Mapping Out when two flint arrowheads were found imbedded between the ribs of a mammoth that died "at least" 12,000 years ago. Killad by Hunters Marie Louise Wormington, an thropologist of the University of Denver, said there was no doubt that the mammoth was killed by ancient hunters. j "This is the most important discovery of its kind ever made in the America's." she said. "It finally destroys the theory that the 'dawn man' could not have existed side-by-side with the mammoth, the giant tiger and other prehistoric animals." The mammoth bones were found by workers digging an- ir rigation ditch in this village 35 miles north of Mexico City, less than two miles from the spot where a skeleton of the 10,000-year-old Tepexpan man was found six years ago. Called Oldest Evidence Until the finding of the two spearheads, as well ts an obsid ian knife and a small scraper, the Tepexpan skeleton was be lieved to be the oldest evidence of the existence of man in Amer ica. The two Tepexpan "finds" ex ploded the long-held belief that man immigrated to the Western j Hemisphere from Asia in com paratively recent times. I Miss Wormington said the two ! "sensational" discoveries in the same area spurred scientists to plan new excavations and a "complete investigation" of the section. Now a dusty and flat farmland 10 miles from the an cient Toltes pyramids of San Juan Teotihuaean, the area was believed to have been a swampy jungle in prehistoric times. Link Established I She said the spearheads were predecessor of the classic "Scott's Bluff" type found in the United States and dating thousands of years later, "thus proving the continuity between the primitive man of Mexico and the later man of North America." The knife and scraper found with the mammoth bones led scientists to speculate that the hunters wounded and chased the mammoth into the swamp, where they finished it off with the knife. Dr. Luis Avclcyra, who headed the investigations, said the scraper appeared to be "an in strument made especially lor taking off meat."
