Experimental Archaeology: Making a Middle Archaic Bone Pin with Stone Tools.
This wee project was inspired by the 1997 Richard Jefferies paper "Middle Archaic Bone Pins: Evidence of Mid-Holocene Regional-Scale Social Groups in the Southern Midwest." Much like bannerstones, these bone objects are elaborately decorative and have a very restricted region of use. The chronology of these artifacts has been evaluated by Andrew White in his "
Temporal Variation in Late Middle Archaic Bone Pins from 2003." These artifacts have been invoked to stretch our theoretical frameworks related to material manifestations of social identity.

    Sincere question. I was reading that a viking settlement has been confirmed to have existed for some time at L'Anse aux Meadows. Why wasn't this a factor in spreading diseases throughout the Americas like with the Spanish? I'd imagine the Vikings were a regular bunch of looting/raping/exploring mofos, so they had to have encountered some native Americans.

    Even if hypothetically Clovis were the descendants of Solutreans, 1200 years ago, and they were the ancestors of the Windover skeletons, there were people in America at least 23 thousand years ago, which predates the disappearance of the Solutreans in the first place, I also don't see that even if there was anomalous DNA in one of the skeletons, it would not be a big deal. Chances are some folks did get across the ice during the glacial maximum, folks hunting seals and other ice age sea fauna would have had the tools and knowledge to have done so, I'd be sort of surprised if none of them did, but a handful of seal hunters dropping in on an already well populated Turtle Island, are not a bid deal, and so far they don't seem to have left any DNA tracks behind, but there are populations in Asia that also don't seem to have left any traceable DNA in the present populations so the absence of DNA just proves if they did arrive they didn't make much of an impression with the local ladies. I'm much more intrigued by the Australasian DNA found in South America, to me that does indicate a likely non Beringian entrance to America.

    The genetics not matching can easily be explained. About 12,000 YBP north America saw massive flooding, the "black mat" layer of massive fires, and the extinction of fauna over ~100 lbs, including (but not limited to) mammoth, mastodon, giant ground sloth, camel, horse, saber toothed cat, short faced bear, and many others. It seems that such an extinction level event would have also wiped out people (who tend to be over ~100 lbs), especially if the depended on the hunting of prey animals that are also over 100 lbs in size. Then, in the years following, north America could easily have been repopulated by siberian and western eurasian peoples migrating across from the north west of north America. So, ancient stone tools buried in caches or left in caves could still be found, while the genetics would not exist in current populations. Either way, it's an interesting and thought provoking hypothesis. All good science comes from keeping an open mind, looking at new evidence, making new hypotheses, testing against evidence, "lather, rinse and repeat."

    • @NathanaelFosaaen
      @NathanaelFosaaen 9 днів тому

      This isn't a bad hypothesis in principle, but the fact that we have pre-Younger Dryas human DNA from Paisley Caves that is directly ancestral to modern Native American peoples demonstrates that no such human extinction event occurred, and the cultural continuity from the pleistocene through the holocene also demonstrates that no such extinction event happened for humans.

    So if the Solutrean "theory" is just so much BS....WHY, pray tell, have most of the Clovis points found, so far, been on the East Coast. One would think if they were developed by the "Asian immigrants" coming down from Siberia, we would see more of those points in the West. And so far, no such point technology has been found in the "jumping off" points in Siberia. "Oh"..these experts say....the Clovis points were developed "independently" from the point technology in Spain and France. Yeah.....Riiiiggghhht? And we should accept that as "expert" facts? And WHY, pray tell, do these anti-Solutrean nay sayers say its "Impossible" for people from southern France and Spain to navigate along the ice shelf in the North Atlantic, very likely in skin boats, but it is "HIGHLY likely" people from Siberia navigated along the shores of Alaska in skin boats because the opening in the glaciers had not developed until 13,000 years ago?

    Hancock is author and reporter and unfortunately for you and your stalled state of mind he has shown to be right more than Pfizer was about the pandemic.

    Here's a thought. How many skeletal remains of Giants have been found in North America? Okay, how many Clovis people skeletons have been found in North America? Okay, we have Clovis points. What are the main characteristics of Clovis points?

      Yes, there were clovis points found with the skeleton. And giants aren't real.

      @@NathanaelFosaaen that's odd. I was under the impression that the "Clovis" skeleton was that of a child. And that it was only considered Clovis because of the carbon-14 dating. Also, what you and I are calling Giants may not be the same thing. I'm talking about particularly large skeletons. Something in the range of 6 and 1/2 or 7 ft. And, have you read what Abraham Lincoln said in a speech at Niagara falls
