So...the Clovis site in Texas was the Garden of Eden? I always knew that Texas was great, but God’s favorite spot on earth? I guess that should have been obvious. :)

What was so special about that one location for people to loose their much needed hunting tools over a span of several thousand years?
Flash flooding like we just had?

They hadn’t yet invented pockets.
Or maybe they’d just invented beer?

That is the real mystery!

I've been told the site of the Garden of Eden is along the Tigris/Euphrates River in Northern Syria.
But, Texas is God's country.

I’ve responded to this same subject a couple of time now, once on this forum. What we’re looking at is what many of us collectors and knappers call a Hell Gap, not pre Clovis! It’s just one of the many style points they produced during the Paleo Period. Knappers of that period produced a wide variety of points with much of it determined by the quality of the material they were working. To think that an experience knapper would only make one style point is rather amusing since we see many times where tools were knapped for specific needs

Exactly!
If they used “carbon dating”, that would mean the stone is “15,000 years old”, unless the people had a “use by” date stamped on the tool itself.
I guess the archaeologists get their jollies over things like this, but to me, it’s meaningless.
