I fell into a #PaleoIndian rabbit hole earlier today when I saw a clickbait article on #CactusHill in Virginia. It's supposedly the oldest evidence of human settlement in North America, dating back to about 16,000 BP. The thing is, Cactus Hill was excavated and reported on back in the late 90s -- that I'd never heard of it before just means I'm a dilettante and not an archeologist -- and it formed part of the #MonteVerde discussion at that time. So if anyone knows more about it, what's the word?
