"the whole Clovis controversy in North America" The peopling of America is still an ongoing challenge to understand. There may have been numerous migrations from several directions and not just one "land bridge" episode ~14,000 years ago.

The "clovis controversy" is new to me. I will have to Google it. Just today, the Boston Globe reports that a mammal fossil was found in China with a small dinosaur in its digestive track. In the hip, cool world of archaeology (I guess) this is astounding news. It overturns the entire paradigm that dinosaurs preceded mammals in evolution. To take a giant leap from this one discovery, I think creationism should be taught alongside evolution in our schools. From what I know about the fossil record, it contains many anomalies not consistent with evolution theory. This is just the latest one, and I think kids in school ought to be presented with the evidence and theories from both sides -- then they can make up their own minds.
