Yahoo news story of a 13,000 year-old cache of tools made by the Clovis people found in Boulder, Colorada by a guy putting in a fish pond in his front yard. Imagine that.... You never know when or where you'll find treasure!

Edited to add: In my excitement, I didn't check and see that someone already posted this.... Sorry. Will be more careful in the future.

Very cool of the guy to show respect for the ancient people by reburying some of the tools.

Good for Patrick Mahaffy! I agree Mike. The guy has class for respecting the individuals who placed them there so long ago. Good story.
