Tom Dillehay's dating of the Monte Verde site in Chile to 12,800 years ago - hundreds of years before the Mackenzie corridor opened the remote possibility of Beringia (dry Bering Sea) migration - seems to have driven a stake into the theory that man first migrated by land to the Americas.

Tom Dillehay's dating of the Monte Verde site in Chile to 12,800 years ago - hundreds of years before the Mackenzie corridor opened the remote possibility of Beringia (dry Bering Sea) migration - seems to have driven a stake into the theory that man first migrated by land to the Americas. Even most of the establishment achaeologists have now come to admit that their doubts about Monte Verde's authenticity were misguided. Even Brian Fagan, who championed Beringia migration in the THE GREAT JOURNEY, has visited the site and called Dillehay's dates "unassailable.

Discovered in the 1970s in a cool, temperate rain forest, the Monte Verde site in Chile has yielded evidence that precedes the widely accepted date - 11,400 years ago - for the earliest human presence in the Americas.

Monte Verde: A Late Pleistocene Settlement in Chile: The Archaeological Context and Interpretation, Vo., The Archaeological Context and Interpretation. Discovered in the 1970s in a cool, temperate rain forest, the Monte Verde site in Chile has yielded evidence that precedes the widely accepted date - 11,400 years ago - for the earliest human presence in the Americas.

The site is an open-air campsite on the banks of a small stream, surrounded by sandy knolls, small bogs, and damp forests that have been there since late Pleistocene times.

The Smithsonian Institution has recently published Dillehay's Monte Verde: A Late Pleistocene Settlement in Chile, Vol. 2: The Archaeological . 2: The Archaeological Context and Interpretation (1997) into which he incorporates materials from the 1990 symposium. These 13 published contributions provide an historical context for contemporary discussions and arguments about the theoretical and methodological directions that archaeology as currently practiced in Latin America is taking or should pursue in the future. A second goal of the book is to correct misrepresentations and errors that appear in the so-called "first world" literature about the history of Latin America (p. ix).
