The Solutrean is a prehistoric culture that existed in Europe around 21,000 to 17,000 years ago during the Upper Paleolithic period. It is primarily associated with the Solutré site in France, where distinctive stone tools, such as finely crafted blades and points, were discovered. The Solutrean people are known for their advanced flint-knapping techniques, which allowed them to create sharp and effective hunting tools. This culture is often linked to the migration of early humans into North America, with some theories suggesting that the Solutrean people may have traveled across the Atlantic Ocean. However, this idea remains controversial among archaeologists, and more research is needed to understand the full extent of their influence and movements.
