From the Barnett News Service; to be releases on or about April 1, 2015.
A dramatic find was uncovered a few years ago in Western South Dakota by Interstate 90. Recent dating shows the fossilized remains of a Homo sapiens and a T. rex to be from 65 million years ago. This pushes back the rise of modern man by millions of years. Scientists conjecture they were buried by debris thrown up by a near by meteor impact. Over the eons, iron from the soil replaced their bones to fossilize them into metal like skeletons. An iron ax and chain found at the site also showed that Iron Age started a lot earlier than thought. The remains may be seen by I-90 about a half mile east of Exit 170 near Murdo, South Dakota. There just happens to be an 1880's ghost town theme park at that location. Larger sized samples of my work can be seen on Google Plus at https://plus.google.com/u/0/+JerryBarnettPhoto
