A geologist discovered an exciting object that had fallen from a nearby cliff while winding through a trail in the Grand Canyon’s red cliffs. The massive object was torn from an ancient rock formation that contained an astonishing secret, which dates back to millions of years ago. After noticing the item, the geologist snapped a photograph of what he had found. The impact that this one photograph had is extraordinary, as it has gone on to kickstart a chain of events that’s undoubtedly changed the knowledge we have about Arizona in prehistoric times. This is what was discovered.
