Scientists examined chemical signatures left by food items in the remains of an 18-month-old child who was buried about 13,000 years ago .

They concluded that she mostly ate mammoths, which made up around 35% of her diet, as well as elk, bison and camel.

Such a discovery made the Clovis people “more real to me as folks I could almost interact with directly,” says co-lead author James Chatters .
