Pre-Clovis at Lamb Springs?
Listeros,
Archaeologists at the Archaeology Conservancy believe the Lamb Springs
site near Denver may hold Pre-Clovis activity. Giant mammoths lived
there with camels, horses, sloths, llamas and wolves 13,000 years ago.
Humans certainly lived there with mammoths 8000 years ago.
Archaeologist Dennis Stanford (of the Paisley Cave Pre-Clovis
coprolite find) found a 30 pound rock with possible tool marks on it.
The stone had to be carried to this spot by humans. It sits at the
16,000 years ago sediment layer.
(My note; the problem here is that there is only this stone, which
could have been worked on by humans many thousands of years later. And
a heavy stone like this is not enough proof from the 16,000 years ago
layer of sediment. There would have to be other tools and human
artifacts found there as well. This is still pretty thin evidence of
Pre-Clovis at this site.)
They will continue excavating at this site in hopes of finding more.
