A 6.3cm-long Clovis point found in Pike County (Illinois).  It is 13,000 years old.

Each side of the base has a longitudinal groove, or “flute”, chipped out of it.  This actually allows the base to act as a “shock absorber”, increasing the point’s ability to withstand stress. Upon impact, the more brittle base crumples and absorbs some of the energy, preventing breaks elsewhere on the point that would make it unable to be reused.

This Clovis point has been to space!

Interlude Episode - Boats of Prehistory

Our between-seasons interlude episode is now live! We take a whirlwind look at the basic boat forms that would (most likely) have been used in prehistory: dugout canoes, reed boats, rafts, bark canoes, hide canoes and boats, and the coracle. We also talk about some historic recreation voyages like Kon-Tiki and the First Mariners Project.

“During prehistorical times, the value or disvalue of an action was derived from its consequences. In the last ten thousand years, however, it is no longer the consequences but the origin of an action that one allows to decide its value.”

—F. Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil, §32 (edited excerpt).
