Arlington Springs Man
Arlington Springs Man[nb 1] was an ancient Paleoindian,[1] most likely a man,[2] whose remains were found in 1959 on Santa Rosa Island, one of the Channel Islands located off the coast of Southern California. He lived about 13,000 years Before Present, making him the earliest dated adult in North America.[nb 2][5] It was an important scientific discovery because his presence on the island at this early date supports the coastal migration theory for the peopling of the Americas.[6][1] In 2022, after a NAGPRA request, Arlington Springs Man was repatriated to the Santa Ynez Band of Chumash Mission Indians for reburial according to their native customs at an undisclosed location.
