A new settlement has been discovered by researchers from the Hakai Institute, University of Victoria and local First Nations members, and it changes everything scientists thought they knew about early civilization in North America. The 14,000-year-old village contains artifacts that date all the way back to the Ice Age and is believed to be one of the oldest human settlements ever uncovered in North America. Its even suspected to be older than the Giza pyramids!
As IFL Science reports, the discovery lines up with the oral history of the Heiltsuk Nation. For generations, stories have been handed down that tell of an ancient coastal village. William Houston of Heiltsuk Nation told CTV News Vancouver Island:
To think about how these stories survived all of that, only to be supported by this archaeological evidence is just amazing.
Artifacts from the village were discovered on Triquet Island, approximately 310 miles northwest of Victoria, Canada.

If it is 14,000 years old, it is 10,000 years older than Stonehenge, but only about 9500 years older than the Pyramids. Can’t they do basic arithmetic?

Approxiamately 9,000 y.o. that is not related to American Indians. Details the lengths to which the fed gov went to try and bury the truth.
Bunch of “Hosers” eh?
...early civilization in North America
Probably not these particular folks.
This little island, Triquet Island, is on the west coast of Canada, about halfway between Seattle, Washington and Alaska.
The new Solutrean hypothesis posits Europeans travelled west to the East Coast of North America.
Solutrian Haplogroup R1 settled Eastern North America:
Asian Haplogroup Q settled western North America:
No, it said something was older than something we all knew was old.
You are reading way too much into this.
You lack the meaning of “oral history!”
Soul Trains ?
As many times as they told one part of the group, "If you do not stop barfing you can just get out and walk!"
Definitely Solutrean. I’m replicating some of their flint blades for a local university.
NO THEY WEREN'T!
As you pointed out years ago many things will come to light that will through a wrench into modern thinking about the past.
The more I read the more I come to the conclusion that none of this makes sense.
Yeah, those buckets can’t be more than a few years old!
By world-wide cataclysmic flood.
I’d post pictures of the blades but Free Republic seems to still be in the Ice Age when it comes to posting pictures. Of all the sites I frequent they’re the only one that requires some type of file sharing to post pictures.
Columbus was supposed to have gone to Ireland to obtain maps of the lands across the ocean.
Trust the oral histories
Apparently you are unaware of oral histories and teaditions
