I think solutrean hypothesis is already buried in the coffin of no evidence. But this particular artifact doesn't seem to direct address solutrean hypothesis.

As long as the Cactus Hill artifacts remain unexplained, Solutrean remains on the table. Not as any sort of migration, of course, but as hunters working along the ice sheet.

They could get virtually anything they needed from their kills along the ice except fresh stone. The ice sheet extended well down the American coast.

No, they'll use K-Ar dating to date the knife to 47 million years.

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
