What is the big deal about “Clovis” people?

“and an extinct peccary—a pig-like animal...”

Pig men!

Oh, and all that barbecuing? They single-handedly caused global warming and ended the glacial age.

I checked the article to see what season they spent in Michigan. It was summer. Did the Clovis people have canoes? That would make the trip easier.

From the article:

Nash thinks that some of the Clovis travelers may have wintered in central Indiana and summered at Michigan’s Belson site, while others may have migrated between western Kentucky and central Indiana.
