Kennewick Man survived two major injuries during his life, including six broken ribs from blunt force trauma to the chest and an adversarial encounter with a spear. The resulting impact from the spear left a stone projectile point permanently lodged in Kennewick Man\u2019s pelvis for multiple years during his lifetime,&#8221; according to<a title=\"Smithsonian
