    Thank you. Footprints in N. M. has changed paradigm of First Americans. One route started from the Aleutians to mainland US, then to S.A. There’s no reason physically to exclude Kelp Highway route from Hokkaido to Beringia, as no archaeological evidence are in far east Siberia.

    my family owned most of the lots at the south end of the lake its got a ton of sand in those lots and some obsidian out cropping s we found tons of arrow heads as kids in the 60s and when my dad put the roads in and the water lines.

      Do you still have the arrowheads you found back then? They could be very helpful in regards to certain databases. I still have the arrowheads I found on our friends ranch and was able to provide some data to the state database.

      No dont have them it was years ago and there was so many we never thought they were anything special. I remember distinctly where the major outcropping was though I could drive right to it today or point it out on a map.. It was on someones private lot.

    Keep digging and we might find all kind s of things buryed farther down.San Diego has some site at 126.000 yrs mammoth kill site.

    wondering if you had done work at Sulphur Bank Mercury Mine. there is a midden rigth on the edge of the pit between clear lake and herman impoundment. because it is a controlled site it still maybe there. it was there in the early 2010's.

    fascinating. 33:42 borax lake wide stems are just like clovis with shoulders

    Your maps have modern sea levels , how much sea water was tied up in ice . It only makes sense that there was a lot more dry land with all that water tied up in ice . It is possible people just walked along the shore east to west

      Broadly speaking more than 300 feet lower at glacial maximum and possibly even more and quite prolonged, back to near present by 3000 BC. Google it, plenty of rough graphs available. For humans it would seem stable or changing minutely in a lifetime.

    I grew up on Sulphur Bank Road on Fire Road 3 and we used to spend all the 70s out there on borax Lake that's where we used to ride a dirt bikes and go out there and get stuck in our cars and go drinking I don't know borax Lake as good as anybody

    That fluted wide stem point is the strangest point I have ever seen. Such a shame the rodents destroyed the stratigraphy. There's literally a visible transition to the more expedient Clovis form when these people already had a well established point form. Not like Gault, where the pre-Clovis Gault assemblage has a distinct horizon between it and the subsequent Clovis. This would suggest there was a period where continuous use of Gault had ceased, whereas Borax/Clear Lake didn't experience that same cessation of human activity. Maybe a consequence of the maritime regulated weather in California? And thus didn't experience as much shock during the Younger Dryas event?
    Also didnt know about crescent/butterfly/comb "waterfowl" points. Modern partridge hunting arrow tips are a slug of steel with springy barbs, for blunt force trauma and tangling in the skin/feathers. It causes cardiac/respiratory arrest and the entanglement makes it easier to retrieve before it can hide. A bird that's gotten away into undergrowth or a cattail stand is wasted meat. I only knew of the Ojibwe method of stringing nets to catch ducks, but I don't personally know anyone who still uses that method.

    The inuit are the only people that came across the Bering strait. The Inuit are descendants of the Ainu of japan. Clovis were the Ojibwe peoples. The clovis were not first people of North America. The Ojibwe say they came from the east. Which makes sense if you follow the haploid groups. Haploid Q came from west side of south America in the Americas. Another group was in the west of South America in Brasil at the same time.

    Can archeologists just admit the reason why the Solutrean hypothesis can't be explored is because they would be deemed racist. Now we can get back to the Pacific coastal route which so far lacks any evidence.

    • @Paleoman
      @Paleoman Рік тому

      DNA refuted the solutrean hypothesis. Rip Dennis but the dna data from the skeleton in the mexican cave blew that hypothesis out of the water.

    • @keithtinkler4073
      @keithtinkler4073 Рік тому +2

      The evidence is likely several hundred feet deep in the ocean currently.

    • @PremiumWater
      @PremiumWater Рік тому +2

      Sorry it did not. The DNA evidence really doesn't prove anything. Additionally, the body that they need is about 8,000 years older than what was found and they would also need another body from Europe as well from the same period.

    As with other archaeological youtube channels Zoom is a horribly annoying Boomer platform. All the lag, and audio distortion ruins the presentation. Hire a damn tech for these and delete ZOOM!!! thumbs down, and lost watch time for this boomer assed crap
