Woolly mammoths may have walked the landscape at the same time as the earliest humans in what is now New England, according to a Dartmouth study published in Boreas. Through the radiocarbon dating of a rib fragment from the Mount Holly mammoth from Mount Holly, Vt., the researchers learned that this mammoth existed some 12,800 years ago. The humans in the Northeast are thought to have arrived around the same time.

More than 170 years after that discovery, Dartmouth researchers have found that the Mount Holly mammoth may have overlapped with the Northeast’s earliest human residents.
