Kentucky's Paleoindian Period: Flintknapping a Clovis Point

Описание к видео Kentucky's Paleoindian Period: Flintknapping a Clovis Point

We start our exploration of Kentucky's past in the Paleoindian period, the earliest period of human occupation in the state. The earliest archaeological culture in this area known to date is the Clovis culture. These ancestral Indigenous Americans mastered Kentucky's Ice Age landscape just before the Pleistocene-Holocene transition. They would have hunted both extinct and extant animals using spears or atlatl darts tipped with there distinctive style of flint projectile point, called a Clovis point. I use this video as an opportunity to discuss Kentucky Paleoindian Archaeology while I flintknap a replica of Clovis projectile point.
