✦ Synopsis

Sheriden Cave is a deeply buried, stratified, and radiocarbon dated (ca. 11,500 B.P.) late Pleistocene habitation site located in northwestern Wyandot County, Ohio, United States. Artifacts recovered from the cave include a side scraper manufactured from a bifacial thinning flake, a bifacial preform, chert debitage, a carved, incised, and beveled-based osseous point, and burned bone. Most of the toolstones are nonlocal cherts that outcrop between 140 and 400 km from the site. The artifact assemblage is distinctive of the Early Paleoindian, Clovis Cultural Complex of North America.

An enigmatic circular pit uncovered during archaeological excavations at the Clovis type site, Blackwater Draw, New Mexico, in 1964 has been reexposed and posited as a water well excavated by Clovis people around 11,500 B.C. The prehistoric well, the oldest in the New World, was probably a dry hole.

Mutual climatic range (MCR) analysis was applied to 15 North American beetle assemblages spanning the interval from ΟΎ 52 000 to 17 200 yr BP, bracketing a Mid-Wisconsin interstadial interval. The analyses yielded estimates of mean July (TMAX) and mean January (TMIN) temperatures. The oldest assembla
