Christine, there is a town just North of Austin, Leander, where the remains of a woman reported to be at least 15,000 years old were found about 20 years ago. It was known about locally, but I have never seen it mentioned elsewhere. She is jokingly referred to as "Leanderthal woman".

The stretch of hwy 35 between San Antonio and Dallas roughly follows the Eastern edge of a huge area of limestone, which most of West Texas is composed of. On this edge are numerous large freshwater springs that suddenly appear out of the ground. At San Marcos it is such a large amount that it is actually the start of the San Marcos river. Naturally these areas must have seemed like paradise for animals and humans alike, and many ancient remains of each have been found in these areas. It could very well be where the oldest American remains will be found.
