Environmental data collected near prehistoric archaeological sites along the Blackwater River and Bay Complex, Santa Rosa County Florida were used to create a paleoenvironmental reconstruction. Presented here are the methods employed, which include: remote sensing, vibracoring, the analysis of radon isotope tracers using a RAD7 detecting unit, and particle size distribution analysis (PSA) using a Malvern Mastersizer 3000. Identifying and documenting submarine groundwater discharge...
Paleoenvironmental Reconstruction at Poverty Point Using Ancient Sedimentary DNA: Potential and Challenges (2024)
This is an abstract from the "*SE Not Your Father’s Poverty Point: Rewriting Old Narratives through New Research" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Poverty Point is a wonder of engineering, with over two square kilometers of earthworks constructed over several hundred years around 3500 BP. While the timing of the deposit’s construction has been a topic of research for nearly 100 years, there has been relatively little investigation into the resources...

Paleoindian and Early Archaic Potentials of the Continental Shelf in the Southeast US (2002)
Florida Site File Survey Log for the report of Paleoindian and Early Archaic Potentials of the Continental Shelf in the Southeast US. From Virginia to Texas, archaeological sites which are now inundated or near the coast but were once inland as well as the sites containing coastal and marine resources are included in this synthesis. Environmental changes, including the phases of the last glacial recession and oscillations of the early Holocene are considered as determinants of known and...
Paleoindian and Early Archaic Southeast: Twenty Years of Georgia Archaeology (2018)
In the twenty years since the O’Steen and Ledbetter et. al chapters in The Paleoindian and Early Archaic Southeast, a great deal of work on the earliest occupations of Georgia has occurred. In this paper, we review recent fieldwork and collections research that have contributed to our understanding of Georgia’s early record, update distributional data of Paleoindian and Early Archaic diagnostics across the state, and compare this diagnostic distributional data with raw material distributions...
The Paleoindian Fluted Point: Dart or Spear Armature? The Identification of Paleoindian Delivery Technology Through the Analysis of Lithic Fracture Velocity (1997)
J. Whittaker: “Velocity-dependent fractures on fluted points reveal fracture rates associated with high-velocity impacts, indicating the use of the spearthrower” No clear evidence of Clovis atlatl, but early dates on hooks from Marmes Rockshelter and Warm Mineral Springs, both 9-10,000 BP, others. Summarizes Clovis and Folsom tool kits and hunting strategies. Problems of classifying points as dart or arrow tips, criticizes Odell’s flake point hypothesis – accidental fractures look similar. ...

Paleoindian Site Formation in the Tennessee River Valley (2018)
The Paleoindian occupation of the unglaciated eastern woodlands has generally been characterized by distributions of projectile points and few true sites. While this perception has begun to change in recent history, the Late Pleistocene archaeological record beyond projectile points including sites and settlement patterns remain poorly studied and reported. This paper provides an evaluation of the natural and cultural formation processes associated with Paleoindian occupation in the Tennessee...
Paleoindians of Arkansas: From the Mountains to the Mississippi of the Interior Southeast (2018)
In the past two decades, advancing methodologies and the recovery of new cultural materials have expanded our knowledge of the earliest peopling of the Ozarks, Ouachita Mountains and Mississippi Valley of Arkansas. In the late 1990’s, GIS analyses in the Mississippi Valley of northeastern Arkansas highlighted the significant association of early cultures to the lithic resources of the landscape and subsequent collaboration with PIDBA in the past decade has put this state-level record in...

Paleoseismology at Old Town Ridge (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In the fall of 2018 personnel from the Arkansas Archeological Survey, University of Memphis, and the Natural and Cultural Resources Services conducted investigations at Old Town Ridge (3CG41) to determine if Mississippian period Native Americans abandoned the site circa A.D.1400 because of earthquake activity. Excavation of Trench A exposed four sediment...
Paleostorms and Precolonial Societies: Hurricane Deposits in Inundated Archaeological Sites in Northwest Florida (2019)
This is an abstract from the "First Floridians to La Florida: Recent FSU Investigations" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. How people respond to their environment is an ongoing theme in archaeological research. However, it is not well understood how people in the past responded to rapid high energy events such as hurricanes and if planning for these events did or did not occur. To understand how hurricanes affected people in the past, we need to...
Palimpsests and Practices: Preliminary Thoughts on the Landscape as a Mediator of Political and Social Meaning at Barneston, Washington (1898-1924) (2018)
The landscapes of sawmill company towns are complex palimpsests formed from an array of practices and structures that influenced daily life. They served as sites of socioeconomic order, industry, inequality, and persistence for a diverse array of inhabitants. This paper will explore the complex and multi-vocal nature of such landscapes through a multi-scalar analysis of the spatial organization and context of a first-generation Japanese American (Issei) community at Barneston, Washington...

Panopticism, Pines and POWS: Applying Conflict Landscape Tools to the Archaeology of Internment (2018)
The military terrain analysis system KOCOA (Key Terrain, Observation,Cover/concealment, Obstacles, and Avenues of approach), or OAKOC, or OCOKA was developed as part of the burgeoning discipline of military science around the start of the American Civil War. It is now part of the NPS’s American Battlefield Protection Program’s survey methodology, was introduced to conflict archaeology by Scott and McFeaters (2011:115-16) and Scott and Bleed (2011:47-49), and has been used as a tool for...
