Usewear and Assemblage Composition: The Role of Endscrapers in Paleoindian Technological Organization (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Thomas Loebel.

Historically, microwear studies have focused around resolving issues centered on tool form and function. However, microwear also offers the opportunity to investigate site level activities surrounding "soft" technology, particularly in situations where organic preservation is poor or absent. In addition, when combined with a holistic approach to assemblage composition, microwear can provide larger insights into the organization of technology and larger patterns of adaptation. In this paper I...
