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.
A well-presented video, thanks ...although scattered with some out-of-date taking points: While there is currently insufficient data to make fully definitive statements at this time what can be reasonably said is as follows: -The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."
Think again on the Solutrean thing. I’ll bet if solutrean was South African few would be batting an eyelid. The idea is recent just like that of Clovis. 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.
@@HowardArnold-be9ly I helped excavate a 58k to 62k year old horse in a layer of unbroken sandstone out west the summer and fall before last. Plastered it up and sent it on its way with the Paleo crew. A month later archaeologists were excavating a fire pit and the remains of two humans about 17 feet below it. The humans were dated to 8k and paleo and arch didn't even cross notes or talk about it. This kind of thing isn't uncommon either. I've seen a lot of cases like it over the years.
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.

YDB impact took out the Clovis people and the majority of megamammals found in North America at the time. The environmental catastrophe that followed lasted centuries.
Good comment. In time we may know. Not now. There is a small group of scientists who dispute the YDB impact, but the skeptics' work is sloppy. Yet the majority of academia accepts the skeptics' work as better than the CRG's massive quantity of forensic-type lab work at the microscopic scale. That majority of academia is wrong.
What we do know is that about 12800 YA global temperatures plummeted, for some reason, large animals that had survived multiple glacial periods, disappeared at the same time..
Loved this! Went down a rabbit hole looking through my ancestry, and wound up here! I adore history. All history. And this rabbit hole will keep me busy for years! Thank you, well done👏👏👏
I believe Clovis points were designed with a flute to assist in killing megafauna. The flute aids in splitting the shaft of the spear being hammered in to reach vital areas. Let's assume the people using Clovis technology aren't stupid and just as smart as we are today, but living in those times. Beavers leaves sections of logs when the shift is over, I've collected half a dozen as Yuletide logs, about a foot in diameter and almost two feet long. Beavers cut wood to fit what is needed, I've seen very small ones, like three inches by six. If you flatten the surfaces of such a large enough log, just like it was cut with a chain saw, you can heat rocks of equal size to bore a hole thru it to mount let's say four inch branches, two men can use an handles. You can even make a four man hammer. Splitting the shaft while driving the spear in is like using a hollow point bullet, it provides more paths for destroying vital parts. Once the megafauna disappeared, the usefulness of the Clovis point died with them.
No, the people were named after the town of Clovis, New Mexico, as the archeologists that made the discovery there wanted to go to the nearest town to get a beer after digging all day and that town was Clovis, so the name was attached to the people/culture.
An impact or or atmospheric explosion probably did this. Bits of the Canadian Shield have been found at the Topper site in SC and the channel islands off the CA coast. The dating of this material corresponds exactly to the disappearance of the Clovis people, Wooly Mammoths and Sabertooth Tigers. Something to think about....
That by which they are identified. Mating and migrating is a large part of what Mankind does. Clovis was obviously strengthened and enriched by diverse populations. Sound familiar?🤣
Clovis were supposed to come from Siberia. There has never been found any Clovis projectiles in Siberia. They find Clovis projectiles in Spain and France that date back to about 30000 years.
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.
@@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?
Ii live in Portales. About 9 miles from the site. I went a long while ago and during the walk, found an authentic Arrowhead. I showed the museum worker and they took it from me and wouldn't let me have 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. They lived in the valleys where the best hunting was, and when the Ice Age ended suddenly, the immense flooding got them extinct the very way so may animals got extinct at that time.
The Clovis “people” were not a homogeneous group. They simply shared a technology (the Clovis point) and that’s what they had in common with each other. Today we can be termed as the “cellphone people” because that’s the technology we share with a large percentage of the world. But the people didn’t go anywhere, the technology changed.
Where’d they go?? Where’d your great grandparents go! Most of their descendants are/were herded into reservations and live there yet. I’m surprised you didn’t know that.
It's highly doubtful if Clovis was an original people to the Americas. In fact it was likely as much or more time passed between the first people in the Americas and Clovis as between us today and Clovis.
Is it possible they integrated with native Americans and also breeding together? When did the first Native Americans arrive in North America or anywhere else on the planet?
Hate to be the bearer of bad news but there was an “extinction level event”. Those few that made it through had to adapt to survive. We’re overdue for another ELE….
They stayed on the continent of America. And they evolved into present day Native Americans!!! You will never say or claim. That the first people in Europe disappeared. You know they evolved into today's Europeans!
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.
Clovis people did not "vanish", their tools changed when the megafauna were wiped out. It's like saying that Europeans vanished because they switched from using horses to using motor vehicles.
This is the equivalent to a junior high book report when the lazy kid didn’t read the book or do the assignment but had to stand in front of the class and act like he did. 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. So please apply the same degree of laughable skepticism to the nonsense factoids about what happened to the closest people, etc. etc. do yourself a favor any when watching this and read a little or watch a little from an actual archaeologist or historian and wipe this nonsense out of your
those post-Columbian indian tribes are not the "paleo-indians" most of which arrived after 200 BCE. The tribal names we are familar with are the johnny come lately peoples from the diaspera of north central asian after 200BCE. some groups moving to to the westy in europe some moving eastern into the Americas.
Question: Why Did the Clovis People Mysteriously Vanish? Answer: They hunted all the American megafauna to extinction, and there was no longer a need for their Clovis hunting technology.
This narration with its speaking down to the viewer, is pretty insulting and shame on this production. Also, this tells us that the Anzick kid found in Montana was Clovis. 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. SHAME ON THIS PRODUCTION. SHAME ON ARCHAEOLOGISTS WHO KEEP CLAIMING THE ANZICK KID WAS CLOVIS.
There was no Clovis culture! Those artifacts were the result of widespread trading by numerous native groups who learned to make them in the same manner. Duh.
This word "indigenous" is too overused. As far as humanity is concerned, the word "indigenous" is an extremely unwelcome one. Nobody will ever know precisely who---race or human species----was the first on either North American or South American continents. The white man was the first to step foot on the moon over 50 years ago. Just because the "White Man" was the first to step foot on the moon, does not make the "White Race" the owners of the moon, let alone indigenous to it.
What do you think happened to the Clovis people?
They didn't go anywhere. They either adapted or new cultures blended in with them.
They drank themselves to oblivion
War, famine, plague. History repeats this pattern over and over.

not even close to the first NA people.
I found a point that looked like a clovis point in N. C. is it a N. C. point?😅
Hubo un cambio en la tecnología de casa.....no desaparecieron......cambiaron su tecnología por el cambio de presas para cazar
How you going to tell the Iroquois are history of ancient times your numbers off way off
I’m going to vanish. I figure a few years left.
Don’t do it @scottjohnston9225
Thanks for the insightful information on white sands. Kinda throughs a gear into the works don’t it.😅
just cultural development, the same can be seen in europe
Too many generalities. Most statements uttered and video scenes can apply to do many ancient cultures.
Very disappointed.
Gathering was far more the earliest way of life not hunting.
They went with Noah flood .
so thats the original land of oros.
Okay - they were the first - RIGHT after the Vikings of Course !
The clovis people are mixed into native American/ mexican DNA.
Maybe bc they killed off all their favorite prey anmals
They were Stomped by Gomphotheres!
This narration with its speaking down to the viewer, is pretty insulting and shame on this production.
Also, this tells us that the Anzick kid found in Montana was Clovis.
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.
SHAME ON THIS PRODUCTION.
SHAME ON ARCHAEOLOGISTS WHO KEEP CLAIMING THE ANZICK KID WAS CLOVIS.
There was no Clovis culture! Those artifacts were the result of widespread trading by numerous native groups who learned to make them in the same manner. Duh.
But they've literally found a skeleton of a clovis child and sequenced its genome
This word "indigenous" is too overused. As far as humanity is concerned, the word "indigenous" is an extremely unwelcome one. Nobody will ever know precisely who---race or human species----was the first on either North American or South American continents. The white man was the first to step foot on the moon over 50 years ago. Just because the "White Man" was the first to step foot on the moon, does not make the "White Race" the owners of the moon, let alone indigenous to it.
Hollywood basement is not the moon
Stock footage and text to speech. Yuck.
Yes clovis could have been ancient europeanpeoplrc predating modern racial terms😮
This narrator (sythetic?) sounds like he 's speaking to a 5th grade class.
Nova
