Una pica en piedra punzante, clave en la caza en la Edad de Hielo

Sep 2, 2024 | expreso.ec | Scott Byram

Una pica larga, con una piedra afilada y punzante sujeta a ella, se apoyaba en el suelo para coger impulso y de ahí se clavaba en las grandes presas, como mastodontes o bisontes, con el efecto similar a un disparo de hoy día.
1st Americans impaled and killed mammoths with pikes, not spears, study suggests

Drawing of a paleolithic hunting scene on a plain with hunters holding spears up to a woolly mammoth. Researchers who thought ancient hunters threw spears to kill mammoths and mastodons may have got the wrong end of the stick, archaeologists say. Instead of hurling weapons at prehistoric beasts, hunters likely used their weapons like pikes, impaling the beasts as they charged, a new study suggests.
Biden prioritizes job over ambitions

Aug 27, 2024 | thegazette.com | Scott Byram

Althea Cole recently wrote a column stating that since President Joe Biden wasn’t going to continue his campaign for re-election he should step down as President. She says because he has chosen not to seek re-election he can’t do the job. This is of course a nonsense Republican talking point (but I repeat myself). He was elected to be President, not a salesperson. He has chosen to prioritize doing his job (which he has done well) and the needs of the United States over his political ambitions.

To kill mammoths in the Ice Age, people used planted pikes, not throwing spears, researchers say

“It just started to make sense to me that it actually had a different purpose than some of the other tools,” Byram said. “Unlike some of the notched arrowheads, it was a more substantial weapon. And it was probably also used defensively.”Conversations around a campfire early in the pandemic between Jun, a zooarchaeologist who learned from local communities during his time in Africa, and Kent Lightfoot, a Berkeley anthropology professor emeritus, prompted them to dig into the mystery.

Jason Pohl/UC BerkeleyWhile the dominant narrative and popular culture view Clovis points and tipped spears as a throwing weapon, UC Berkeley researchers say these tools may have actually been designed to be braced against the ground as a pike during a confrontation with megafauna. How did early humans use sharpened rocks to bring down megafauna 13,000 years ago? Did they throw spears tipped with carefully crafted, razor-sharp rocks called Clovis points?

How did early humans use sharpened rocks to bring down megafauna 13,000 years ago? Did they throw spears tipped with carefully crafted, razor-sharp rocks called Clovis points? Did they surround and jab mammoths and mastadons? Or did they scavenge wounded animals, using Clovis points as a versatile tool to harvest meat and bones for food and supplies? UC Berkeley archaeologists say the answer might be none of the above.

Early humans used planted pikes to kill mammoths in the Ice Age – study (Gareth Fuller/PA)PA ArchiveEarly humans used planted pikes, not spears, to kill mammoths in the Ice Age, new research suggests. Archaeologists say the findings might reshape what we think life was like some 13,000 years ago. The researchers looked at how early humans used sharpened rocks to bring down large animals, investigating the use of razor-sharp rocks called Clovis points.
