I feel like they omitted the most fascinating part of the story...

The establishment archeologists have a difficult time letting go of the Clovis assumptions.

I knew you would spot this article. It’s a good one! Still makes me think what former civilizations existed around that time that would have been covered up when the sea levels returned to normal.

Close to the ancient footprints was an ancient note warning about global freezing.

I saw this on the bbc show iceage something or other and it was made a few years ago. Why don”t they tell when this discovery was made.

"15,000 BP"

What is BP? (Before Present?)

Exciting discovery, but at least one incongruity...

People walking around with bare feet during the glacial maximum?

Downtown Seattle had more than a half mile of ice on top of it 23,000 years ago.

By latitude, White Sands National Park is just 1,200 miles south of Seattle.

Besides the temperature, the last ice age reduced rain fall across the entire world. I have to wonder why White Sands had more standing water 23,000 years ago than it has today.
