Clovis point

A Clovis point is a distinctive type of prehistoric stone spearhead that dates back around 13,000 years. It is characterized by its finely crafted, fluted shape—meaning it has a groove or channel down its center—making it easier to attach securely to a spear shaft. Clovis points are among the earliest widely recognized tools made by Paleo-Indians in North America, associated with the Clovis culture. They reflect advanced knapping techniques and were used primarily for hunting large game. These artifacts provide valuable insights into early human ingenuity and migration patterns on the continent.
