  • Debert Palaeo-Indian Site

    The Debert Palaeo-Indian Site in Nova Scotia, Canada, is a significant archaeological location, notable as the most North-easterly Palaeo-Indian site in North America and evidence of the earliest human settlements in eastern North America, dating back 10,500–11,000 years. Discovered in 1948, it was partially destroyed during WWII when a military air base and parking facilities were constructed. Despite this, excavations revealed a vast occupation area, underscoring its importance in understanding early human history in the region.
