As far as I know, the Clovis people did not make cave paintings and the people who did make cave paintings didn't hunt mammoths.

Is this the Mandela effect here? Are not all of the cave paintings and cave drawings I've ever seen ones of cave peoples throwing spears at wooly mammoths? Have we been Swiftboated by cave people? Stolen cave valor?
