Update on the Clovis people! The hunter-gatherers who inhabited North America starting more than 13,000 years ago were thought to have hunted megafauna such as mammoths, mastodons, and gomphotheres—perhaps to extinction. But new research, including a study of the “Anzick child” burial, is prompting archaeologists to rethink Clovis hunting and dining habits.
