Ancient West Texas: Clovis to Comanches

The Llano Estacado region of West Texas, near Lubbock, boasts a fascinating history dating back nearly twelve thousand years. The Clovis people, migratory hunters, were the first to arrive, followed by the Folsom tradition. Both groups hunted large animals and gathered plants. However, their distinct styles vanished around ten thousand years ago, likely evolving into new societies. Scientists believe overhunting and environmental shifts led to their decline, as tall grasses gave way to shorter ones, causing a massive extinction. New regional groups rose and fell over thousands of years, with Apaches and Comanches arriving from the north and Europeans like Francisco Vasquez de Coronado from the south. This rich history is preserved through countless books, articles, and personal accounts, keeping the story of the Llano Estacado alive. Checkout Solipillow.com
