A BBC documentary on the Ice Age is being filmed this weekend in Saltville, Va., and will feature an expert on the topic from East Tennessee State University.
Blaine Schubert, director of the Don Sundquist Center of Excellence in Paleontology at ETSU and faculty member in the department of geosciences, will provide information on the Ice Age to BBC. Schubert is currently heading a dig at the Ice Age fossil site in Saltville.
“It’s one of my areas of specialty and, you know, the site here at Saltville is one of the later Ice Age sites. It dates to between about 30,000 and 10,000 years old,” Schubert said.
