People have lived in Kansas for thousands of years, so it should come as no surprise that there have been some major archaeological sites in Kansas. From lost cities to mysterious skeletal remains, just about everything possible has been found in the Sunflower State, and we’re sure there will be even more discoveries in the future, but one of the strangest finds occurred over a century ago. Have you ever heard of the Lansing Man? This discovery is no longer in the headlines today, and even now, it remains shrouded in mystery, but this is a fascinating story from Kansas history that we don’t think should be forgotten.
