hundreds of years to advance slowly, eating
up the ground, converting it to beach, often
slowly retreating over a few decades, and then
advancing again; and usually doing this time
after time. This process will grind up all soft
fossils, and nearly all flint points that are
encountered. We finish up with layers of sand
and mud at the bottom of the sea, and there's
little point in looking, even if we can.

Well,
I suppose you guessed as hard as you could,
before posting that crap.

"But it was at this particular outcrop,
nine miles off the north Florida coast in Apalachee Bay,
that a team led by Faught found what may be
a 12,000 year-old projectile point,
a spear point dating back to the Suwannee era.
By all accounts it could be the oldest artifact
ever recovered on the continental shelf
by professional archaeologists."
