David,
There have been dozens and dozens of claims by one archaeologist or
another about sites in the Americas as old as 40,000-50,000 BCE. In
every single case, after other archaeologists have come to verify
these claims with their scientific methods and dating techniques,
these claims have proven to be false in time.
One group making a claim like this does not make for proof. Proof
comes when other teams of archeologists arrive at these sites over
time to see if the claims hold water. And as I said, every claim of
artifacts this old in the Americas has been false. It takes about 10
years to verify or not verify extraordinary claims like this.
The one site we have found that is Pre-Clovis is at Monte Verde in
Chile which are at 13,000 BCE, before the last Ice Age. Thus those
folks had to have come by canoe since there was no land bridge at
that time.
It took 15 years before those dates were accepted as genuine at Monte
Verde. So that is the oldest known place where humans lived in the
Americas discovered and verified by painstaking research by others
over 15 years.
And as I said, all other claims of artifacts that are older have been
found to be wrong.
So in 10 years time, we may find out the truth about Allendale and
those claims. The stories I posted about the 14,000 year old tools
found in Minnesota in the last two weeks will have be be verified.
The archaeologists there are inviting other teams to come and verify.
And as a member of that team said last week in the article I posted,
this may very well take 10 years before the find is verified or found
to be wrong.
This is the way science should progress. There was too much science
fiction in this field where people made claims on flimsy evidence and
was picked up by the media and led folks astray. Now, archaeologists
demand real artifacts dated by all before a claim is accepted.
Archaeology obviously is not like faith. It is a science and it is
now a very precise one. And they will find proof or they will find
mistaken claims with certainty over time.

What makes you so skeptical of the dates? All of the Native
American's North and South of the Mexican border with the exception
of the Shawnee say that they have always live here on Turtle Island
and with the notable exception claim no connection to Europe or Asia.
Many have said the migrations could have just as easily gone in the
opposite direction in the ancient past. The people on the Texas site
ARE reputable scholars and the people who dated the finds ARE
reputable scientists Aren't they?
Sincerely,
David Wakinya-Ska Bratcher
