P.S., I think it's unlikely that these Native American legends were based on a single pathological individual that had been totally sealed off in a cave, at...
I wonder how many of these skeletons might feature archaic traits like the lack of a chin. Perhaps many (or all?) of these skeletons actually closely resemble...

What I find the most interesting is their description as hairy-faced. Most little people legends have them looking pretty much human that I've read. -- Anthony...
Anthony, Interesting point. I'm reminded that one of my wife's younger brothers, named Luis, reports having seen an "Alux" (little person) in Oxkutzcab,...
Oh, I neglected to specify, Luis said the "Alux" did not have a hairy body, though it did have black hair on its head, armpits, and pubic region. Dan...
I've just been comparing the photos and x-rays of the Pedro Mountain Mummy with those of other ("normal sized") mummies. It appears that "Pedro" was...
Tying this data into the discussion of the Pedro Mountain Mummy (approximately 14 inches tall if standing,) I think it's relevant to note something: Even the...

This strikes me as a likely case of genetic reversion, in which case, some ancestors of these catfish would have had gene(s) to produce such pigment(s) in the...

I suspect the reason so many animals (and plants) dwarf so readily, under environmental pressures, is that a genetic reversion mechanism is in place, which...
