There’s been big news lately in the world of archaeology: archaeologists have found the oldest human footprints in the American Southwest (Tucson, Arizona, specifically). The prints, which are 2,500-3,000 years old according to dates obtained by radiocarbon testing, were made by people walking across an agricultural field.
The exciting find has been covered by a multitude of news sources, some of which even included the 3D models of the footprints, which were produced by Doug Gann (@archaeologysouthwest) of Archaeology Southwest.
