The skull discovered last year by two people kayaking in a river in Minnesota is 8 thousand years ago.
Renville County Sheriff Scott Hable said this, according to US media reports.
The two found the artifact in the Minnesota River, about 180 km west of Minneapolis. Thinking it might be related to the case of a missing person or a murder, Hable had the skull examined by a coroner and then the FBI, who determined that it probably belonged instead to a young man who lived in that area between 5500 and 6000 BC .
After the sheriff published the news of the discovery he was criticized by local Native Americans, for whose culture publishing images of ancestral remains is offensive. So Hable decided to deliver the skull to the local Sioux community.
