From the Archives: Scientists have identified the largest ever assemblage of mammoth bones.
The remains date between 20,000 and 10,000 years in age. Sánchez remarks that these bones are not the product of a single event but the accumulation of some 10,000 years of mammoth presence in the region. “These huge animals required a large amount of food; the [nearby] lakeshore had a high concentration of plant species, so many were trapped in the mud by their own weight while they were eating,” Sánchez says.
To date, Manzanilla’s team of more than 250 archaeologists, restorers, and workers has collected over 8,000 bones from mammoths, South American camels, and. The crew hopes to find more before work on the airport, which covers an area of more than 3,000 hectares, is finished in 2022.
