Le Bâton de Commandement (1965)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Leon Underwood.

J. Whittaker: [Odd article, not very useful. Begins with irrelevant and muddled rant on failure of science to recognize art and the subjective.] By labeling baton de commandement a "magic" object, its function was ignored. Not magic, not shaft straightener. Early cave art (Altamira) static, while later (Lascaux) dynamic, reflecting new weapon: baton as spear thrower. Holes comparable to grips on Eskimo versions, but Eskimo are wood, cruder, throw larger spear. [Illustrations show his...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Courtney Birkett.

Les Faons aux Oiseaux (2002)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Emmanuel Demoulin.

J. Whittaker: [In French] Of about 100 Upper Paleolithic European spearthrowers, 7 from France represent the “fawn with birds” motif [a hornless ungulate peering backward over its shoulder at the hook, which is usually interpreted as showing a bird pecking at a fecal pellet emerging from the anus.] All are from Pyrenees and dating to the middle Magdalenian, C14 dated 15,340-13,280 BP. There are two complete (Mas d’Azil and Bedheilhac) and five partial. The facial and back markings indicate...

Light versus Heavy Darts: Hunting Strategies of the Basketmaker and Other Atlatl Wielding Indians (2008)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Devin Pettigrew.

J. Whittaker: Summarizes mechanics: lever action, not spring effect, needs flexible dart. Modern hunters using 8 oz (250 gm) darts, but BM equip was light. Penetration experiment on cow carcass. Wooden darts heavier than cane, but dart can be changed by different foreshaft + point combinations. Tried different woods to split, and saplings. Chose Dogwood with oak foreshafts for heavy darts (Berg 8 oz, Frison 12 oz) and box elder for lighter White Dog Cave dart replicas. Distribution of BM...

The Loss and Re-introduction of Bow-and-arrow Technology: A Study from the Northern European Late Palaeolithic (2009)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Felix Riede.

J. Whittaker: Large tanged Bromme pts + Bromme techno-complex sandwiched between earlier Federmesser and later Ahrensburgian, both with small points. Experiments by Fischer show Bromme pts usable as large arrowheads.Rozoy says bow allowed recolonization of N Europe. But B pts more likely reversion to atlatl with loss of cultural knowledge at population bottleneck after eruption of Laacher See volcano 12, 920 BP. Fischer experiments not quantified enough, show typical projectile fractures on B...

Modeling of the Impacts and Sustainability of Ancient Maya Hunting: An Interdisciplinary Ecological and Archaeological Study (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Erin Thornton. Daniel Thornton. Lucy Perera. Jacklyn Rumberger.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The environmental impact of sizable Late Classic ancient Maya populations remains a persistent question in archaeology. To date, studies of ancient Maya environmental impacts have focused primarily on land-cover change and the conversion of forest to agricultural fields, orchards, and habitation areas. In contrast, few empirical studies have focused on the...
