The Bozovich family archaeological collection contains over 5,000 surface-collected artifacts from 712 sites in southwestern Wyoming during the period between 1932 and 1992. All the artifacts were cataloged with their own catalog number . Data were then entered into an IBM-PC computer using the Dbase III (r) software program. Specific objectives were to: 1. Place all artifacts into approximate archaeological time periods. 2. Make sets of tables for various time periods on: artifact types;...

Historic Japanese Sites of Southwestern Wyoming Revised and Revisited: Japanese Rock Art and Tombstones: Immigration Patterns on the Northern Plains and in the Rocky Mountains (2001)

Obsidian Utilization in Prehistoric Jackson Hole (1995)
We used X-Ray fluorescence (XRF) spectroscopy to identify nine obsidian sources used by the prehistoric inhabitants of Jackson Hole, Wyoming.

The diachronic pattern of sources used allows consideration of the influences in acquisition, distribution, and use of obsidian.
