‘Rather than launching a major new search for more early evidence, the finds stirred fierce opposition and a bitter debate: ‘one of the most acrimonious – and unfruitful – in all of science’ noted the journal Nature … Today, decades later, the Clovis first model has collapsed. ibid. Smithsonian online
But the study also raises serious questions about the effect of the bitter decades-long debate over the peopling of the New World. Did archaeologists marginalise dissenting voices on this key issue? Smithsonian 8th March 2017
A few archaeologists were saying it but the majority were ganging up on them with the forces of the Clovis Police. ibid.

‘Academic discussions of first people in the lands we know today as the Americas continue to be framed in agnotology, defined as ‘how knowledge has come to be’ and ‘how ignorance is produced through neglect, secrecy, suppression, destruction of documents, unquestioned tradition, and sociopolitical selectivity’. Educational materials framed in agnotology support colonization of the mind, teaching people to think in ways acceptable to the nation-state and not to question so-called scientific authorities.’ ibid.

In A.D. 79 the eruption of Mount Vesuvius entombed Pompeii in metres of pumice and ash preserving the city and its people for two millennia. Today Pompeii’s ruins are the archaeological wonder of the world. But incredibly one third of the 66-hectare site remains unexcavated. Now this is about to change. Pompeii: The New Dig I, BBC 2024
‘This is the biggest excavation in a generation in Pompeii. It’s an entire city block.’ ibid. comment
Rediscovered in the 1740s archaeologists have been excavating the ruins ever since. ibid.
