We've got more flutes than Jethro Tull - Palaeo Updates with Josh and Trevor
This fortnight we assemble the New Brunswick Palaeo Project team for an update on all that is Pleistocene and all that is fluted. We're flashing back to the Ice Age with friends of the show Josh Cummings (NBDTI) and Trevor Charlemagne Dow (Ecofor) to talk about our recent research, and the latest on the oldest in NB and the Maritimes since we last covered the topic in Season 1 (Clovis, Folsom, and Plano, Oh My!). Sharpen your spearpoints and outre-those-passés, listener, we're moving quicker than a limace and hopefully spurring a whole new conversation. Show Notes Dignam, D.J., Blair, S.E., & Blair, C.R.
