No. Mainstream archaeology has gone off the rails. They're letting identity politics taint their ability to reconstruct the past. Native American myths are treated as scientific truths. And, they no longer accept that sex is binary.

It was actually considered odd and even wrong at the time, which is why they lied about her age to the preacher. The marriage made the national news and, fortunately, led to changes in marriage laws. But, to portray this as the norm in 1930s America isn't really accurate.

I thought this myth was dead. A great book on this topic and the PC culture behind it is Mary Lefkowitz's "Not Out Of Africa: How "Afrocentrism" Became An Excuse To Teach Myth As History".
