Cougars, Mountain Lions, and Pumas - One Creature with Three Names A Metric Analysis of Quad, Price Stemmed, and Chesrow Projectile Points From Southern Wisconsin (2004)
Across southern Wisconsin a distinct style of projectile point is represented in several artifact collections. It is lanceolate in shape, having concave bases, and basal tangs that angle down and out. Workmanship varies from crude to refined. This point style has been identified as Chesrow, Price Stemmed, and Quad. With these names comes affiliation with three distinct times and cultures: Chesrow – Pre-Clovis; Quad - Late-Paleo Indian; Price Stemmed - Late Archaic. This paper describes a metric...
Evaluation of Early Human Activities and Remains in the California Desert (1980)
The desert quarter of California lies open for change and/or destruction. This report presents the area's demonstrated wealth of prehistoric information that still is little known, uncorrelated, controversial and fragile. To justify the large sums already expended on archeological surveys of CDCA, it is now essential to create a public document that goes much further. Our research outlines a story of desert prehistory --the searches of Rogers, the Campbells, Simpson, Begole, Childers,...
Evolution and Diversification of Native Land Use Systems on the Olympic Peninsula: a Research Design (1988)

PROTEIN RESIDUE, POLLEN, STARCH, AND PHYTOLITH ANALYSIS OF STONE SAMPLES FROM CAVES 2 AND 5, PAISLEY 5 MILE POINT CAVES, SITE 35LK3400, OREGON (2010)
A hand stone and 4 slab fragments cut from a large boulder were submitted for protein residue analysis from the Paisley 5 Mile Point Caves, Oregon. Previous work by other researchers has identified the presence of a variety of mammal and fish protein residue and DNA at the Paisley Caves. Because of the age of this site, the suite of protein residue antisera used to test these artifacts included elephant, camel, and horse, representing Late-Pleistocene fauna now extinct in North America. In...
