This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Environmental studies associated with the Dead Horse Lateral Pipeline project of Grand County Utah afforded archaeologists from Cultural Resource Analysts Inc. an opportunity to intensively study the cultural resources within and around the pipeline corridor. This multifaceted research examined both micro analyses associated with individual sites, artifacts,...

The Swag Site (38AL137) was recorded during the initial survey of the Allendale chert quarries by Albert Goodyear and Tommy Charles in 1984. While subsequent work focused on the Topper and Big Pine Tree sites, the Swag site was overlooked until a systematic survey conducted in 2015 identified several localities with buried archaeological deposits. In May 2016 and March 2017, further excavations at the Swag Site produced artifacts that are comparable to Clovis components at Topper,...

This is an abstract from the "Archaeology from Western North America" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Cooper’s Ferry Site (10IH73) in western Idaho provides a unique synchronic perspective into the lives of the Western Stemmed Tradition (WST) people in the late Pleistocene/early Holocene period. Pit cache features previously excavated at the site provide key information and reliable dates to inform the understanding of the lifeways of...

This is an abstract from the "Defining and Measuring Diversity in Archaeology" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. For nearly 100 years, archaeologists have commented on the perceived morphological diversity in projectile points dating to the Paleoindian period in eastern North America, though the significance of this diversity and what explains it remain underexplored topics. Hesitancy to address these broader questions is, we argue, attributable to...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Originally modelled as a down-the-line exchange system from the desert to the settled zone, analyses of previously unpublished materials synthesized with newer materials indicate that the flint tabular scraper production and distribution system was a complex mixture of local desert consumption and long distance trade of objects that changed in function, role,...

It has been argued that surface assemblages may provide insights into questions regarding large scale patterns of human behavior such as mobility and stone tool transport. However, excavated material is often preferred over surface assemblages due to concerns of potential biases introduced by the process of exposure. Here, we examine this claim by comparing measures of stone tool transport between surface and excavated assemblages. Surface and excavated lithic assemblages were collected from the...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. We examine techno-morphological attributes of Gravettian tools from four sites in the Dordogne region of France to argue truncated elements were not recycled broken Gravette points. Truncated elements were the focus of a specific chaîne opératoire to produce tools for composite hunting technology.Our previous work at La Grotte Seize and La Ferrassie support...

This is an abstract from the "Debitage Analysis: Case Studies, Successes, and Cautionary Tales" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Recent researches have shown the presence of technological and, in some cases, chronological discontinuities in the archaeological record of Central-South Patagonia from the Pleistocene–Holocene transition to the Late Holocene. Most of these changes have been recognized on lithic tools. In this presentation, we use...

Know-how is an archaeologically observable counterpart of the knowledge of technological agents, as it is the material capacity of an agent to apply known techniques. Both elements are not necessarily in exact equivalence, as an agent’s aptitude and willingness to apply techniques may not reflect their full knowledge. Know-how is identifiable by the stigmata left by applied techniques on artifacts and materials. Separating aptitude (or "skill") from the examination and interpretation of...

The research presented here works from the proposition that patterns in lithic assemblages reflect human organizational strategies. Preliminary investigations of 26La4434, a single component Prearchaic site in Grass Valley, reveal a pattern of large game exploitation in proximity to a Pleistocene shoreline. Standard metric, morphological, and edge-wear analysis of the flaked stone assemblage is used to evaluate whether the site facilitated access to local wetland resources and large game...

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. Lithic technological organization is based on the landscape-scale distribution and availability of resources. During the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), the landscape off the southern coast of South Africa was a different world than it is today. At its most extreme, the...

This is an abstract from the "Archaeology of Alaska, the Gateway to the Americas" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Our understanding of the origins of early Alaskan assemblage variability is challenged by the co-occurrence or absence of two key lithic technologies—microblades and bifacial projectile points—and the variety of morphologies and production strategies within these categories. Alaskan archaeological complexes that existed prior to the...
