They're saying stone points found at this 30,000 yo Siberian site have a similarity to Clovis points. Proof of the mighty Clovis hunter theory? Clovis points all date from 11,500 - 10,500 years ago. Solutrean tools & culture was 18,000 years ago.

The Bering land bridge 'traditionalists' have been getting their butts kicked in the last few years because the Clovis and Solutrean (Iberia) technology are the closest in style and shape.
That data point suggests that Clovis and Solutrean may have originated in Iberia and consequently suggests an Atlantic crossing.

This is the first 'hint' of Clovis in the Siberian region which supports the Bering Land Bridge theory.
