Clovis points
Clovis points are ancient stone tools used by early North American inhabitants known as the Clovis culture, which emerged around 13,000 years ago. These distinctively shaped projectile points, characterized by a fluted or notched design, were primarily used for hunting large game, such as mammoths. Found across North America, Clovis points are significant for understanding prehistoric human migration and adaptation. Their discovery has provided crucial insights into the lives of early humans and their interactions with the environment during the late Ice Age.
