In celebration of Women's History Month, we want to take a moment to recognize the incredible women in history who have made lasting contributions to science and research. Today we recognize, Margaret Lyneis was one of the few women present at the Tule Springs Fossil Beds “Big Dig” from 1962 - 1963, which tested whether humans interacted with Late Pleistocene animals at this site as well as possible associations of Pleistocene animal fossils with charcoal and tools. GBI is proud of our partnership with Tule Springs Fossil Beds National Monument continuing paleontoligical survey of high-use areas within the park.
