YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The Clovis Culture disappeared completely at Younger Dryas Boundary, 12,900 years ago. It’s a pattern that repeats globally - in Japan, Europe, other regions - cultural groups vanishing all at same timeline.

The archaeological explanation is that "Social disruption led to migration."

But what if there’s an alternative explanation? Maybe they didn't migrate, maybe they just didn't survive. Is it a coincidence that the cultural evidence ends at the same time as a global catastrophe boundary?
