Episode description
In 1982, a backhoe operator preparing sturdy land for a suburban development near Titusville, Florida discovered a skull in the murky waters of Windover Pond. The county coroner was called, and the human remains were deemed to be old, but the question was how old? The shocking series of events that followed this discovery led archaeologists to uncover one of the most important archaeological sites in the United States-- a prehistoric burial ground over 7,000 years old.
