摘要
It was a social media post by Graham Hancock last week that let me to create this short video on a site not many people will know a lot about.
The Cerutti Mastodon site features heavily in Graham’s new book, America Before, a site that came to light in 2017 when researchers announced that broken mastodon bones were found that date to around 130,700 years ago.
The site is located in San Diego County, California and the broken bones were found together with cobblestones, displaying clear and impact marks. Experts believe that these marks were caused by the intentional breakage of the bones hominins, likely humans, using the cobblestones.
It is a suggestion that changes our understanding of ancient North America as the general consensus is that this part of the world was first inhabited by humans between 13,000 and 16,000 years ago, so is there any merit to the claims behind the age of the site? Watch the video to learn more!
