Notes:  Not a rehashing of his 1991 “First Americans: Search and Research”, but probably an expansion of the idea that South American occupation and settlement predates and occupies the same time period as Clovis.  Dillehay excavated the Monte Verde site in Chile, the first “pre-Clovis” site in the New World.  Does Monte Verde really predate Clovis?
