not pre-Clovis) research proved him wrong. He is pretty much the opposite of a Clovis First Overlord.
I asked for 5. You gave me 4 and the first one that I looked into was a bust. Think I will stop there.
@@jackrifleman562 Hrdlika was the creator and leader of a paradigm that was continued by his students and followers. The fact that that paradigm was showing cracks before it was broken does not mean projects did not get funded because they did not fit his reasoning.
You reason that Chinese communism cannot exist because Marx died in 1883
@@charlessmarr7107What paradigm? What followers? You are talking about people who were probably all dead by the time that pre-Clovis work really took off in the late 70s. The dude would have been an early opponent to Clovis research. It makes no sense to claim him as a Clovis First overlord. It was Folsom and Clovis research that were responsible for moving the timeline for settlement in the Americas much further back. Why would people being proven wrong by that research turn around and assume the role of Clovis First overlords. Nothing you are saying makes sense.
Your comments about communism and china make no sense in this context. No shortage of people who believe in Marxism in the present. But I don't know of a single professional archaeologist who believes in Hrdlicka's position that humans have only been in the Americas for 3000 years. Or opposed pre-clovis research in the 70s based on that belief. Apples and oranges.
Glad you’re back, and looking forward to those decades 👍
I live in Texas and never heard of the site until now. Thanks for sharing your research on this place. Now I feel like I want to go see it. Also, glad to know you are feeling much better now.
It's interesting, the question what other people where here even before what's recorded. 🤔
Sorry to hear of your recent diagnosis but I am glad it is hopefully under control.
The world needs more people like you. Your enthusiasm is infectious...
Very sorry to hear of your health troubles. I hope that you are able to resist and cope with it. Always appreciate your great videos. Thank you and good luck 🙂
I've read something about this. I tend to forget that Texas isn't just a big desert.
Texas' land is only 10% deserts. It's mostly mountainous, so why do people assocaite Texas with its deserts? Probably from old western movies set in Texas but filmed in Italy and Southern California. You have to admit there are a lot of plateaus and plains that are not technically desert, they do have tumble weeds
Interesting video can't wait for a follow up video glad you are feeling better and keep up the amazing work
Thank you Josh!
Thank you very much. I live in the Big Bend area of Texas and have found many points and tools that are of a uniface design. The technological differences between uniface and biface design are as that of prop and jet engine aircraft. I believe these are 20 - 25,000+ years old.
Great episode Kayleigh ! So glad you're feeling better ! DAMN looters everywhere ! I sometimes wonder how much more history we would know if they hadn't interfered ! Wish we knew more about the people who lived in what's now the USA 20,000 yrs ago. Have a wonderful day !
Looters? Let me introduce you to the concept of private property...
Lay-Archeologists bring 90 percent of ancient discoveries to the World's knowledge of past cultures, The Gault Sight would most likely not be known if not for those so-called looters!
@@Jreb1865THANK YOU! Some folks...
Kaleigh, So sorry to hear about your diagnosis. Breakthrough treatments happen every day. Holistic and Traditional. My sister has lived with MS for 35 years because of breakthroughs. You do great work. Keep on keeping on. All the Best
I'm excited to see more videos of the Gault site! Take care of yourself Kayleigh!
Kayleigh, so good to see you again. From Orygun with love. Thank you for all the truly insightful lessons. Your wonderful for both beginners and seasoned diggers alike. Stay safe. M n T
I’m pretty sure you proved Grahm Hancocks major criticism. He said the major problem is most archaeologists will ignore things that don’t fit the narrative. Had Dr. Collins not stepped up this site would have been ignored because it was a “lost cause”. This is exactly what Mr. Hancock criticizes them about.
I agree. Their main problem is that they think that they know a lot, instead of assuming that they know very little for sure a small drop of water in an ocean while ignoring much more than what they think they know.
Great video Kayleigh! Well done illuminating the news with a grounded sensibility. I also have been recently diagnosed with an incurable condition which has motivated me to hike 4 to 5 miles a day and bike 20 miles. All the physicality is a bit of a silver lining. Fortunately we may be approaching a new era in medicine with certain technical advantages over the pre historical folks you study so passionately. Thanks for you candor. You’re a gem.
This tells me that this was a very rich hunting ground for so many cultures to have used it so extensively. The availability of edible plants was probably quite abundant as well.
Kayleigh: Thank you for the excellent summary of the Gault story. And I want to commend your commentary on the importance of supporting research. The rate of destruction of irreplaceable cultural resources has accelerated in recent years as artifact hunting has been popularized in the media. While collecting seems to be an innocent pastime for many, the wholescale mining of sites for the sole purpose of removing artifacts is inherently destructive and, sadly, there are few legal prohibitions against this activity. I grew up on a small ranch just a few miles from the Gault site in a time when the vast archaeological record of Central Texas was largely untouched. Today, undisturbed sites are rare. So it is increasingly important that we understand the importance of what we're losing before it's too late. The Gault School of Archaeological Research, founded by Dr. Collins, is dedicated to the mission of Research, Preservation and Education. The achievements you highlight have only been possible as a result of the generosity and commitment of hundreds of volunteers and contributors. And the work goes on!
Thank you,
Tim Brown
Thank you for this precious presentation. I live in Texas and no idea about this area 15!
No doubt they were all hat and no cattle! Hopefully, Kayleigh is feeling better too! Well another controversial dig site but nothing was as bad as the Homo floresiensis find when one native scientist actually damaged the bones!
For those wondering Kayleigh said she has Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) an inflammatory disease that includes pain and stiffness in the spine and may affect other joints. AS is an autoimmune disease that typically begins in young adulthood, but often gets overlooked or incorrectly diagnosed as pain from a previous injury or aging.
Thank you, Kayleigh. Take care of yourself. Your health should come first. 💙💙💙
We’re glad to see you back in front of the camera and providing your informative content. Personally, I love your presentation style. Prayers for you and for your improving health! Hit that gym and stay active we look forward to the film review coming next year. And seeing a lot of you between now and then!
Thanks for the overview. I look forward to an in-depth presentation about the site and its history 😁Klee, that diagnosis doesn't sound fun. It's seem you can't get a break. Wow... But I'm glad to hear your spirits are high to meet this new life challenge head on. All the best, Michael ✌🙏
It definitely sucks when the cure ( _or at least the treatment_ ) is worse than the disease. For example, some of the tremors people with the condition experience are from it, while some are from the medication meant to stop said tremors.
Just about every farmer and rancher's wife on the West side of I-45 here in Texas has a collection of arrowheads and spear tips found just laying on the surface. When hurricane's blow in sometimes you will find Clovis points dragged up from sea floor when the Texas coast was 60 miles farther out during the Ice Age. You can spend years down there before you will find a broken Clovis point but they do wash up.
Kayleigh, You are a true gem!😊
You videos are stunnily intresting. Sorry to hear of your illness. But I love your way of battling it. I have had two really bad spells of illness(aneurism and colon cancer) and know how important it is not to "give up". I am cured and well from both illnesses. So please fight your as best you can.❤❤❤
With Love from Sweden
Thank you for your support of science and scientists!!!
I hope that in 20.000 years from now, alien archeologists find a sculpture of Kayleigh, so they know how happy we were
I found some fluted points after a flood once when artifact hunting. I decided just to leave it in place. Someone will find it and enjoy the find as much as I did. This was in the Texas hill country.
Another great video Kayleigh. Thanks eh.
I immediately googled the subject and found an hour lecture on it I'm goig to watch right now. Thanks for the heads up.
Mick Marrs, the guitar player in Motley Crue has suffered with spondylosing ankylosis for decades. He has talked about it only a few times. Lucky for You, there have been huge advancements in understanding the condition since the 1980s. I wish You the best, and Thank You for being open about something so Personal.
In 1967 my Great x2 Uncle published a book called "Latest Aztec Discoveries in Texas" After he retired from the Navy he was able to go full time Archeologist with his two brothers. The site in the book is located in South East Texas on the Trinity River.
Wow Kayleigh you are Johnny on the spot. In His book he has photos of grottos, glyphs, etchings and a map of canal systems from an ancient lake. It also shows stone cutting or fracturing tequnics they used. The map of the canals on a cave wall looks more like a star map but that is just my opinion. Thank You so much for the prompt response. Hope you have a wonderful day. Forgot to mention new sub.
Interesting stuff, thanks for telling us about area 15.
I hope you are doing better!
I wonder how much the oldest-known hunter gatherers were like the modern hunter gatherers when it comes to exploiting an archeological site for private collection.
Hooray for you, Kayleigh. You keep us abreast & informed of the important developments. Sorry to hear about your condition but glad to learn that you're taking care, keeping active, and fighting hard. We're with you, behind you, for you.
😉
When I was a child (8-13 yrs). We went camping, regularly at an old mill pond. There was a dirt road nearby where we could walk along that road peering into a short stretch of the adjacent ditch and find bits of pottery and "arrowheads". Never found anything intact, definitely nothing fluted like Clovis. Story was. It was adjacent to a pre-colonial creek village.
Central State of Georgia halfway Columbus to Macon. Wonder how many campgrounds from early 60 to later crushed under developers' housing projects that didn't get rescued like the Gault site. Fascinating place for me as a boy.
Excellent summary and shared to my social media Take care of your health as best you can.
Thanks Kayleigh. You always bring insightful quality work. I wish you well coping with your illness. Much love from your loyal fanbase.
I'm a Texan and I heard of this place about two years ago. I plan to take a tour.
Kayleigh, your illness seems to have symptoms similar to the Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis that I had about 40 years ago. This is also an auto-immune disease. Fortunately for me, it did go into remission after taking steroids. A heavy dose for 2 weeks then tapering off for a year. You are dealing with this in the right way by staying active and fit. I am close to 60 and other than some minor joint aches, I am doing very well. Best of luck with this!
The Burnham site in Oklahoma is over 10,000 years old. It would be great to see you talk about that too.

One of the worst things about having an undiagnosed medical condition is not knowing what it is. All you know is that something is wrong, you just don’t know what. Finally having a diagnosis gives you peace of mind, as well as the ability to treat it. Best of luck!
thank you so much for taking me back to my early childhood when i started learning about anthropology.
How wonderful, I always felt like America was more ancient 😮
Thanks Kayleigh. Looking forward to hear more from you on the Gault site. Real Archeology!
Thank you Kaleigh for sharing you insights on the Gault Archaeological site. As a resident of Texas this is especially meaningful to me. Take care. I look forward to your future posts.
I used to walk through my Uncle's freshly plowed fields in that area of Texas and find artifacts uncovered by the plow. Unfortunately the land was sold so I no longer have access.
Great video Kayleigh. Sorry to hear of your Ankylosing Spondylitis diagnosis. I hope that in the future there is a treatment for auto immune diseases. If it is genetic related possibly Crispr gene therapy could help when it gets advanced enough. I've been having issues with my throat that I'm scared of and I'm going to see an ENT for it.
Looking forward to the next upload.
Kayleigh,
Interesting. Next we'll need to figure out how these folks arrived in North America. After all, the "ice-free corridor" theory can't be used to explain things happening this long ago.
I have ankylosing spondylitis as does my daughter. It is an adjustment coming to terms with it. Unfortunately I had been misdiagnosed for years so medication and movement is the name of the game to help with the pain and mobility. Best wishes to you and stay as mobile as you can. It helps long term.
Wishing you the very best! Just don't ever give up! I've had a condition that they told me I would die within 2 weeks, that was 16 years ago.. don't give up hope and never quit! Love you, hang in there.
Or-eh-gone is rare, that is a rarer pronunciation, but it is legitimate, Kayleigh. David Duchovny is the most current example of which I can remember of someone saying it. I believe it was more common in the past.
Take care. Good health and long life.
Apparently I was born with a Pars defect at L5. I was in my 50s the first time I had a problem when I got out of bed one morning and my legs gave out. I was able to manage it into my late 60s when it became difficult to walk. Doctors didn't want to do anything because it could paralyze me. Now in my 70s even sitting upright can only be for short periods. I hope you have better doctors and more advancements are made.
Never miss a video. I am learning so much.and enjoying your deleivery
Health issues are never any fun. Glad to hear your doing better. Looking forward to seeing the movie next year.
Going thru the same condition as you, got diagnosed in 2016 thru me coming down with uveitis in both eyes. Now going thru monthly injections of Cimzia. Like you said, I also very rarely got sick due to my autoimmune condition. Hang in there. Best of luck. P.S. My brother dug up some Clovis tips on my dad's property near Camp Wood,Texas along with an ancient fire pit. I forwarded you video to him.
Kayleigh, this is my first time commenting here. Forgive me if I get a little wordy. I have the utmost respect for your composure and precision in the delivery of knowledge.
I am on board with your convictions about proper archeological processes. I am a follower of several other reputable sources of the science of archeology on UA-cam. It's always fascinating!!! Not surprisingly, it seems your going to attack this new challenge in your life with the same composure and precision as you have with your presentations here.
Lastly, respectfully. I would be remiss if I didn't mention that your stunning beauty enhances the experience of learning from you.
Thank you.❤ I wish nothing but good fortune for you moving forward.
I hope you get better... Love your videos... They're as good as any Archeology class I've taken.
Another good video and cheers to Dr. Collins
Wish you all the best and that you can recover promptly. My late mother was a professional physiotherapist; and I am fairly sure she would have shown you some movements that are meant to keep you mobile. No strain, just movement, that will keep your limbs elastic, and with them the nerves running along them. Imagine your living room door is really creaky, but your partner is sleeping on the couch and you don't want to wake them up. So you move cautiously but steadily. Being able to sneak through life like through such a door, will be your goal.
About 40 years ago(ooooof) I lived in Alabama and we had a long driveway that was dug a couple of feet into the ground and everytime we had a heavy rain I found arrowheads coing out of the banks. I ended up with a cigar box full with like 4 different style of arrowheads from white to color black and in between. Ended up find around 20 arrowheads while living there. I wish I could travel back in time and tell my kid self to maybe investigate it a little more. I have not found another arrowhead in my life since I moved away from there. There is no telling what might be hiding under the surface there.
Hi Kayleigh, a channel called TexasFiilmStudio has done a video on Gault that's nearly 20 minutes long, posted 11 years ago, I only know that because it popped up on the right of the screen. Steve. UK.
Thank you, nice to know.
The Gault sight sounds incredibly exciting! Thanks for the information.👍🏼
Texas has much to offer related to archeology 😎👍
More is to come that will blow our minds😎👍
On a personal note...My Hope's are that you, Kayleigh, will find some relief from the condition you've contracted. 🤞🤞👍
😎✌👍❤🖖
As a Texan interested in archaeology I am very grateful for this video. 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍
another Texan here, looking forward to the film about Gault site
Thank you for covering this. Native people have been her MUCH longer than is currently believed.. and of course these are ADVANCED civilizations they were organized and skilled and made full use of the resources available at the time and were successful for thousands of years
Howdy from Texas. Thanks for bringing light to TX history
Thanks for covering Gault site! :)
People can hate anyone that may know more than them especially those that are publicly known as experts. They often don't care about the truth of archeology but do care about discrediting experts they feel threatened by. They are not really looking for facts only fuel to burn the experts to a crisp[not literally]. If the ideas both discredit experts and give them flights of fancy they love it even more.
People need to raise their children with love so there will be fewer people that feel threatened by the publicly recognized consensus of experts.
This is amazing. I can’t wait to see the movie. I have first Nations ancestry from the Taino line of my family and there’s very little about the time you know out there, but genetically I’ve been linked to the Melanesians, who supposedly were the first south Americans, and there is just so little information right now that there’s more every year, but just in my lifetime we have discovered tons of things and reversed. A lot of things that were formerly believed about the first nations in these two continents. I do believe there’s a place for Graham Hancock and his fantastic entertainment series but it’s not archaeology that he does it’s speculation that’s OK they have fantasies and might not you know if any of his stuff gets a kid interested in anthropology or archaeology then it’s a good thing, as long as they go to the real thing and not alien fantasy season all that weird useless drivel about crystal computers and an Atlantis and flying ships and stuff like that you know I don’t buy that because I use my brain. I accept this nonsense could be possible, but I’m gonna need to see some kind of proof, and Graham Hancock has had no real proof of any of his stories, but the find us in taxes is an amazing find. It’s a shame more money isn’t put behind sites like this, but hopefully the movie will do really well and more money will be able to go into the site.
Wishing you well Kayleigh. You are resilient and can overcome these hurdles. We adapt, we improvise, and we overcome.
So sorry to hear your health news. I love your channel, and I hope you are able to continue to educate us for a long time!
With regard to G Hancock; it is all in the marketing. People like to think there is some secret that the elite are hiding. It sells books, etc.
Most archaeologists aren’t excellent at marketing.
Thank you for making archaeology accessible to regular people! I hope that you (and Graham Hancock) inspire young minds to explore a career in archaeology or science in general.
The problem is that the typical archaeologist doesen' have the luxury of sitting around all day getting stoned and berating their wife because of being paranoia because of chronic drug abuse. They spend months digging at sites instead of doing a few quick visits for photo ops.
@jackrifleman5622, Jack, hope you are well my friend. You certainly piqued my interest with that quick statement in your comment about Graham Hancock, getting stoned and berating his wife. I havent yet seen his Netflix doc...was there something in the documentary about him and his wife arguing or whatever or have you seen something elsewhere that you could explain further? Thanks bud.
@@zachh2776 Hancock discusses this in his essay "Giving up the Green Bitch" available online and in his TEDX talk on the War on consciousness on youtube. It came to my attention when others brought it up in social media discussions.
