Researchers have found what they suspect is a rare example of cremation among the early native inhabitants of the southeastern U.S.
Exposed by erosion at the edge of a crumbling bluff, the pit discovered beneath 2 feet (60 centimeters) of sandy dirt at first appeared to be a grave just long and deep enough to bury a human body.
