Clovis cache

[Ron Kelley]

When the guy calls that thinning flake a flute he certainly doesn't gain my confidence.

I read all of that twice over. It's wishful thinking and what is the evidence?

They also state, at the very start of their paper “ By some key measures it is consistent with Clovis, but the case remains unproven.”

In their conclusions in the paper, the authors state: “Based on the entirety of the evidence, we strongly suspect, though unfortunately cannot confirm, that the Nelson cache is Clovis in age and affiliation”.

Ok, missed that part.

Wow Bret, that's quite a story. If only...

Hey Mike, I know they are not finished points. Reading one of the articles they mentioned the flute. I don't believe that's a flute.

great discovery ,i know this is a bit off the topic when i was young i would spend the summer working in my uncles apple orchard in wenatchee and when we were done for the day we would ride dirt bikes and our trail went right over where they found the wenatchee clovis cache years later , if i only knew what i know now.

I think they are saying clovis preforms, not finished yet.

[Ron Kelley]

The basal thinning flake doesn't look like a flute to me.

Taking no chances 😎

[flintguy]

I do think there is still some doubt if it was actually a clovis cache or not.

[Ron Kelley]

I have produced several biface caches but never one that large.

[Ron Kelley]

It's a great Cache find but why is that Clovis?

Still won’t click on a link huh Glen ? Might as well dive in with the rest of us, not so much malicious malware out there like it use to be Sir. The hackers aren’t looking to cripple your software so much as they are looking for info to make money. The malware gets in their way and they are into everyone’s devices .....
