Obvious cut marks on bones from an extinct horse in Alaska puts humans in the New World 24 K years ago

Not rock pile related but we all like this sort of counter-establishment story:

You wonder, how many nails does the "Clovis First" coffin need? I love the current version: 

New evidence suggests human presence in a Yukon cave during the last ice age 24,000 years ago.

I want to say: make up your minds, does carbon dating work or not? Did some other creature than humans make cut marks?
