But...but political correctness says that during that era of 10,000 + years ago, there’s not supposed to be any civilization there!!!

Seize that site, it is a sacred burial mound!Keep those rasis white men out!

Atlatl points similar to the Plainview and it’s variants found here. Very common for them to break in that area.

It’s Seattle. They’re hunting down the owner to make an arrest for possession of a deadly weapon.

The sites probably went out of business because of the high minimum wage.

I have been on sites in Delaware and Vermont, both have tool users in the 10-13 thousand year range.

The Vermont sites show tool making at three sites, first to make slabs, then to shape for various types of tools and a third site to sharpen. This infers civilization, trade....

A recent find at a existing site, that continues to be unearthed, in the Mojave desert goes back approximately 12,000 years.

Well, after close examination, I would have to say that these were definitely made by people from Washington......D.C..
They are the only people who would make a “projectile point” with no point.
