A Canadian series of maps

You will notice that the "fluted points" map does not display the
correct
ice margins for any time in the time span supposedly portrayed by the
map,
according to the (rather authoritative) Canadian source, i.e.
11,500 - 10,000 rcybp.
Also, I'm a little suspicious of that date range for the points,
although I could be wrong; that seems to be a little early, and
I wonder if "rcybp" (the lower-case lettering is unusual)
should have been "years ago".
Here is an online paper that gives the latest Waters and Stafford
(2007)
revised Clovis dates in both rcybp and calibrated (Table 1).

I wuld like to see the map(s)

I think this is the newest Anderson fluted point page.

This one is better http://pidba.utk.edu/maps.htm

Nice maps. It is a pitty that the various point
are not illustrated together with the maps
In fact they are not illustrated at all.

Interesting are the clovis points in the north eastern


Oops. north western

river valleys (Upper Missouri and lower Platte?), isolated
from the main range.
