- This video is about an ancient Ice Age culture who hunted an extinct species of bison, and why we rarely find their archaeological sites in certain geographical regions.

I'm a solo TH-cam creator from start to finish, I enjoy learning about every aspect of the TH-cam video creation process.
OTHER PLACES YOU CAN FIND ME:

Harvard: canvas.harvard...
The sites and artifacts from this culture are very rare from this region, however, they are out there!
Geez, those spear heads are beautiful. To find one would be exciting and very special.
Yes, what a gift !
I don't believe it would take a thousand years to cross America west to east or north to south. I have a friend who walked from Alaska to Peru in four years and he said he was going very slow and setting up camp for weeks a couple times. He has been wandering around Patagonia for the last few years now, must have such amazing stories!
If you stop to have a family every other campsite, it miiiiiiiiight slow you a bit.
@@Svensk7119 Thank you, Sven.
@@Anthony-hu3rj Velkommen.
I hiked 2200 miles on the Appalachian trail in 6 1/2months. Plenty of others have done it too
@scoutdogfsr Okay. It can be done. You can go around the world in eighty days, too, but the difference is why. What is the motivation for prehistoric man? He/she is looking for food, and game, and at some points, home. The early explorers weren't exploring for exploration's sake.
Excellent video. Excellent content. Thanks for sharing it with us. And thank you for being an actual person.
Thank you very much! Means a lot to me!
I live and farm in northern Missouri. I have found thousands of points, probably 20 Agate Basins . Never found a Clovis or a Folsom . Dalton’s and Hardins are not common but more frequent than Agate Basins.
Thank you for a great video, but also for doing it yourself, and not having an AI voice mess everything up! Subscribed.
Honestly one of the best compliments I could have received! Thank you!
Amazing that they could get past the bears. Even though there were bison and elk everywhere.
I found a hand axe in New Jersey on the Delaware River Camden County 😅😅
Looks like palio
What's so funny?
The Harvard link above is not working. One needs a password. Thanks for the most interesting video.
Looks like they were specialized hunters for the animals roaming the great plains but im sure trading happened alot through the missouri river and others
The spearhead you show was not as useful as the clovis point. The clovis spearheads could be fitted into a short shaft and thrown with a atl atl farther distances and more force. Wyoming was a transitional area especially in the eastern portion. The Glendo area north and south. There have been numerous archaeological digs in that area.
Back in the late 50s we were out looking for arrowheads and my brother found a beautiful 3 1/2” clovis point called a Angustura point in particular. The double fluting and flaking was at a level that is far above what other tribes produced in the east and elsewhere. We were about 25 miles north of Cheyenne. Boggles the mind that it could be 7,000 to 10,000 years old and it was just laying out on the prairie not covered over by pine needles and leaves that are the main reason so much is covered over back east. Areas around streams & rivers are usually where points are found back east. Areas that people would stay and the erosion from water.
Ha ! This is great. A story about Ice Age Hunters.
Well, the story line says, during and at the end of the Ice Age. Siberian Hunter/Gatherers rampaged the glacial ice barrier and seized upon Megafauna.
I guess Wooly Mammoths, Giant Sloths, sabre tooth tigers, etc musta tasted wicked good compared to Bison.
Holy Hannah, they ate everything in sight but herds of fuzzy bison and skunks.
NJ had mastodon
Nebraska too, our state fossil is the mammoth. Used to be an ocean when the western interior seaway split the continent in 2. I have a saltwater shark vertebrae from the cretaceous period. Verified by Kansas state university. 66-65 myo. I dont trust the dates but it is certainly old.
Also referred as plano complex in the Ohio valley.
Just because the first of these sights was discovered in western locations, that is Wyoming, doesn't mean that this was the origin of that culture. It just means that the sight was the first one discovered. Typical narrow minded archeology.

So the climate began to warm slowly then cool then warm quicker....without any help from us. Very interesting, very interesting indeed. Oh, BTW, I believe there were cultures out here in the Big Bend area that have not been recognized. I live here and have found some artifacts that are so old that the worked edges (jet black volcanic rock) of some have weathered back to the outer cortex color of deep charcoal color.
Maga, it is interesting, but not for the reason you infer. Holy rusted metal batman, can't you clowns just smarten up, even just a little?!?
Did you just crawl out from under a rock and proceed to live in your grandma's basement and suddenly one day watch a TH-cam video and type some uninformed comment like a first grader?
@Anthony-hu3rj nope, that was your mother, btw, she tried to spend the nite, but I gave her a fiver, and she left for the local crackshack.
Where is the big bend area?
@nathanadrian7797 ?
I have a fluted agate basin base id by steve holen so apparently they did flute some of their agate basin points
Or possibly reused a fluted point made earlier? We see that in European sites as well.
Hi Mark, that's really interesting and very rare! I have seen very few examples of fluted Agate Basin points, mostly fluted just on one face instead of both faces. These might be the transitional projectile point styles from fluted points to unfluted points.
I collect Native American effigies the Lenape tribe New Jersey 😅
😍
Wow...agate basin had gas powered cars that caused climate change...didn't know that.
No! They had EVs, but burned coal to generate electricity. 😊
They should have taxed the people to stop the ice age from ending.
I was going to make a commit but your not worth it.
Where the palio in New Jersey 😢
Hi Les, there are tons of Paleo sites in New Jersey!
Why did the Agate Basin People steal the land from the Folsom people? Interesting question.
are you a flint knapper?
@@mikedothager5600 I’m very bad at flint knapping Mike. I wish I was better at it. I always wanted to take lessons on how to do it, and someday I probably will.

Maybe it got there thu trade.
First problem: that is definitely NOT an Agate Basin. That is a rare, but not that rare, Paelo Lanceolate. Agate Basins are much more elongated and thinner at the base. Sorry…
They Dalton People fluted some points A little later
Well, Now that you have answered No questions on the subject I guess I will move on to other sites who also never answer the questions they post for their thumbnail. The real question is can any of you people really date a site? Never trust an Archaeologist.
The trubes tell you in their own history, there were people here before the "indigenous people". They some how claim their land was stolen even though they committed a perfect genicide that they brag about. They said there were civilizations of great builders and metallurgists and expert miners. They killed that civilization and that takes time. The only way they could have completed this, is if the civilization welcomed them in, Trojan horse in a way, they were invited in. They stopped using stone because the west stole technology from the east. I live in the Serpent Mound Impact Crater inly two miles from Fort Hill. Syole the land, stole the technology and stole history. Whwn complete a perfect genocide, you can make up whatever history you like, theres no one to refute it. But, they left part of it in their story. They e trued to backtrack on that over the past decade, but ego clouded their judgement, pride can bw wicked. How you brag of genicide then try to claim victimhood, i do not know. But, they said it, many trubes tell the same story. Many trubes had an abundance of refined metals, copper and solver being the most hoarded. But, they didnt mine it and did originate rheir metallurgy, it was all stolen. Out of their own mouths. They enslaved neighboring tribes afterward sometimes cannibalizing them. Trail of Tears? At least they had a trail, the previous covilization was murdered in their beds. North America was ans still is the most furtile ground this planet ever had or has. Better manufactured goods through better resources. Out of their own mouths. Walled cities full of craftsmanship slowly taken from west to east.
The northeastern US is more like middle east North America.
There's plenty of land to the north of y'all.
Ahh yes the first colonizers!
😐🙄😐💩
@ cry harder
@denniscrane9753 lol, ok Maga loser. Sure sure
