Recycling on Fishtail Points: Morphological and Fatty Acids Analysis (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Nora Flegenheimer. Natalia Mazzia. Celeste Weitzel. Salomón Hocsman.

Fishtail points constitute a flexible type that exhibits morphological variability, in part unrelated to spatial and chronological factors. Assemblages from the Argentinian pampas include small, medium and large points, produced either on a flake blank or by bifacial thinning on a biface, with or without fluting, with rounded or angular shoulders, that is, presenting variable sizes, design and manufacturing techniques. These variations were partly the result of the production of objects intended...

Reevaluating the Archaic/Woodland Transition in the Northeast (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Jaclyn Nadeau.

This paper is the result of an ongoing research project into the technological and social changes occurring in northeastern North America from the Late Archaic to the Late Woodland. This dynamic period in the region’s prehistory is traditionally marked as the boundary between mobile hunter-gatherer-fishers and ceramic-producing horticulturalists. The overall effect of these changes on regional populations is still, however, unclear. I argue that to better understand this period we must couple...

The Reeve Ruin of Southeastern Arizona (1958)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Charles C. Di Peso.

Archaeologists interested in the prehistory of the Gila-Salt drainage of southern Arizona proposed that a group of Pueblo people termed the Salado, moved into the desert area of northern Pimeria Alta sometime during the Classic Period of the Hohokam historical continuum. Although this hypothesis has become a tradition, certain researchers have, on occasion, questioned its validity. The Amerind Foundation, Inc., after working for a number of years in historic contact sites in Pimeria Alta, turned...


Reexamining the Organization of Ornament Production at Chaco Canyon: Insights from Pueblo Bonito’s Lapidary Tool Assemblage (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Hannah Mattson.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Several decades ago, the NPS Chaco Project revealed evidence for widespread, small-scale ornament manufacture at small house sites in Chaco Canyon, as well as possible workshop-scale production at two locations. As consumption of finished jewelry items is clearly concentrated at great houses, it was suggested that lapidary production was part of a larger...


Refining the Projectile Point Chronology of Western Pennsylvania during the Transitional Period (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Christopher Thompson.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Periods and typologies are artificial boxes that archaeologist use to classify cultures and the artifacts that they used, consequently there is a need to re-evaluate old paradigms as new data become available, particularly when these paradigms are internally inconsistent. This paper looks at the Transitional period in western Pennsylvania and analyzes both the...


Regional Influences on Cliff Phase Ground Stone in the Upper Gila Area (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Jonathan Schaefer. Leslie Aragon.

Regional Influences on Cliff Phase Ground Stone in the Upper Gila Area Jonathan Schaefer and Leslie Aragon Ground stone tools are a productive means of studying subsistence and technology practices in the American Southwest. Excavations at the Gila River Farm Site and other nearby settlements have provided a large collection of ground stone objects used for various tasks. Here, we evaluate the use of the tools from these sites and compare their morphology to tools recovered elsewhere in the...


Regional Patterns in Lithic Procurement and Production in the Middle Usumacinta (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Alejandra Roche Recinos.

This is an abstract from the "Dynamic Frontiers in the Archaeology of Chiapas" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Middle Usumacinta River was a politically fragmented and contested region during the Classic Maya period, with neighboring polities vying for territory, prestige, and wealth. Recent archaeological and epigraphic work is continuing to delineate the shifting borders and alliances of this time period, with the goal of understanding the...


A Regional Perspective on the Final MSA in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa (2021)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Gregor Bader. Lyn Wadley. Christian Sommer. Nicholas Conard.

This is an abstract from the "From Veld to Coast: Diverse Landscape Use by Hunter-Gatherers in Southern Africa from the Late Pleistocene to the Holocene" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The final MSA of southern Africa (~40–28ka) represents one of the most understudied technocomplexes in this part of the world. Researchers often focused on earlier time periods or those shortly after, encompassing the transition between Middle and Later Stone Age....


The Rein Basin Chert Mine, Styria, Austria: A Neolithic Center for Tabular Chert Quarrying (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Michael Brandl. Daniel Modl.

Since 2009, the Neolithic chert quarrying site in the Rein Basin in Styria (Austria) has been the focus of a multidisciplinary research project. A mining area for tabular chert, approximately 10 hectares in size, was established at this locale in the course of a series of archaeological excavations, core soundings and a geophysical prospection. At Rein, tabular chert occurs in residual loams and mined in up to four meter deep shafts. According to this evidence, the site is only the second...


The Relationship between Knapping Technology and Stone Use in the MSA Landscape of Northern Butana in Sudan (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Ahmed Nassr. Zeljko Rezek.

This is an abstract from the "Variability: A Reassessment of Its Meaning, Afforded Range, and the Relation to Process" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In 2022 we recorded more than 40 variously dense stone artifact concentrations of the Middle Stone Age in northern Butana between the Nile Valley and the Atbara paleolake in east-central Sudan. In general, the entire region between the Upper Egypt and the Ethiopian Highlands has seen very little...

Renewed Investigation of Sites within the Black Mesa Region, Oklahoma Panhandle (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Alesha Marcum-Heiman. Leland Bement. Kristen Carlson. Brian Carter.

Early archaeological investigations in the Black Mesa area of Oklahoma were geared toward the discovery of additional evidence of "Early Man" in North America. The 1926 discovery of the Folsom type site encouraged E.B. Renaud to explore caves along the Dry Cimarron just 50 kilometers downstream. Rather than discovering additional Paleoindian sites, the University of Denver’s surveys documented numerous post-Folsom occupations. Despite the early documentation of these sites, systematic...
