In a mound near Omaha, Nebraska, have been exhumed some human remains which seem likely to attract more than passing attention. The finder, R.F. Gilder, has been interested in the archeology of the Missouri valley and the region beyond, and has previously unearthed at various points numerous objects of interest and value. In this case the remains were found in a mound located on a conspicuous hill crest, and are unusually well preserved. None of the skeletons is complete, and many of the bones are imperfect, yet some peculiar features are apparent on first examination.
