Those people hating on your graham Hancock videos should watch this one as well because it demonstrates that archaeology is always advancing and accepting new evidence/data. Hancock supporters seem to think that there’s some archaeology bible written 100 years ago that every archaeologist commits to memory and never deviates from.
The megafauna went extinct due to lots of factors working together. Hunting them didn’t help, but things like climate change are likely much more important. The cause of the Younger Dryas is hard to say, likely change in major weather patterns (like Jet Stream). It wasn’t a comet.

That is so true! That's exactly why I did this video, but it will be lost on them.
Hi there, I am an archeology student in London who don't have any basics about archeology. Your videos are so helpful for me in my studies.
I’m so glad. That’s exactly what they are for! If you have any specific questions, drop them here and I’ll do a video.
If I remember, the term "Clovis" is defined by that particular type of point manufacture.
Are the other artifacts associated with that culture?
The point is the biggie. there are other artifacts, but they aren't nearly as diagnostic of the time (pretty basic looking).
Great Channel!
Thanks! Simple notes like this make me feel like it’s all worth it. This came at the right time.
Did the extinction of mega fauna in North America occur because of the Clovis peoples use of spears and arrows?
What caused the Younger Dryas?
