THE CASE:

An Oklahoma resident discovered an unusual bison skull while fossil hunting in a dry riverbed.

Lodged in the bone was a handmade point our contributor believes dates back to the Calf Creek culture, which lived in the area around 3000 B.C.

Could this be just another hoax or an incredible archeological discovery?
