"The bones and artifacts were just a couple of feet underground, and as soon as the archaeologist we had on site to monitor the work was notified, he stopped all of the work," National Park Service spokeswoman Alexandra Picavet said.

Federal law intended to prevent looting prohibits her from revealing the exact location, she said.
