Weights of Chipped Stone Points: A Clue to Their Functions (1953)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Franklin Fenenga.

J. Whittaker: Weighed 884 points from 16 sites in CA plus 1 NV Anasazi, 1 NB 18th C Apache, 1 ND protohistoric, 1 SD protohistoric, 1 MO Archaic, 1 MO Hopewell. Finds bimodality: less than 3.49 gm, and more than 4.5 gm (only 33 = 3.7% fall between). Suggests small point tradition reflects bow and arrow, late sites, while large point tradition is atlatl, earlier sites. Notes contradictory evidence: Browne 1938 and his own experiments with atlatl show small points, no points, large points all...

Welcome to the Machine: New Techniques in Predictive Modeling for Improving Data Quality in Zooarchaeology (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Eric Gilmore. Jonathan Dombrosky. Lisa Nagaoka. Steve Wolverton.

This is an abstract from the "Recent Advances in Zooarchaeological Methods" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Taxonomic identification is a key goal of faunal analysis, but few controls are in place to ensure data quality. Comparative collections and identification guides offer valuable information; however, the validity of faunal identification can be questioned without assessing each feature’s utility for differentiating taxa. Analysis of biometric...

Well, Shoot: Firearm Target Practice as a Recreational Activity on a Rural 19th Century Homestead (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Abigail K Kindler.

On a poor and rural homestead, an approximated late 19th century tin enamel bucket was found with numerous bullet holes of varying calibers and trajectories.

With very little information on target practice as a possible recreational pastime, the sport could have been done by both men and women, young and old, infrequently or quite commonly. Both experimental archaeology...
