In the 1870s, thousands of people poured into the mining town of Deadwood Gulch in the Black Hills of South Dakota.
Some of those people are still famous today.
"Calamity Jane" - known throughout the world as the gun-slinging, bar and brothel owner .
Wyatt Earp - the most dangerous of all the gun-slinging US Marshals.
Wild Bill Hickok, a man whose biographers claimed killed only six people in gunfights.
And there was another person...
A man whose identity was a mystery until current-day investigators got to work...
Their trail involved forensic dentistry, genealogy, and, good, old-fashioned detective work to trace the identity of an unknown man dead for over one-hundred-and-twenty years.

Dead men do tell tales in this incredible investigation into a skeleton from the gun-slinging, Wild West found in a suburban backyard.
