Ten lithic artifacts, their associated soil controls, and a general site surface soil control from Site LA110143 in southeast New Mexico were submitted for protein residue analysis. This site exhibited two concentrations of Archaic Period lithic artifacts believed to represent hunting and faunal processing activities, as well as a small locus containing three ceramic sherds from the Jornado Mogollon Period. The site is believed to have experienced several short term occupations....

The Amanda’s Terrace Site (8HG1312), a prehistoric lithic scatter, is located in the Sandy Point Wildlife Refuge in Highlands County, Florida. Eight lithic artifacts including two flake tools, a reshaped biface/knife, a possible Paleoindian fluted point, and four points dating to the Early and Middle Archaic periods (Doug MacDonald, personal communication April 12, 2017) were submitted for protein residue analysis using counter immunoelectrophoresis (CIEP). In addition, charcoal identification...

Samples from site 46BO419, Boone County, West Virginia were submitted for archaeobotanical and AMS radiocarbon dating analysis. Ceramic, lithic, and other stone tool artifacts were analyzed for protein residues (cross over immunoelectrophoresis) and organic residues (FTIR). Charred botanical remains were submitted for charcoal identification and AMS radiocarbon dating. Results of these analyses have the potential to increase the understanding of Early Archaic through Late Woodland periods in...

Lithic artifacts from sites 36JU15 (the Groninger Site) and 36JU113 (the Henry Site) were examined for possible protein residues. In addition, a nutting stone and an axe from 36JU15 were examined using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometry (FTIR). These sites are located along Tuscarora Creek in southern Pennsylvania. Primary occupations during the Late Archaic (ca. 1500 BC) to the Late Woodland (ca. AD 1000-1250) were noted at the Groninger Site. In addition, more limited evidence for an...

Forty artifacts from site 11PK1702 in Bay Creek valley, Pike County, western Illinois, were submitted for ethnobotanic analyses. Twenty-two lithic tools were analyzed for protein, and fourteen ceramic sherds, two hammerstones, and two groundstones were tested for organic residues using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). Pollen, starch, and phytolith analysis were also performed on two of the ceramic sherds. Site 11PK1702 represents a special function lithic workshop with intensive...

Archaeology, ethnohistory, ethnography, geology, and community development at the largest Precolumbian saltworks in the Maya world. Salinas de los Nueve Cerros was a Maya city located at the highland-lowland transition along the Chixoy River that produced up to 24,000 tons of salt/year during the Late Classic period (AD 600-850). It was occupied from at least 800 BC through the Classic collapse, and continued to be occupied throughout the Postclassic and colonial periods, with salt production...

During the late spring of 1962 the River Basin Surveys, Smithsonian Institution, conducted an archeological survey of the Pony Creek Watershed in Mills County, Iowa, as a part of the Inter-Agency Archeological Salvage Program. The watershed was surveyed and archeological sites in danger of destruction or inundation were tested or excavated. The preliminary investigation was directed by the writer with the assistance of Wilfred M. Husted and Lee G. Madison, both of the River Basin Surveys,...

The City of Phoenix sponsored a voluntary archaeological project at the proposed location of a new recreation building. The project area is within the large Hohokam village of Pueblo Viejo, AZ T:12:73(ASM). The village was occupied from the Colonial period through the Classic period and covers about 640 acres. Field work at the site was conducted between March 30 and April 14, 1992, by a crew of four. Post-excavation monitoring of utility trenches by a single archaeologist took place September...

In this dissertation, I examine trajectories of cultural evolution among complex hunter-gatherers and middle range societies. Broadly, I consider the theoretical issues related to these two areas of study and how we should conceptualize the study of sociocultural evolution in societies organized at this scale. I apply these ideas to the study of the prehistoric hunter-gatherers who occupied Sapelo Island, Georgia, U. S. A. Specifically, I examine the Archaic period (4200 – 3000 B. P.)...
