"There is(3)Cook in the Australian Museum," museum collection manager Jude Philip said not long ago in announcing the DNA evidence that the arrow was not made of Cook’s bone.

In the 1890s the arrow was given to the Australian Museum and the legend continued(10)it came face-to-face with science. DNA testing by laboratories in Australia and New Zealand revealed the arrow was not made of Cook’s bone but was more(11)made of animal bone, said Philp. However, Cook’s fans(12)to give up hope that one Cook legend will prove true and that part of his remains will still be uncovered. As they say there is evidence not all of Cook’s body was(13)at sea in 1779. "On this occasion technology has won," said Cliff Thornton, president of the Captain Cook Society, in a(14)from Britain. "But I am(15)that one of these days...one of the Cook legends will prove to be time and it will happen one day."
