Who says the Clovis people disappeared? Simply because they stopped using a specific tool doesn't necessarily mean they vanished. They just moved along, adapted to the new world and changed tools as the needs came up. The needs for the larger Clovis style points just wasn't there anymore but a lighter faster atlatl throwing smaller darts at higher speeds may have been just the ticket. I knap points the same way they did using only antler, bone and stone and I can tell you right now the Clovis is if not the, one of the most difficult points to produce. I would have stopped using it the first chance I got. Here's a few I made.

Here's one I found in my front yard:


A lifetime of looking has yielded only three complete Clovis points, along with a good assortment of heart breakers.

How many Clovis Points constitute an arsenal?
