Al Goodyear knew he wanted to be an archaeologist before he knew what the word meant.
“It was in the second grade at Mount Vernon Elementary School,” he said. “Our teacher was Miss Mary Lou Wells and we were studying ‘Florida Heritage.’ I heard about the Indians and that’s all it took. I wanted to ride in a canoe and wear a breech cloth all day.”
Not much about his work at Topper (the suposedly pre-Clovis site).
