ROUND ROCK, Texas — Human bones discovered this week by construction crews in Central Texas are almost certainly ancient remains of Native Americans, according to authorities.
Round Rock Police Cmdr. Alain Babin said an FBI anthropologist saw images of the bones and was "quite certain that they are ancient remains," the Austin American-Statesman reported Friday

Anthropologists from Texas State University were set to go Friday to the wooded area where roads for a new 225-home subdivision are being built. The area is known to locals as a good place to look for arrowheads.
If ancient American Indian remains are found on private land, the landowner must either preserve the site or have a professional, such as a licensed funeral director, a coroner or a professional archaeologist, remove them, according to state law. Remains that have been moved must be reburied in a perpetual care cemetery unless a judge, medical examiner or other official orders otherwise.

John Zinsmeyer, vice president of planning and development for KB Home, the company building the subdivision, said KB Home is willing to "work with authorities to do the right thing, and that is to be determined." Discoveries of Native American remains can delay construction projects.

    • Meh… I wish there was a network that has all sports.  This thing will fail.
    • Neither Barkley nor even a healthy CMC would move the needle much for us. Those are guys that impact teams that already have impressive overall offenses and defenses, so they can perform the complimentary roles that make them actually valuable. We should know that specifically because CMC almost never moved the needle on bad Panthers team after bad Panthers team. Ask Giants fans about that with Saquon.
    • I would generally disagree. You see a lot more load management than previously but that is because being healthy in the playoffs is such a key factor. Different philosophies in that regard than previous generations.  Baseball really doesn't matter until at least halfway through the season. I am not gonna say they don't play hard but the physical demands are infinitesimal in the MLB in comparison to basically any other major pro sport.  People dislike all the shooting these days but that's a direct correlation with how much the overall skill level of the average NBA player has drastically risen over the past 15ish years. There are other aggravating factors, certainly, but that is the biggest one in terms of playing style differences. So many of the guys from the 80's and 90's wouldn't even be able to play in the modern NBA at all. The biggest problem the NBA has with the American market(they are the only US sport that has any real international appeal or interest, minus the NHL) is that they are so steadily corrupt and fix the systems against the small market teams. Well, you eventually lose a big chunk of the league viewership/potential viewership in the process. Take the very obviously fixed NBA draft lotteries. Superstar and upper tier star players rarely want to play for small market teams, nor can they usually afford to pay them. So how do you expect them to possibly compete in that environment?
