Colorado construction workers have made a surprising discovery, unearthing human bones of a Native American man that could date back a millennium. The workers discovered the remains Wednesday during an excavation in Aurora, the city's police department said. An investigation by homicide detectives, the coroner’s office and state archaeologists determined that the bones were “most likely over 100, if not 1,000, years old,” Aurora police spokesman Matthew Longshore said Thursday.
