"At some remote time in the past, perhaps more than twelve thousand years ago, a single human being became the first person to see the Susquehanna River, the late York County-based archaeologist Barry Kent wrote. “He did not call it Susquehanna, nor did he stand in awe of its size and beauty. His people and their ancestors had seen and crossed many rivers of this new land.”
