Excerpt from The Professor and the Fossil I arrived in Paris on the day of the publication of the nazi-soviet Pact, and my assignment was over. Now the world's newspapers would not have even a ten-line filler on the tenth page to Spare for the peripheral tragedy of the Jewish refugees. Moreover, the traffic in rescue was tempo farily disrupted, to be resumed later under more desperate circumstances. Not that war was considered quite certain; nor, when it was declared, was its continuance considered quite certain. (let the incredulous reader consult the news paper files for the early days of the phony war. But the pact itself was a tremendous event; and if war was uncertain, both before and after the declaration, the wild maneuvering was now being conducted on the very edge of the abyss.

The burnt-red badlands of Montana's Hell Creek are a vast graveyard of the Cretaceous dinosaurs that lived 68 million years ago. Those hills were, much later, also home to the Sioux, the Crows, and the Blackfeet, the first people to encounter the dinosaur fossils exposed by the elements. What did Native Americans make of these stone skeletons, and how did they explain the teeth and claws of gargantuan animals no one had seen alive? Did they speculate about their deaths? Did they collect fossils? Beginning in the East, with its Ice Age monsters, and ending in the West, where dinosaurs lived and died, this richly illustrated and elegantly written book examines the discoveries of enormous bones and uses of fossils for medicine, hunting magic, and spells. Well before Columbus, Native Americans observed the mysterious petrified remains of extinct creatures and sought to understand their transformation to stone. In perceptive creation stories, they visualized the remains of extinct mammoths, dinosaurs, pterosaurs, and marine creatures as Monster Bears, Giant Lizards, Thunder Birds, and Water Monsters. Their insights, some so sophisticated that they anticipate modern scientific theories, were passed down in oral histories over many centuries. Drawing on historical sources, archaeology, traditional accounts, and extensive personal interviews, Adrienne Mayor takes us from Aztec and Inca fossil tales to the traditions of the Iroquois, Navajos, Apaches, Cheyennes, and Pawnees. Fossil Legends of the First Americans represents a major step forward in our understanding of how humans made sense of fossils before evolutionary theory developed.
