With its neutral pH, Florida’s Windover Bog provided optimal conditions for the preservation of human remains—even brain tissue—for over 7,000 years. This program delves into the most important archaeological discovery in North America, a prehistoric cemetery with a trove of skeletons, ancient DNA, artifacts, and fabrics that has utterly changed our assumptions about the continent’s earliest inhabitants. Along with dig footage and reenactments of early life, Professor Glen Doran, the Florida State University anthropologist who supervised the excavation, and other experts talk extensively about analysis of the finds.
