      Noah's Flood. This explains the "black mats" in Texas, The sediments in Delmarva, the frozen Mammoths in a lot of places. It happened 2100 before Christ but C14 dates place it at 12,800 to11,600 Cal BP. Seven Bison and Seven Camels got off the arc and 2 of the bison came back to America across Beringia, look at the Genetic bison profile. A remnant of the "Clovis People came back to America after the flood, thus the genetic bottleneck, and the end of fluted points!

      @user-gw2bi9xr7e I would only disagree with this cuz of the technology level. The pre flood people had access to metallurgy and iron making. I would guess they were here before the migration from Asia. But before the flood us stretching it unless they were the builders of the zigarats and structures found throughout the americas

      Clovis is not a culture. Clovis is a technology. No affirmed Clovis human remains have ever been found. See my other comment.
      The points and caches have been found 85% east of the Mississippi River, NOT out west. But never humans remains with them.
      Clovis dated finds ended at 12,800 years ago. That was exactly the time of the Younger Dryas. And for over 1,000 years NO REMAINS OF ANY HUMANS OF ANY CULTURE have been found in the Americas. Something happened. The humans in America were wiped out, and OTHERS arrived to replace them. IOW, there were (at least) TWO influxes of humans in America before the start of the Holocene at ~10,000 years ago.
      That point was ALSO the time when the mammoths disappeared. Mammoths and Clovis disappeared at the same time. And so did more than 30 other large mammals in N America. And over 200 large mammals around the world. And the arkies are pretty much completely in the dark as to what happened.
      Literally, your guess is as good as theirs.

    About a 10 minute drive from where I live in upstate New York, there's ancient ruins of stone buildings. The native americans in this area say the structures were already there when they came into the area, and was beyong their skill to make even when Europeans arrived. and unfortunately, no one has bothered to try to figure out who made them. Wonder if it could have been a part of the clovis culture.

    A well-presented video, thanks
    ...although scattered with some out-of-date taking points: While there is currently insufficient data to make fully definitive statements at this time what can be reasonably said is as follows:
    -The first people in the Americas arrived at the very least 20-30k ago. That date may be far older but unambiguous evidence is currently lacking.
    -There is absolutely no evidence those people contributed genetically to today's 'indigenous' populations. ie: They were replaced by later 'invaders'.
    -Those 'invaders' seem to have been the Clovis people, arriving 11-14k ago. They in turn contributed somewhat to today's 'indigenous' populations.
    -'Clovis' or relatives seem to mostly arise from a population isolated in what was once Beringia. In turn arriving from East Asia.
    -20-14k ago? Currently debated evidence. Maybe other pre-Clovis groups arrived, maybe nobody else post 20-30k ago.
    -Before the 30-20k arrivals..? Currently anybody's guess, but not unreasonable. There may have been 'pre-Sapiens' people 120k ago. (iffy)
    -No, it doesn't look like the Solutrean hypothesis holds any water at this point - the first 'Europeans' arrived in semi-historical times.
    Modern South America would seem to be primarily populated by decedents from North America, then later Europe + Africa.
    -However there is seeming evidence of populations arriving from the Pacific very much earlier, along with earlier migrations from the North.
    Of course much of the above is subject to scientific re-evaluation in the light of new evidence as it crops up - that is the scientific method.
    In short.
    Both North and South America have seen waves of human populations arriving and then being (largely) replaced by those following for possibly well over 100k years. Certainly for the last 20-30k years, long before Clovis the presumed major ancestors of 'indigenous' North Americans. The current inhabitants of the Americas are no more than the latest groups to arrive and displace those who went before, going back a very long time.
    As Australian aboriginal peoples might say "Arguing over who owns the land is like fleas arguing over who owns the dog."

Man hasn’t been here 120,000+ years, or there’d be a lot more evidence. I doubt my comment gets seen. I’ll be surprised if the algorithm allows it.

    Regarding the Clovis culture - as I understand it, there is some debate as to the origins of the Clovis culture, as it has been proposed that they may have been an off- shoot of the Solutrean culture from France, circa 17,000 B.C., due to the close resemblance of both cultures' tool kits ! It has been posited (with considerable heated debate) that the Solutreans may have crossed the Atlantic in small, primitive boats, following (and possibly camping/hunting/fishing from) the southern edge of the ice sheet !

    Clovis people were the best hunters; The quality of their spear points prove it.

    There were mastodon bones with animals carved on them found in Florida. They suggest that people were in Florida when those animals were alive, and they were supposed to be extinct before people got to that part of the world.
    What happened to the "Clovis" people? Their descendants are still here. The curious thing to me is that they changed the way they made their tools. Why?

      They assimilated with other people adopting life styles & tools. There was a drastic change to N. America landscape when those glaciers completely collapsed. People were already in N. America when ice sheets were present (there was 2 with a narrow corridor). The glaciers also dictate climate conditions.

      @comfortablynumb9342 9 месяцев назад

      @@JJ-fq4nl I agree that they assimilated. I'm curious about why they changed the style of their points and tools. The kind with little protrusions on the back look like they'd be easier to attach to an arrow or spear, and the attachment should be stronger I would think. Those long thin points they made are beautiful pieces of work. Is it possible that they changed the type of points when they started using bows and arrows? My understanding is that the first Native Americans didn't use bows and arrows, just atlatles. Maybe when bows came along they started making points for longer distance?

  • @davidletasi3322
    @davidletasi3322 3 месяца назад

    They never disappeared. Their lithic projectile point technology changed. Archeologists determine traditions by technology markers, not genetic longevity. Once they discontinue, making traditional Clovis point Archeologists consider them a different culture. As game availability changed from specie extinction, this could have driven change in projectile type morphology. Certainly, they were different generations but genetically related. In fact, two different artifact styles in context may even lead some archeologists to believe that two distinct "people" co habited the same habitat. It's just as likely there was one population using more than one technology varient. Recently, even Clovis points are now believed by some archeologists to have been used as knives rather than spear points. In several Clovis sites, occasionally found bone and ivory needle or pins could have easily been used to tip spears rather than flint projectiles. Using bone or ivory virtually unlimited access as they were primarily a hunting tradition. This would conserve limited lithic resources that they seem to select for color and quality.

The “facts” are not so much wrong as just randomly made up to sound like they know what they’re talking about. Pretty much nothing in here is accurate or close to correct. I would honestly not be surprised if it actually was a lazy eighth grader who did this video. Where do you start? To pick a couple, no, the points found at Clovis were not made of the bones of prehistoric animal. Their stone points that were used to kill the animals. And Fin del Mundo does mean the end of the world because it’s a site in Tierra Del Fuego at the tip of South America, not Sonora, which is in Mexico. And for one scene of migrating, Clovis people, they show Indians on horseback. Horses came to N America with the Spanish well after 1500.

The white man was the first to step foot on the moon over 50 years ago.

    The Anzick kid IS the only so-called Clovis human remains - BUT IT IS NOT CLOVIS.
    Arkies have lowered their standards on approval of this skeleton as Clovis. Why? Because they only call it Clovis because it was found kind of close to a Clovis cache of points and tools. AJD THEY HAVE WANTED TO FIND CLOVIS PEOPLE THEMSELVES FOR ALMOST 100 YEARS AND STILL HAVE NONE. The kid was found close to, the tools, but the connection with the tools WAS NEVER even close to being established with any certainty at all. I have in my possession documents written and signed by the actual finders and the first arkie connected with this find. And they all say that non-archaeologists dug up the body and removed it before any arkie could determine its provenance. In every other case I have ever heard of in decades, such a desecration would SPECIFICALLY be determined to not be provable. So the Anzick kid, carbon dated to 12,600 years ago (200 years after the Clovis period), WAS NOT CLOVIS BY ANY ARCHAEOLOGICAL STANDARDS.
