Archaeologists are working to uncover evidence of human presence from 5,000 years ago. A long-held notion in academia has been that few people lived in the area before 2,000 years ago, but new findings contradict this idea.

It is now known that this notion is incorrect, indicating a more complex history. Further details about the discovery and its significance are available.

The findings pertain to Palm Beach County, where archaeologists are digging deep to unlock the evidence of ancient human presence.
