Leading forensic anthropologist Doug Owsley and his fellow scientists are beginning to reveal some of the information from their first week of studying the ancient Kennewick Man skeleton. Included with the story (http://www.kennewick-man.com/kman/news/story/6697688p-6584620c.html) is a gallery of photos.   At today’s news conference, Owsley’s team displayed plastic replicas of Kennewick Man's skull and hipbone, using a high-powered CAT scan of the original to make a three-dimensional computer image of the inside and outside of the skull and hip bones.  An excellent article concerning the Kennewick Man studies, as well as the controversy from beginning to end, can be found on the Tri-City Herald's Kennewick Man Virtual Interpretive Center, at: http://www.kennewick-man.com/index.html  5:29:27 PM    comment []
