The bones are quite deep – 13 meters from the surface. Archaeologist Phil K. Orr has suggested that they are about ten thousand years old. In 1987, using the radiocarbon method, it was possible to determine the age of the remains to be 13,000 years.
Archaeologists now say the remains are the oldest ever found in the Americas.
In particular, only the femurs fell into the hands of scientists. There is no complete skeleton. The remains were found to belong to a woman.
In 2006, another study was conducted that showed that the man from Arlington Spring lived a separate life.
