Possible evidence of clovis settlement in southwestern oklahoma.
editI would really like to know how to really talk to someone about some things that I've seen and documented around my area. I got what I believe to be mounds of evidence that may support the fact that there was a clovis people type settlement right here in southwestern oklahoma. 2600:387:C:5534:0:0:0:8 (talk) 04:56, 21 February 2022 (UTC)

White Sands NM human footprint dating re-opens Beringia crossing theory
editThe dating of human footprints found in White Sands NM desert (Oct 2023) puts into question aspects of the Beringia Crossing theory, which asserts a crossable land bridge existed between 16000-9000 BP. The footprints were dated by 2 independent methods (quartz sunlight aging, and pollen analysis) that agree the footprints were laid down between 23000 and 21000 BP.
Someone with expertise on this might want to interject a note of caution into this article's true status as unproven theory subject to ongoing discoveries. Pbierre (talk) 12:49, 21 October 2023 (UTC)
