Dr. Christopher Moore

Dr. Christopher Moore examines the changing paleo-environments of the Southeastern Coastal Plain and the ways in which humans adapted to their shifting world many millennia ago. His recent publications include articles on identifying ancient animal blood residues from stone tools in South Carolina and Georgia, and the possible impact of a comet fragment at the end of the Paleoindian Clovis period. Dr. Moore has also initiated the White Pond Human Paleoecology Project examining evidence from geologic cores and archaeological excavations to link the early prehistoric human record with periods of climate change recorded in the lake sediments over the last 13,000 years.

    The fact that "people weren't ready to accept" pre Clovis in archaeology makes me shake my head...... I live 10 minutes from the Adams site in Western Kentucky and we have many Paleo sites around this area. I personally know of at least 23 of them in a 20 mile radius. I hunt them for artifacts very often. I've tried to reach out to professors to give them the info I've gathered, but I've never gotten a response. It has always fascinated me and I've hunted artifacts (surface and creek) for the last 25 years. Thank you so much for sharing this video.

    It just shows the preexisting conclusion bias in "formal science". Instead of following the information, and determining if it is actually fact or spurious, mistaken, or misinterpreted, they reject it out of hand because it conflicts with their preexisting paradigm or conclusion.

    Pre-Clovis peopling of America is likely. But it sounds like you don't know the archaeological record. The best evidence we have is around 20,000 years ago. There are a couple questionable sites that may have been suggested but they remain very controversial. There's some old sites in Alaska as well. Listening to Graham Hancock doesnt make you an expert.

    This so cool. Been interested in the earliest ancestors of our species since I saw 2 tiny, postage stamp-sized photos of cave paintings in Lascaux, France when I was no more than 7. The more I know, the more fascinating the past becomes. I don't know why it took so long for this to show up on my KZread feed. I did searches of Clovis People and points. There is another man who is interested in the mass extinction of the Megafauna. His work involves eliptical cratering which he believes to be evidence of an asteroid impact during the time period which you also posit. It's been a while ... this is just a side interest (a passion, of many, to me). So glad this showed up on my feed. Hope your work is going still going well and you continue to make your findings & theories available to the rest of us who also share in your fascination. Thanks so much for posting this.

I have no idea how the algorithm managed to recommend this to me, and I wouldn't have known the subject if not for the thumbnail. I highly recommend changing the video title to better reflect the content. I'd be very interested in more content regarding the immunological analyses. I very much appreciate that this particular team had artifacts from multiple strata analysed, giving a much better picture of changing ecological conditions through the lense of human utilization of resources. Previously, this was inferred from the changes in "toolkits" in stratified assemblages, but to have that backed up by blood proteins is just beyond cool.

    How to flute a Clovis Point without breaking it: Take two slats of oak, shaped like they are cut out of a yard stick 10 to 12cm long. Pitch glue two buttons of wood to one end of each, four buttons total. wrap the tip of your Clovis preform in a one inch strip of buckskin/leather twice around. Wrap the two boards onto the point with the tip sandwiched flat and the buttons at the base, with a piece of string or cordage. Flute with an antler billet, works every time. Good luck everyone!

    Regarding the extinction of large animals being caused by humans (all of my assertions come from study of European Cave Art and artifacts and are my own interpretations.) •1st Extinction: Wooly Rhino. In Cave art, a meaning as clear as a red 8 sided sign is now: Stop; End of the line; There is no more. It is painted in the caves when there is nothing more to see. We, are far as I know do not know why the Wooly Rhino went extinct. My guess is that there were few to begin with and that the meat was good. • 2nd Extinction, just a guess, The Spotted Pony. The pregnant female was the goal as prey because the hide of fetus was the softest and most subtle of all animal hide. This skin of the unborn Spotted Pony would have been surely used on newborn human infants. The cave room in Lascaux with the stencils of the Spotted Pony look so like the walls of a nursery as they might be painted today. This, to me, is surely a tell as well as are the other paintings specifically of Pregnant Spotted Ponies. •3 and 4 The Cave Bear and Lion b/c of the dangers they posed. 2 interesting Cave paintings of what must have been a difficult and exciting kill. Clearly, in Spain and France, at least, caves were places that humans felt the need to control. Both the Cave Bear and Cave Lion wanted them as dens evidently. Unfortunately, here in Eastern America anyway, the caves, though present, seemed of no interest. I don't know why. 5) I think was the Irish Elk, next to face Extinction. It was a massive beast with a 6 foot rack. Oh, it was just too damned easy to kill. Animals today, beat a path to the water where they take a drink. Just string up sinew or rope in between the trees; wait for the animals massive antlers to tangle; let them exhaust themselves and move in for easy kill. On KZread, you can see creatures like Moose and Deer accidentally caught in rope swings and fencing and soccer nets. They are so scared and so many are worn out by being hopelessly caught. Our ancestors did this on purpose. Now, this doesn't mean we are responsible for the extinctions. There are epidemics in animal populations just as we also experience; however, we clearly were interested in hunting these creatures. Because there is so much less surviving art and artifact here in N.America. I know so much less of this place. The cave art in Europe survived. It was protected from the elements as were the many spectacular artifacts found within. These finds are 15,000 to 25,000 years old and may fill in some blanks here. Clovis Points have interested me from the 1st time I saw a photograph of them. They are spectacular.

We’ve got ancient sites north in Virginia, tons of ancient side south in Georgia, but only one mound recognized here in North Carolina. I found another site right here in North Carolina because the state lines didn’t exist in ancient times… I am quite disenchanted with the entire archaeological departments in my state dismissing my claims despite the same artifacts being found at my site being found at their crappy website where half of their links don’t even work… The assistant to the state archaeological department is David Cranford… He denies the existence of ancient Americans, he says there’s no effigy mounds or anything in the state and refuses to even investigate findings. They won’t even visit the site to take a look. It’s up to me and the local native American tribes to fight for our own history. Here in America there should not be a thing… We should be on the forefront of archaeology but instead we hide it.

    What is unscientific is basing dates of occupation on lack of evidence. For science to be accepted requires rigorus testing of known indisputable facts. Common sense, on the other hand, is already suggesting that modern humans were on the continent at least 30k bp. Austrailian moderns were in Austrailia by at least 50k bp. The estimate of the African migration wavers between 60k and 120k bp. It is interesting debate, but lacks any real impact on moderns future. Moderns on Mars sure as hell aren't going to care about who's on first, only that the care package arrives on time. It's a moot argument.

    I really worry about this guy. 'No other known way to create nanodiamonds other than an impact? No. Nanodiamonds can be formed by a volcanic eruption as well as in fires. Scarry when the supposed expert gets even basic knowledge wrong. He also brings up the Firestone paper which has long been debunked. 😂 Your department needs a new professor. 🙄

    Here is an example of a very blatant logical fallacy and critical thinking error: ---------------- ""Platinum is very rare in Earth's crust, but it is common in asteroids and comets," says Christopher Moore, the study's lead author. He calls the presence of platinum found in the soil layers at 11 archaeological sites in California, Arizona, New Mexico, Ohio, Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina an anomaly. ---------------- See the problem? We KNOW that platinum is exceedingly rare, so incredibly rare, yet also a very important metal for technology. The only way on the world WE ON EARTH would put this much platinum in one place is if we were building something out of it. In fact, what would it be good for? Hmmm. Maybe the best metal to use for space travel? So... If an object from ANOTHER planet crashes into Earth and it's not ROCK but mostly Platinum and other precious metals... What do we conclude? Oh, that's normal for meteors.... What is evidence? Oh the last dozen "meteor' sites we found were also chock full of platinum... Yeah, that is as circular as a hula hoop. Come on! You realize this really weird almost alien "plant" called MAIZE showed up at that exact location exactly when that platinum meteor hit? You realize there is a "mystery" as to what every happened to a tribe of people (Clovis) and iconic local beasts near there that died out mysteriously around the very same time? Why don't you look at other "meteor" impact site that just happen to be chock full of precious metals and where also there was some very strange biological changes in the local area at that exact. same. time.
