About Monte Verde

Monte Verde

Monte Verde is a Paleolithic archaeological site in the Llanquihue Province in southern Chile, located near Puerto Montt, Los Lagos Region. The site is primarily known for Monte Verde II, generally suggested to date to 14,500 years ago, which has been largely accepted as showing that the human settlement of the Americas pre-dates the Clovis culture by at least 1,000 years. If this were to be true, it contradicts the previously accepted "Clovis first" model which holds that settlement of the Americas began after 13,500 years cal. BP. The site also contains an older, much more controversial layer suggested to date to 18,500 cal BP, that lacks the general acceptance of Monte Verde II.
