Clovis tradition

The Clovis tradition refers to a prehistoric culture dating around 13,000 years ago, recognized for its distinctive stone spear points called Clovis points. These finely crafted tools were used by early Native Americans to hunt large game like mammoths and bison. The Clovis tradition marks one of the earliest widespread cultures in North America, demonstrating advanced craftsmanship and adaptability. It is significant because it provides evidence of early human migration and survival strategies across diverse environments during the late Paleolithic period.
