The East Wenatchee Clovis Site (also called the Richey-Roberts Clovis Site or the Richey Clovis Cache) is a deposit of prehistoric Clovis points and other implements, dating to roughly 11,000 radiocarbon years before present or about 13,000 calendar years before present, found near the city of East Wenatchee, Washington in 1987.
The Buttermilk Creek complex artifact assemblage is much larger and more varied than other North American sites advanced as having a pre-Clovis component. This is one of the main reasons why the claim of a pre-Clovis component at this site has been greeted with much more credibility than at most other potential pre-Clovis sites.
In either case this should not be considered a Pre-Clovis site. [citation needed] Cueva Fell [70] and Pali Aike Crater sites in Patagonia, with hearths, stone tools and other elements of human habitation dating to at least as early as 11,000 BP. The Big Eddy Site in southwestern Missouri contains several claimed pre-Clovis artifacts or geofacts.
The Page–Ladson archaeological and paleontological site is a deep sinkhole in the bed of the karstic Aucilla River (between Jefferson and Taylor counties in the Big Bend region of Florida) that has stratified deposits of late Pleistocene and early Holocene animal bones and human artifacts. The site was the first pre-Clovis site discovered in ...
The Pre-Clovis artifacts from Meadowcroft Rockshelter include a lanceolate point (named the Miller Lanceolate), bifaces, unifaces, prismatic blades, core fragments, and debitage. Remains from other Pre-Clovis sites (e.g., Cactus Hill and Saltville, Virginia, Topper, South Carolina, etc.) are usually compared to the Meadowcroft assemblage. [24]

The previous excavations had not found any artifacts below the top 100 centimetres (39 in) from the ground surface, with evidence of fluted points (possibly Clovis or Folsom points) at the 90 to 100 centimetres (35 to 39 in) level. In hopes of finding pre-Clovis artifacts, the 1998 excavation was extended below the 100 centimetres (39 in) level.
