The Medieval Climatic Anomaly (MCA) occurred from approximately AD 900-1300, affecting climate worldwide. In many regions, this climate change initiated behavioral shifts, resulting in new adaptations to the environment. Our goal is to investigate the potential reorganization of group mobility in the Sand Hills of central Nebraska during this period by examining the exploitation of clay sources over time. As little archaeological investigation has been done in this region, new techniques are...
Reinvestigating the Chronostratigraphy of the Early Paleoindian Components of Hell Gap, Locality 1 (2018)
Hell Gap in eastern Wyoming contains the most complete Paleoindian cultural sequence in North America, providing insight into long-term landscape use and available resources exploited by early Americans. A well-developed chronology allows for clearer and more accurate comparisons of both cultural information and geologic data. Although Hell Gap is well studied and has provided archaeologists a wealth of information regarding the Paleoindian period, questions remain regarding the timing of events...
