The Paluxy River



The Paluxy River runs through Glen Rose, Texas. At the bottom of this river, there are thousands of layers of limestone. There was a bad flood in 1908 that ripped off 2 feet of solid rock. This rock was carried 20 miles downstream. This exposed thousands of dinosaur footprints. There were so many footprints that they decided to make the area into a State Park(Dinosaur Valley State Park). Many of the footprints were put into museums in order to be preserved, but there are still many there today.

Many human footprints were also found. Sometimes the human tracks were next to the dinosaur tracks. Several human footprints were found inside of the dinosaur footprints and some dinosaur footprints were found on top of the human footprints. The human strides were perfect.

In 1930 Roland T. Bird, field explorer for the American Museum, reported 15-20 inch long "clearly defined" human footprints with dinosaur tracks.

Some skeptics believed that these human footprints were fake. They lifted up more rock ledges along the ride of the river, only to find more prints. One footprint was even cut in half and sawed across the toes. The lamination line was distorted by the mud squeezing up between the toes.


The following is a letter that was written by David Smith(associate pastor at First Southern Baptist Church) to Dr. Kent Hovind:


I grew up in Glen Rose...I went on an excavation with Dr. Carl Baugh. ...we followed the footsteps of a man which were beside a dinosaurs footprints. It was as if the man were walking with the dinosaur. Nova was there to film the dig. There was also an evolutionist there who had been arguing with Dr. Baugh the entire time.

Nova didn't film much of the tracks or our dig but they did interview this evolutionist. He told them he had not seen anything there to disprove evolution. What he didn't tell the camera was that he had refused to even turn around and look at the tracks we had been working on.

He stood with his back to the dig and the tracks while making these statements. Nova knew this man had not looked at the tracks but did not report that nor did they give Dr. Baugh equal air time to respond.
