I've been going through a few old photos to try and help set up a professional looking website for myself, with Kacy's help. I came across this photo taken from the inside of Bat Cave looking north across the Plains of San Augustine.


The Bat Cave is often cited as having some of the earliest evidence of corn cultivation. During the last Ice Age a huge lake came up onto the slope below the cave. The hope was to do additional excavations in the cave looking for early Paleoindian deposits.

    That is a beautiful photo.
    Sounds like an awesome project to propose for the NSF or National Geographic.

      It would be an awesome project. Unfortunately there were issues with permits an access to the original excavation notes, maps, and artifacts. Maybe someday.
