>>2162708Nah buddy you're the retard who still thinks the "Clovis first" dogma is accurate. It's not. Humans have been in the Americas for significantly longer than 15k years.
>just a coincidence dudeI didn't say anything was coincidence you little shit. I said an impact or series of impacts is responsible for the collapse of megafauna in the Americas, as well as the Clovis peoples who you think were responsible. Have you read anything about this at all? Or just watched a Netflix documentary I wonder? Can you answer why humans in North America would ruthlessly slaughter hundreds of thousands of animals and leave them to rot, sometimes crushing their bones in unnatural ways incongruent with harvesting meat? Or how about the organic stratigraphic layer found at this exact time that ends the deposition of mammoth remains in the fossil record? Did people do that? See the following paragraph:
>In a study of 97 geoarcheological sites Vance Haynes found that two thirds have a black, organic rich layer (black mat) that dates to the onset of the YD. No evidence of megafaunal remains is found within or above the black mat. Haynes concluded that “stratigraphically and chronologically the extinction appears to have been catastrophic, seemingly too sudden and extensive for either human predation or climate change to have been the primary cause”. An example of the black mat at the Murray Springs Clovis site is shown in Figure 1. Numerous megafaunal fossils have been found directly in contact with the black mat (Fig. 1).Anyone pushing the overkill hypothesis or muh climate change as the reason for megafaunal extinction is uninformed and in the case of overkill, anti-human. The insistence on these theories and the resulting refusal to look at the evidence is the legacy of a centuries long bias in favor of simple uniformitarianism long held by the geologist mafia. Things hit the Earth occasionally, sometimes big things that have significant downstream effects.
