tBritain's Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, speak with Oprah Winfrey in an interview that was broadcast in North America on March 7, 2021.
What are being described as “very old” human remains of a young adult — dating back more than 10,000 years — were found just metres away from Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s US$15-million, 18,000-square-foot mansion in Montecito, Calif.
Santa Barbara sheriff’s officials said the discovery was made at a metre’s depth while landscapers were doing construction last week on a road next to the couple’s estate.
Early findings by a forensic anthropologist indicate the bones could be those of the Chumash people, who lived in the area for nearly 11,000 years.

In 1901, a 127-acre reserve was established for the Chumash, which now houses 5,000 people.
Authorities are believed to be talking with the local Native American commission about the find.
The exclusive neighbourhood 145 kilometres north of Los Angeles is home to many celebrities, including including Oprah and Ellen DeGeneres.
