PROTEIN RESIDUE (CIEP) ANALYSIS FOR THE CEDAR FORK CREEK MASTODON SITE, MORROW COUNTY, OHIO (2019)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Linda Scott Cummings. Caitlin A. Clark.

The Cedar Fork Creek Mastodon site appears to be a PaleoIndian Proboscidean bone workshop located in Morrow County, Ohio. It is believed that the remains of a mastodon are buried somewhere under a modern day bog-like pond (George DeMuth, personal communication, September 23, 2019). It is also believed the prehistoric people harvested and dragged parts of the mastodon away to the workshop located on a nearby hill. The mastodon remains were then likely processed for food and for making useful...

PROTEIN RESIDUE ANALYSIS OF A FLUTED POINT FROM THE BOG SITE, CA-SDI-2506, SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA (2006)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Kathryn Puseman. Jaime Dexter.

A single obsidian fluted point and an associated soil control from the Bog Site, CA-SDI-2506, in the Lost Valley area in northeastern San Diego County, California, were tested for possible protein residues. Although the site has been culturally affiliated with a seasonal camp of the late prehistoric and protohistoric Cupeno People and possibly the Mountain Cahuilla, the fluted point is believed to represent the early Holocene Clovis Culture approximately 10,000 to 12,000 years ago. Obsidian...

A Haskett projectile point collected from the surface of the Great Salt Lake Desert in Tooele County, Utah was submitted for protein residue analysis. The artifact was associated with site 42TO5135, a large Paleoindian surface lithic scatter with 68 various stone tools such as projectile points, scrapers, bifaces, and utilized flakes (Daron Duke, Personal Communication, February 04, 2013). Most artifacts from the playa surface were heavily weathered, but the projectile point appeared to have...


PROTEIN RESIDUE ANALYSIS OF ARTIFACTS FROM THE BULL CREEK CACHE, SITE 34BV180, OKLAHOMA (2006)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Kathryn Puseman. Jaime Dexter.

A total of 15 stone tools from the Bull Creek Cache, site 34BV180, in western Oklahoma were tested for possible protein residues. One soil control sample also was submitted for analysis. The Bull Creek Cache is a Clovis tool cache containing 112 lithic artifacts located along Bull Creek, a tributary to the Beaver River, just downstream from the Bull Creek site. The cache consists of bifaces, flakes, large overshot flakes, and blades that exhibit edge shaping and resharpening, suggesting...


PROTEIN RESIDUE ANALYSIS OF ARTIFACTS FROM THE COOPER SITE AND THE JAKE BLUFF SITE, OKLAHOMA (2003)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Kathryn Puseman.

Two Clovis projectile points from the Jake Bluff site (34HP60) and three Folsom projectile points from the Cooper site (34HP45) in northwest Oklahoma were analyzed for protein residues. Single soil samples from each of these sites also were tested. At the Jake Bluff site, the remains of 15 Bison antiquus were found associated with the two Clovis projectile points in the bottom of a short arroyo. A radiocarbon date of 10,750 BP suggests that this site post-dates mammoth extinction in the area...
