Yes there has been a lot of controvasy about the Clovis people - one of my lectures described it not as science, but more like a religious following of hte concept that they were the first people in the USA - despite several differnet sites with evidence proving otherwise (there was a lot of slander and insults thrown about - not science by study, but by pride and politics)
