Details

Timothy H. Heaton, Ph.D., is a professor of earth sciences at The University of South Dakota (USD), Vermillion, specializing in archaeological geology. Having grown up near the Grand Canyon, much of Dr. Heaton's work is focused on the Great Basin as well as on forming chronologies for the extinction of many Ice Age animals; He discovered a new species of fossil skunk (Brachyprotoma) at Crystal Ball Cave, Utah. Dr. Heaton has also devoted much of his time evaluating the scientific merits of young-Earth creationist geology and the application of biblical evidence to understanding the earth's prehistory. He is most widely known for his work at On Your Knees Cave located in Prince of Wales Island in southeast Alaska where early humans remains ca. 10,300 years old were found. This find is one of the oldest human genetic samples recovered in the Americas. The site record further supports the possibility the first people into the Americas south of the ice sheets traveled along the Alaskan coast by boat rather than overland through central Canada.
