The Skulls from Torrington, Wyoming: A Re-evaluation
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 January 2017
Abstract
The Torrington skeletal material owes its suspected antiquity to its osteologic similarity to Minnesota Man. A recent study of the Torrington remains, based on laboratory analysis and grave artifacts, indicates that these burials are of late prehistoric age. These results reveal the danger of using morphological comparison, without supporting evidence, to establish chronological relationships.
