Clovis, Folsom, and Plano, Oh My!

From The New Brunswick Archaeology Podcast Gabe Hrynick and Ken Holyoke

In this episode, Gabe and Ken talk about the first archaeologically known people in New Brunswick: the Palaeoindians. We begin with a continental approach to the big three temporal divisions–Clovis, Folsom, and Plano–then narrow our discussion down the New England-Maritimes Region. We wrap with a discussion of Palaeoindian archaeology in New Brunswick. See you in a couple weeks for the start of the Archaic period. Follow us on Instagram!
