Alfred Russel Wallace
peopling of the Americas. Steen- McIntyre and her colleagues tried to independently publish their re- port but experienced difficulty in doing so. Steen-McIntyre wrote in a letter (March 29, 1979) to H. J. Fullbright, an editor of a book in which her report was supposed to be published (but never was): “Ar- chaeologists are in a considerable uproar about Hueyatlaco—they refuse even to consider it. I’ve learned from second hand sources that I am considered by various members of the profession to be (1) incompetent, (2) a news monger, (3) an opportunist, (4) dishonest, (5) a fool.”
Eventually her paper was pub- lished in a geological publication. Steen-McIntyre wrote in a letter to one of the editors (Steven Porter, 8 February 1980): “The ms [manuscript] I’d like to submit gives the geologic evidence. It’s pretty clear cut, and if it weren’t for the fact a lot of anthropology textbooks would have to be re- written, I don’t think we would have had any problems getting the archaeologists to accept it. As it is, no anthro journal will touch it with a ten foot pole.”
A few years ago, a scholar was putting together a collection of es- says about Alfred Russel Wallace, who, along with Darwin, was the cofounder of the theory of evolu-
tion by natural selection. Wallace was also involved in research into the paranormal. Darwin did not ap- prove of his involvement in such things. In my book Human Devolution, I have a chapter about Wallace’s research into the paranormal. The scholar invited me to submit an essay based on that chapter to be included in his book. I submitted the essay to him, but it did not wind up in the book because of the ob- jections of the editor from the academic publishing company that was going to bring out the book. The editor objected to my reputation as a maverick re- searcher with non-mainstream ideas.
One thing I like about Doug Kenyon is that he gives me complete freedom to choose my topics for my column. There is no knowledge filtering going on here. The words you see are mine, unedited, and unchanged.
Recently, I put together 49 of my Atlantis Rising columns in a book called The Forbidden Archeolo- gist. What I hope to do is give people who are not al- ready readers of Atlantis Rising the chance to see the columns, with no knowledge filtering.

• Trapped Mars Rover Finds Evidence of Subsurface Water
The ground where NASA’s Mars Exploration Rover Spirit became stuck last year holds evidence that water, perhaps as snow melt, trickled into the subsurface fairly recently and on a continuing basis.

• One-Way Trip to Mars Could Kick-Start Colonization
The vast plains of Mars may be the most promising place be- yond Earth for human coloni- zation, but is it enough for a one-way trip to the red planet? Two researchers seem to think so.
