This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Although archaeological research in northwest Florida has yielded a rich assemblage of stone tools produced by late Pleistocene and early Holocene hunter-gatherers, little research has been undertaken to quantitatively define and describe the variable chert resources from which these tools were made.
