    Fox conducted excavations at Tabon Cave on Palawan Island in June and July 1962 where he discovered human fossil bones dated between 22,000-24,000 years old. As an anthropologist, Fox specialized in the discovery of human remains and artifacts. Scott, a historian, also discussed the Tabon Cave excavations but dated the human remains between 45,000-7,000 BC and did not participate in the excavations himself. While both discussed the findings at Tabon Cave, Fox directly excavated the site and dated his findings differently than Scott.
