    In the winter of 1992, a construction crew in San Diego, California started cutting into the rocks that flanked the State 54 Highway, in a bid to widen the road. Those rocks hailed from the Pleistocene period and were rich in Ice Age fossils, so scientists from the San Diego Museum of Natural History accompanied the crew to recover whatever they unearthed. Among bits of horse, camel, dire wolf, and ground sloth, they found the remains of a single mastodon-an extinct mammoth-like animal. “And we noticed there was something different about it,” says Thomas Deméré, who was part of the team.Based on several lines of evidence-the way the bones are broken, the way they lay, the presence of large stones that show curious patterns of wear and are out-of-place in the surrounding sediment-the team think that early humans used rocks to hammer their way into the mastodon’s bones. That wouldn’t have been contentious in itself, but the team also claims that the bones from the “Cerruti Mastodon” are 130,000 years old. That would push back the earliest archaeological evidence for humans in North America by a whopping 115,000 years.
    Edit: This article was take from the Atlantic and it's about the article written in "Nature". It destroys "clovis first" dogma entirely and that's why they didn't publish it for 20 years as this occurred in the early 1990's. Let's be honest about something. If they're lying about this what else are they lying about? People have been here in the Americas far longer than they are letting on. Why would they want to cover that up? That's the real question.

      I learned the hard way, that I had been trained to make woodland and archaic points, while the paleo need to be thicker to get through the thick hides. Once I began to leave the points thicker, the shattering stopped. --Also by using indirect percussion on the flutes made for better success. and the key is preparation on the on the bottom strike area & creating channel flakes.

    Clovis and Folsom points are highly sought after by collectors. Clovis points have been found all over North America. I found my first spear point when I was very young, been hooked on precolumbian artifacts and way of life ever since. Ive found dozens of points since that time that range Mississippian and Woodland period points to early archaic and even a few paleo points and tools that are very old. Relic and artifact collecting is very popular in the US especially in the southeast where you can find native american artifacts laying in farm fields.

Or that it was just well maintained? IDK this guy is a constant string of bad critical thinking. Like saying that finding clovis points all over america indicates that their society was in all those places. Isn't it far more likely that they just traded the points with many different tribes, who then may have traded them with others? Or that the skill was more widespread across multiple cultures than we assume?

As with anything in archeology it's impossible to be certain as to the motivations of the people who made these sites, but it does suggest the points held ceremonial value.
      It's not entirely clear in this clip, but "Clovis culture" is what is known as an archeological culture, that is it is defined by a common set of artifacts. There is an active debate in archeology whether or not shared material culture is indicative of shared culture more generally, particularly when only a small fraction of items are expected to be preserved to present day. Not sure what Flores believes, but it is normal to discuss the wide range of the Clovis archeological culture while remaining skeptical that there was a uniform culture across that range.

    The discovery of the Clovis people and the Folsom people not only revolutionized our understanding of North American history, but also revealed the incredible ingenuity and skill of these early human populations. Their unique fluted points, made from high-quality flint and obsidian, were not only functional tools but also artistic expressions of their culture. It's fascinating to learn that these early Americans, who lived thousands of years ago, had such a deep understanding of their environment and were able to create complex tools that are still admired today. The fact that they spread throughout the continent, from the Southeast to New England, shows the resilience and adaptability of these ancient peoples. The Clovis people's story is a testament to the rich and diverse history of North America, and it reminds us that there is still so much to learn about our ancient ancestors.

There is one spot where stone nappers would either gather together to work or generations of nappers worked alone, but for many many years, because there are a lot of discarded chips, and half arrow/spear heads/knife blades, where some people had started a project but the the arrowhead broke before completion so was left, discarded as trash.

    The most important and distinctive characteristic of Solutrean lithic techniques is the bifacial percussion-flaked points present in most Solutrean artifacts. This characteristic provides the primary foundation for evidence in support of the Hypothesis, as Solutrean and Clovis points share this commonality. The Clovis culture is a prehistoric Paleoamerican culture, named for distinct stone tools found near Clovis, New Mexico. When observed, both of these tools share common aesthetic features which have led to the speculation that Clovis points derived from Solutrean techniques.[12]

    The Gault Archaeology Site is very close to Austin TX and has one of the largest (if not THE largest) collection of Clovis points in North America. After they excavated pits like 30+ feet deep, they stopped finding clovis points. But they kept digging, through several layers of "sterile" soil, and eventually came across a collection of PRE-Clovis points.... indicating that the makers of Clovis points were not the "original" culture of North America, as this video's title suggests. You guys should have the head of the Gault site on your show. He is a great presenter and could clarify some of these misconceptions about Clovis being a unified culture. Most likely many, many different cultures through tool technology gradually spread.

      It's hard not to laugh at the conventional history of north America. Genetic evidence shows that people have made many distinct migrations in boats over the last 70k years, yet many historians still cling to the ice bridge hypothesis, even though there are species of monkeys in south America that arent found ANYWHERE in north or central america.

    A Smithsonian article about the Clovis people stated they likely ceossed a giant landsheet/bridge from SW France to the american continent. This was an important distinction because prior to that point, the consensus was that humans crossed from asia. In fact, the clovis people were in the SE united states and migrated from E to W....not W to E or N to S.

      I have land with 3 large playa lakes that have once or twice in my lifetime run together. They're situated on the grass prairie 45-50 miles east of Clovis, NM & same distance west of Palo Duro Canyon. My dad and I walked those pastures where we found shallow firepits with traces of charcoal and multiple arrowheads nearby. Curious because there were no trees for 150 yrs, except maybe a cotton wood or two within 30 miles of the location.
      Geologist say our 3 playa lakes once covered around 600 acres and would have been a popular campsite for indigs moving from NM to Palo Duro to overwinter in the canyon.

    South Carolina is home to the Topper Site where Clovis people lived. We hold a lot of ancient history of the natives but it’s either stuck in some universities labs or destroyed. It’s still dug in today, clothing and bone fragments have been found there dating back before 12,000 years ago.

      @@moonknight4053 What textbooks and historians refer to as “Native Americans” were not Native. They were only seen that way when Europeans (Spanish in SC first then French) arrived. They inhabited the land so they were seen as the native people. Though tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of years prior the Clovis people inhabited North America. They spread from Texas to the Carolinas and from Florida to southern Virginia. They are what we think of when we think of native Americans. Simple people. Far simpler than NA’s and they were an extremly simple people. Yes they fought and killed etc etc that’s humans. We’re tribal. Though what killed the Clovis is not certain. Famine? Pillaging? Diseases from Africa (Mansa Musa sent many ships West from West Africa in the late 1300s) or the more “conspiracy loon” theory that I myself would agree with just on anatomy and physical features that it was probably sea nomads or some other Asian-pacific group(s) that came from the West Coast and met Clovis peoples somewhere along the way and bred. Creating native Americans. Those people died out and left their offspring who dominated NA until the 1800s. There are artifacts found in New Mexico that resemble Asians that are tens of thousands of years old… there are mounds depicting dragons in the south eastern US….. hmmm 🤔

    I wonder if there is a simpler explanation for the caches of clovis blades. The historian explained that there were areas of higher quality,harder out rops of flint and obsidian that the Clovis people would return to for the material. If I were in that situation I would spend some time there knapping a good supply of blades that I could take with me rather than taking the extra weight of unknapped material with me. The extra I would keep the extra blades in a cache,probably hidden,and use them as my current blades broke,or even trade some of them.
