Ice Age Atlantis? Exploring the Solutrean-Clovis ‘connection’

World Archaeology, 2005
Bradley and Stanford (2004) have raised now, in several instances, the claim that European Upper Paleolithic Solutrean peoples colonized North America, and gave rise to the archaeological complex known as Clovis. They do so in the face of some obvious challenges - notably the several thousand miles of ocean and the 5000 radiocarbon years that separate ...

The Solutrean Site of Ambrosio Cave (Almería, Spain)

Journal of Anthropological Research, 2015

The Solutrean Atlantic Hypothesis: A View from the Ocean

Journal of the North Atlantic, 2008

Solutrean Settlement of North America? A Review of Reality

American Antiquity, 2000
AbstractThe Solutrean techno-complex of southern France and the Iberian Peninsula is an impossible candidate as the “source” for either pre-Clovis or Clovis traditions in North America. Primarily this is because the Solutrean ended ca. 16,500-18,000 B.P. (at least 5,000 years before Clovis appeared) and was separated from the U.S. eastern seaboard by 5,

Solutrean Animal Ressource Exploitation at Combe Saunière (Dordogne, France)

2006
Excavations at the site of Combe Saunière yielded a large quantity of well-preserved Solutrean artefacts, including more than 400 shouldered point fragments and over 12,000 identifiable faunal remains. Several domains of analysis were integrated to reconstruct the technological and economic behaviour of Solutrean populations in their territory.
