15.Best Time Keeper
Waldo Wilcox knew there was trouble the moment he saw the mauled(受伤的) deer carcass, not far from one of the meadows where his cattle grazed. His dogs, Dink and Shortie, nd it too—mountain lion. He grabbed his pistol and a rope from his truck, and said, "Let's get him." Then he headed up the mountainside, his hounds racing far ahead.
Wilcox moved in long strides up the rocky grade. Still, it took some time before he topped the summit. The big cat was not 50 yards in front of him, its fangs(尖牙) bared, cornered by the dogs on a massive sandstone bluff.
Wilcox gripped his gun. He hoped to take the mountain lion alive and ll it to a zoo; he'd done that before and made a tidy profit. Wilcox took quick aim, his pistol cracked, and there was a sudden silence as the animal fell limp to the ground.
It wasn't until the red dust had ttled and Wilcox's pul had slowed that he gazed around. What he saw stunned him. High on the bluff lay an archeological(考古学的) treasure trove(珍藏物) large pieces of pottery, stone shelters that once houd whole families, and domed structures that had held wild grains harvested centuries before Europeans t foot in North America.
Wilcox made his discovery on the bluff almost 20 years ago—but it was not the first time he had found relics on his land. Since 1951, when his father bought the high valley Range Creek ranch, a year had ldom pasd in which Wilcox did not come upon some
spot of archeological interest. Occasionally he stumbled across burial plots.
Native American Culture
For nearly half a century, he kept quiet about the riches, telling hardly anyone outside his immediate family what was hidden in the isolated valley 160 miles southeast of Salt Lake City. When he discovered a new site, Wilcox would note its location—then just let things be.
Now the cret of Range Creek is finally out. Four years ago, forced by time to give up ranching, Wilcox, 75, sold his beef-cattle property in a deal that ultimately put the land in state hands. Thanks to Wilcox's silence, the 4,200-acre ranch is one huge, untouched archeological site. Today, scientists from Utah's Division of State History and the University of Utah are busily cataloguing magnificent, previously unknown ruins on the property.
What the scientists are learning at Range Creek has already begun to shed light on one o
f the greatest mysteries of Native American history—the fate of the Fremont culture, which had thrived in Utah for almost 1,000 years, then vanished virtually over-night in the 1300s.
