Though little is known about the Solutreans, they are extremely important with regards to ancient North American history and by extension ancient European history. At an archeological site near Pittsburgh Pennsylvania, anthropologist Jim Adavasio discovered blades and blade cores dating back to 16,000 BC. What’s significant about this find is that it would put the Solutreans as the first group of people to voyage and inhabit the Americas. More so, it is assumed that the arrival of the Solutreans can date as far back as 10,000 years ago, all the way up to 30,000 years ago. Well before the common academic consensus of habitation in the Americas. This revelation would send shockwaves throughout the mainstream and academia, for obvious reasons.
