Late Classic Maya Bone Tool Production and Use at Ucanal, Guatemala (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Carolyn Freiwald. Christina Halperin. Camille Dubois-Francoeur. Jacob Harris.

This is an abstract from the "Recent Advances in Zooarchaeological Methods" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Bone tool workshops are rare in Mesoamerica, but both finished products and debitage suggest that human bones (includes images) were used alongside whitetail deer, turkey, and other species to produce tools such as needles and awls, as well as ornaments. The debris of Late Classic bone production was recovered from the Maya site of Ucanal,...


Late Pleistocene Faunal Utilization: Some Current Thoughts on Paleoindian Diet and Tool Source Selection (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only C. Hemmings.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Accumulated evidence regarding the range of prey utilization and tools made from animal remains is rapidly growing and overdue for a summary consideration of Clovis and Pre-Clovis sites in North America. This discussion is heavily weighted with data from Florida sites along the Wakulla and Aucilla Rivers, and the Old Vero Site. Recent proboscidean data from...

Material and Form Effects on Fishhook Durability: Experimental Assessment of Late Pleistocene Fishhooks (2025)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Jacob Baldino.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2025: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 90th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Although fish-hooks are a global technological phenomenon over 20,000 years old, bone and shell fish-hooks are under-researched experimentally. In this study we assess whether differences in material and form produce significant differences in hook durability. Consensus artifact models representing averages of Late Pleistocene fish-hook assemblages from...

Metalheads about the Polar Sea: Metal-Use in the Eastern Arctic and Its Significance for Understanding Broader Interaction Dynamics (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Patrick Jolicoeur.

This is an abstract from the "From Hard Rock to Heavy Metal: Metal Tool Production and Use by Indigenous Hunter-Gatherers in North America" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The earliest metal use in the Eastern North American Arctic comes from the Pre-Dorset period (ca. 5000–2500 cal BP). However, evidence for the material being used regularly and outside its immediate source regions emerges millennia later in the Late Dorset period (ca. 1500–700...

Paleoindian Osseous Barbed Weaponry in the Intermountain West: Distribution, Chronology, and Function (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only William Jerrems. Richard Rosencrance.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Some have suggested that osseous projectile weaponry preceded that of stone-that bone, antler and even ivory barbed points and sagaie (osseous rods) might have been the hunting and fishing weapons of choice for the earliest peoples. Early technology using meticulously fashioned barbed osseous materials for weaponry takes us back to Katanda, Zaire 95 kya, is...


A Paleolithic Bird Figurine from the Lingjing Site, Henan, China (2021)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Luc Doyon. Zhanyang Li. Hui Fang. Francesco d’Errico.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Carving a figurine requires the ability to mentally visualize a volume in matter and create symmetries in a three-dimensional space. During the Paleolithic, such objects were likely made to be transported, curated, manipulated, and hung on clothing. Thus far, no instances of three-dimensional portable art were documented in East Asia before the Neolithic. We...


Penetration Efficiency of Bone Projectile Points: Experimental Analysis Based on Late Pleistocene Artifacts from Sheriden Cave, Ohio (2025)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Savannah Hough.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2025: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 90th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This experimental study assesses the penetration efficiency of bone projectile points. Based on the well-preserved Late Pleistocene artifacts from Sheriden Cave, Ohio, it investigates how well this particular style of tool functions as a projectile tip. A total of 120 bone points were recreated from bovine femurs based on original casts of the artifacts....


Perishable Tools from Fort Rock Cave, Oregon (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Andrew Boehm.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The dry caves of central Oregon provide exceptional preservation of Paleoindian-aged perishable artifacts.
