Those are some really heavy brown ridges on that skull cap.

Perhaps someone can help me out here, Naia was a maybe 100lb undernourished teenage mother who fell into a sinkhole in the Yucatán maybe 13,000 years ago. https://hoyonegro.ucsd.edu/naia.phpThe relevance here is that I have read somewhere that early populations from South/Central America had an unusual degree of sexual dimorphism wherein the guys averaged considerably larger, and that more than a few males exhibited healed skull fractures, indicating they hit each other a lot. If I’m recalling all that correctly, this Minnesota skull cap’s healed fracture would fit. Can’t find a source of where I read it tho. That is fascinating. A complete skeleton found in an underwater cave in the Yucatan, Mexico. She lived 12,000 years ago! That is the very end of the ice age.

The Indians weren't so sacred to other Indians while alive. Comanches on a raid to New Mexico would capture a few Apaches. They headed back to the Comanche camp in north Texas. The Apache woman would be gang raped repeatedly. If she couldn't keep up, they would stake her out in the desert on her back, and cut her eyelids out, and leave her there to die in a few days, staring at the relentless sun.
If the Apache man made it back to the Comanche camp alive, the squaws would stake him out, and pile burning coals on his hand, until the hand was burned off of the arm. Took several hours. Then the squaws switched over to burn off the other hand. After a while, they would start piling coals on the feet. Took several days to roast an Apache.
If the Apache cried out while being burned, he was laughed at, and considered a sissy.

Very prominent eyebrow ridges on that skull. Meaning what, I don't know. We visited the pre-historic dig in Mitchell SD and found it very interesting. Those people were unrelated to the Lakota in any way. GD Very prominent. Frontal cranium appears sloped with not a whole lot of skull above the eyes. If found in a river it would be doubtful death occurred where the skull was found. Water flow, flood level water flow, kept as a souvenir then discarded, on & on. Officials who surrendered the skull are idiots. Lots of data to be gathered there telling us a lot about human migrations.

Be funny if it turned out to be a prehistoric turtle shell. McConnell could claim it as a relative.

How do they know it was a man? Are they biologists? Lol
Maybe he identified as a female African and we will have to rewrite all the books...

How do they know it's a he? He had cotton balls stuffed in his ear holes. So they not onjy know he was male, but also that he was married.

He was 100% certainly a Native American; he was almost certainly a tribe member; and he died right there. All three being true, there's no reason why the current tribe there shouldn't claim him as an ancestor.
There were people in the Americas at least 15,000 years ago, and ever since. Heavy brow ridges and no forehead to speak of, no mention of attempts at DNA analysis. Maybe it was Bigfoot.

A human skull that's about 8,000 years old was found in the Minnesota River south of Sacred Heart. The Renville County Sheriff's Office on Wednesday said two kayakers came across the bone in September 2021. The Midwest Medical Examiner's Office determined the bone was human, and the FBI's forensic anthropologist concluded the bone belonged to a young adult man. The skull has a depressed area, which is consistent with blunt force trauma, the sheriff's office said. Through Carbon-14 analysis, preliminary information indicates the man would have been alive between 5,500-6,000 BCE, so nearly 8,000 years ago.
