A freshman found a tiny stone on a Seattle campus, and what looked like an ordinary rock, uncovered ancient Native American history from thousands of years ago

A small stone point found by a student at the University of Washington in 2009 unearthed a significant archaeological discovery. Experts from the Burke Museum confirmed the artifact's age, dating it between 4,000 and 6,700 years old. This find provided clear evidence of ancient Native American presence on the land long before the university existed.
