The Lone Spruce Site, a High-Altitude Seasonal Camp of the Upper Colorado River Basin (2023)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. 5GA2312, the Lone Spruce Site, is located within the upper reaches of the Colorado River Basin in Grand County, Colorado, at 8,200 feet above sea level. The site was partially excavated in 2016 when 5,021 artifacts, 32% being identified as various types of scrapers, were recovered. Ninety-five percent of the assemblage is of Table Mountain jasper, which is...
Low-Cost Centripetal Technology in the LSA of Southern Mozambique (2024)
This is an abstract from the "Expedient Technological Behavior: Global Perspectives and Future Directions" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Centripetal lithic technology, including various forms of Levallois technique, is very common in the African MSA. This technology is commonly identified by prepared core technology, where striking platforms are fully prepared to produce a variety of blanks. In Mozambique, both Levallois and prepared discoidal...
A Low-cost Method for Measuring Ridge Width on Lithic Artifacts for the Purpose of Evaluating Artifact Condition (2024)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. To reconstruct the life history of an artifact one must understand how the tool was made, used, but also what happened to the artifact after it was discarded. For stone tool analysis, evaluating lithic artifact condition helps reconstruct this life history through insight into site exposure, assemblage integrity, and post-depositional processes. Multiple...

Luis Borrero´s Model of Peopling of Patagonia: Some Examples of his Application in Lithic and Mobility Studies (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Patagonian Evolutionary Archaeology and Human Paleoecology: Commending the Legacy (Still in the Making) of Luis Alberto Borrero in the Interpretation of Hunter-Gatherer Studies of the Southern Cone" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Borrero's work has greatly influenced Patagonian archaeology. Through his papers and classes, he strongly influenced new generations of archaeologists. In the case of lithic studies, his...
A Macroscopic Lithic Analysis of South Mountain Metarhyolite Quarries: A Focus on Intersite and Intrasite Assemblage Comparisons of the Green Cabin Site (36AD0569), South Mountain, Pennsylvania (2023)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Metarhyolite from the South Mountain Section of Pennsylvania has been utilized by indigenous groups in the Middle Atlantic Region since the Archaic Period. The resource has been the focus of widespread quarrying activities, spurring an entire Native American complex of quarries, which are restricted to a relatively confined geographic region where...
Made in a Marketplace: A Comparison of Stone Tools Crafted from Local and Non-Local Raw Materials in Classic Maya Marketplaces of the Mopan River Valley, Belize (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Where Is Provenance? Bridging Method, Evidence, and Theory for the Interpretation of Local Production" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Is a stone tool crafted from a raw material found naturally occurring only outside the geographic zone and political control of a settlement, but made in the site’s central marketplace, a non-local or local good? In this paper, I present examples of such a situation at two Classic Maya...

The Magdalenian-Azilian Transition: Contributions from the Rocher de l’Impératrice Rock-shelter (Brittany, France) (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Succeeding the Magdalenian, the Azilian is one of the last techno-complexes of the Western Europe Upper Paleolithic. This period is characterized by major socio-cultural changes illustrated by techno-economic but also symbolic changes. One of the most famous elements of this process is the abandonment of naturalistic figurative art on portable pieces or on...

Making Stone Tools to Connect with Past People: A Case Study in Active Learning about Lithics with the Fernandeño Tataviam Band of Mission Indians (2018)
Studies of embodied learning show that physical experiences which engage the sensory and motor processing parts of the brain enhance understanding and retention of concepts. Making an obsidian flake, rather than just seeing pictures of stone tools, is a memorable experience that can provide a tangible connection to the practices of past people. We present a case study in public outreach and pedagogy for the Fernandeño Tataviam Band of Mission Indians of Southern California. The original concept,...

The Manufacture of Northern Fluted Points: A Production Sequence Hypothesis (2018)
Fluted projectile points have been found in the archaeological record of the North American Arctic for over 50 years. Only recently, however, have fluted points found in buried contexts associated with dateable materials and included in region-wide comparative analyses provided chronological, morphological, and technological evidence to support the cohesion of the Arctic specimens as their own fluted variant: the Northern Fluted Complex (NFC). Few sites have provided the opportunity to observe...

Maritime Archaic Spearpoints: A New Examination of Their Context and Chronology (2018)
This research focuses on the morphology, chronology, and provenience of nipple-based spear points found in Newfounland and Labrador. Nipple-based points are primarily thought to date between 7500-6000 B.P. and are associated with the early Maritime Archaic tradition, Newfoundland and Labrador’s earliest inhabitants. A recent find of a nipple-based point at the Stock Cove site (CKAl-3) in eastern Newfoundland suggests that, based on a series of new AMS dates, the chronology of this point type...
