The Museum is kind of old and simple, however you must take into consideration that in an archaeological field, Clovis is considered as the birthplace of ancient humanity with artifacts that date as much as 12.000 years back. It is one of Americas most important archaeological sites due to the historic importance.

Jonathan was extremely knowledgeable and funny! The museum is smaller but it packs a punch for relevance and overall historical significance to not only North America but the Native Americans. I am an avid museum enthusiast and was very impressed. This place is certainly worth the time. It is a diamond for Portales, NM. 10/10 for anyone who loves history.

Very nice! Pleasant staff. Found a couple books to buy. Informative. Nice activities for kids, including grinding corn with rocks! Entrance is little door a way back and to the left of the museum name.

Small museum. We were the only patrons when we visited. Many small exhibits and most interactive. More could be on the Black Water Draw. But, they had apparently moved the museum fairly recently. Also, there were many exhibits under development. The, I believe, museum director whose office is there was enthusiastic to answer questions, and she was very knowledgeable and helpful. Signage within the building that directs one to the museum could be more obvious and at all entrances. We failed to make the first turn and wandered a bit before finding the museum.

Very cool little museum at the Eastern New Mexico University in Portales, NM. Extensive collection of clovis point arrowheads found at the nearby archeological site. Interesting unearthed indigenous pottery. Perfect for history and archeological buffs. Thank you!

This place has moved to in town at the university but is really small. Just a room of very little actual real artifacts and some reading materials. You are charged a nominal fee which is sad still though since most places allow you to just donate to see a little room of stuff.

Honestly An awesome museum. It has very affordable prices at its small gift shop, and has a little something for everyone. Before going you must know that the museum itself is pretty small but does have a decent amount of things on display. It’ll probably take you about 30-45 minutes to walk through. I do find it more interesting and fun if you visit the digsite and the museum on the same day as they share lots of information. Overall, this is definitely one of NM’s best museums 👍
