Using complete sentences, describe the similarities and differences between the Clovis and Folsom cultures.

The Clovis and Folsom groups were both Paleo-Indian cultures whose artifacts and remains were first discovered in New Mexico. The groups were named after the regions where they were discovered. It is believed that both groups were nomadic hunter-gatherer societies. These two cultures differ for a few reasons. The Clovis culture is often considered to belong to the early Paleo-Indian group and thought to be older than the Folsom culture, which belongs to the late Paleo-Indian group. The biggest differences between these two groups is in the types of weapons they used to hunt and in which animals they hunted. The Clovis culture used Clovis points, or arrowheads. These points were between 4 and 6 inches long and had fluted points. The Clovis used these points along with atlatls to hunt large game like mammoths. The Folsom culture also used points to hunt; however, their points were slightly different. Referred to as Folsom points, they were only about two inches long and had a fluted groove that almost reached the end of the point on both sides. The Folsom used these points to hunt smaller game such as bison.

Clovis points and Folsom points are different points, It's possible that Folsoms are a later model made by the same culture in later years. They needed a good sized point just to get through the thick hide and meat to kill it.
