According to the now familiar story, mammal hunters entered the continent some 12,000 years ago via a land bridge that spanned the Bering Sea. Distinctive stone tools belonging to the Clovis culture established the presence of these early New World people. But are the Clovis tools Asian in origin? Drawing from original archaeological analysis, paleoclimatic research, and genetic studies, noted archaeologists Dennis J. Stanford and Bruce A. Bradley challenge the old narrative and, in the process, counter traditional-and often subjective-approaches to archaeological testing for historical relatedness. The authors apply rigorous scholarship to a hypothesis that places the technological antecedents of Clovis in Europe and posits that the first Americans crossed the Atlantic by boat and arrived earlier than previously thought. Supplying archaeological and oceanographic evidence to support this assertion, the book dismantles the old paradigm while persuasively linking Clovis technology with the culture of the Solutrean people who occupied France and Spain more than 20,000 years ago. 606 $aClovis culture 606 $aHuman beings$xMigrations 606 $aIndians of North America$xTransatlantic influences 606 $aPaleo-Indians$xOrigin 606 $aGlacial epoch$zNorth America 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aClovis culture. 615 0$aHuman beings$xMigrations. 615 0$aIndians of North America$xTransatlantic influences. 615 0$aPaleo-Indians$xOrigin. 615 0$aGlacial epoch 676 $a970.01/1 700 $aStanford$b Dennis J$01056769 701 $aBradley$b Bruce A.$f1948-$01056770 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910461715203321 996 $aAcross Atlantic ice$92491380 997 $aUNINA
