Revolutionary War hero Casimir Pulaski's skeleton held a surprise for anthropologists examining it.
Portrait of Count Casimir Pulaski, American and Polish hero of independence, mortally wounded at the Battle of Savannah, Georgia, on October 10, 1779.Revolutionary War hero and"father of the American cavalry" Casimir Pulaski gained fame when he saved George Washington's life and became a general in the Continental Army. Along with Alexander Hamilton and the Marquis de Lafayette, Pulaski was an immigrant who fought for freedom in both his home country and his adopted one.
Even though the first"Pulaski Identification Committee" came up short on the DNA front, their osteological findings were intriguing. A visitor views the 54-foot monument honoring Brig. Gen. Casimir Pulaski on Monterey Square in Savannah, Georgia. Bones were exhumed from the monument and tested recently.
Intersex wasn't an explanation that the previous team had hit on, Estabrook explains, because"we are just now beginning to approach a more nuanced understanding of the differences between the concept of biological sex as developmental and genetic in its basis, and separable from the concept of gender."
