Pending funds become available,
Doctor Kelly said today he plans to
revive excavation of a site two miles
north of Albany where tools dating
back to the Old Stone Age and one
human bone from the same period
were unearthed.
The age of the site was determined
geochem'.cally by Dr. v. p. sokoioft,
Russian-born geographical researcher
and pioneer in geochemical analysis.
The other worker with Doctor Kelly
in the preliminary excavation was
Dr. George F. Carter, head of the
School of Geography at John Hop
kins University.
“.Accidental Discovery"
The three men were en route to
other excavations in Southwest Geor
gia and Florida when they made
what they called an "accidental dis
covery" near Albany.
Doctor Kelly said pottery and arti
facts were also dragged from the
earth which, the scientists 3aid, date
hack before 2,000 B. C. Dart points
were also found and estimated to
have been part of a culture that ex
isted more than 10,000 years back.
Doctor Kelly and his eo-workers
spotted jagged hits of (lint exposed
where a roadbed had been cut while
traveling on the outskirts of Albany
and seized on the chance to explore
their findings.
Termed Great Significance
The find was at once termed of
great significance hy Doctor Kelly,
who commented that it may estab
lish parts of the south as among the
first dwelling places of man on this
continent.
In all likelihood, the scientists
arid. the type of human whose ex
istence has thus been confirmed was
similar to Neanderthal man. Evi
dence of existence of Neanderthal
man has been found in Europe and
In Java, hut never hefore on the
American continent
Doctor Kelly said he hopes the ex
cavation can he revived "as soon as
possible."
The geochemist said "both archae
ological and geochemical data indi
cate a great antiquity, possibly ante
dating the last glacial age, about
100,000 years ago.”
It has been generally assumed by
anthropologists in the past that no
traces of Paleolithic man had been
left in North America, and many, ^n
fact, have denied the existence of
men in America before Neolithic
times
The discovery pushes back scien
tific knowledge of human antiquity
in the New World at leaBt 70,000
years. •
Three well-defined strata of soils
were found In the cut investigated by
the scientists—-a modern agricultural
top soil, a stratum dating back to
Neolithic times, and, below that, a
severely weathered stratum from the
Paleolithic period.
Expansion Program

grant from the general education
hoard and the board of regents.
This is the second consecutive

neled money into this department for
expanded services.
According to Lamar Dodd, art de
partment head, the expansion pro
gram “Is a step toward a much lar
ger service to the state."
Outling plans for use of the fund,
Dodd said that It would make pos
sible the appearance on campus again
of James Johnson Sweeney, noted art
critic and lecturer. Sweeney was a
guest on campus three different
times last year as a special lecturer
and art consultant.
In other areas the money will be
used to advance the department's pro
gram of painting, lithography, etch
ing, art history, industrial design,
and general art.
Distinguished scholars will visit
the department for as much as a
month’s tenure to conduct special
(lasses In their special fields. Dodd
said.
They will Include Sue Fuller and
Ralph Fanning. Miss Fuller, New
Yor.. lithographer, and Fanning, a
watercolor and art history expert,
both participated in the program last
