Its a marker interface and the clone method is already defined in Object class.

Cloneable Interface is a Marker Interface. Marker interfaces are used to specify that a class belongs to a logical family or grouping. These interfaces are used for tagging the classes into a category.

eg. Cloneable Interface enables a class to be cloned using clone() method defined in Object class. If a class does not implements Cloneable Interface, clone() method will throw CloneNotSupportedException.
