While clement's theory is old, and perhaps wrong, it is published reliably. Your evidence contradicting this is
WP:OR. We would need someone else to reliably propose an alternate theory based on the new evidence, or at least discrediting Clement's. I am not sure that "exposingthetruth.co" counts as a reliable source (seems to verge on conspiracy/alternate medicine oriented etc), especially as many of the comments are proposing much more modern and plausible explanations, including photographic evidence of modern plowing techniques.
However, we can make some of the statements a bit more neutral regarding clement's theory. I will make a pass at that.
