Stone Ornaments Used by Indians in the United States and Canada: Being a Description of Certain Charm Stones, Gorgets, Tubes, Bird Stones, and Problematical Forms (1917)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Warren K Moorehead.

J. Whittaker: [Title tells it: bannerstones etc viewed as ornaments and “problematical,” but with a few more interesting notes. All outdated, but nice illustrations.] C.H.Forbes produced Latin names like ‘geniculate’ for classif system. Manuf by peck and grind, drilling. Bar, bird, and boat forms = amulets. Birdstones mostly OH,NY, IN, MI, WI, Canada. Prob pre-mound. Winged objects [bannerstones] important because often repaired, well made, with dead. Unfinished ‘bipennate’ reused as hafted...

Stone tool reduction techniques (1985)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Jeffrey J Flenniken.

J. Whittaker: Killed goats with atlatl darts, noted breakage, morphological change when reworked. Claims point types not valid cultural/temporal markers because they can be changed with reworking! [Incorrect, because damaged pts are still reworked into forms current at the time of reworking. Well dismissed by Thomas 1986. The useful information in this article is the high damage rate, damage from animal motion (mostly bending fractures), damage to point bases, support for "Frison effect" of...

A Study of Lithic Biface Manufacturing Traces in the MacCorkle Bifurcate Tradition of Ohio: Investigation into the Atlatl and Dart System (2000)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Michael J Miller.

J. Whittaker: Unpublished paper for N. Kardulias class at Wooster College. Replicated MacCorkle points, tried deer hunt with atlatl, [limited experiments, rather vague conclusions]. Notes presence of “impact beveling” – beveled edges created or maintained by dart spin as strikes earth.

DOCUMENT Citation Only Grant H. Wilsson.

Survival By Hunting: Prehistoric Human Predators and Animal Prey (2004)

DOCUMENT Citation Only George C Frison.

J. Whittaker: Plains area, Paleoindian to historic, all major animal species, behavioral and hunting technique discussions from experience as hunter, rancher, archaeologist. Atlatls discussed briefly, photo of find from Spring Creek Cave, info on experiments with atlatls, Clovis pts and culled elephants. Stresses importance of knowing animal behavior for hunter and for arch trying to interpret past. It was easier to improve stalking and get close to animals, working with limitations of weapons...

Testing Predictions from the Hunter-Gatherer Hypothesis - 1: Sex Differences in the Motor Control of Hand and Arm (2007)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Geoff Sanders. Tom Walsh.

J. Whittaker: HGH = sex differences in task performance arose from natural selection favoring hunting-related skills in men and gathering related skills in women. Men should do better at throwing (arm muscles) and visual input from afar, women better at visual input from close, and fine hand manipulations. Test with computer cursor tracking test using hand or arm alone, and ball throwing and peg-board tests and find as predicted males do better with throwing and arms, females with hands and...

Testing Predictions from the Hunter-Gatherer Hypothesis - 2: Sex Differences in the Visual Processing of Near and Far Space (2007)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Geoff Sanders. Tom Walsh. Kamila Sinclair.

J. Whittaker: Laboratory based puzzle task in which participants saw their hands and puzzles in far or near space. Women performed better in near than far, men vice versa. Far and near space processed in ventral and dorsal cortical regions also known as “what” and “where” visual systems, so potentially sexually dimorphic cognitive abilities favored by evolution.

Throwing bird hunting sticks and cross bamboo boomerangs from the celebes (2009)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Luc Bordes.

Throwing Fire: Projectile Technology Through History (2002)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Alfred W Crosby.

J. Whittaker: Extended essay, reasonably well written, mostly accurate although superficial on details. Early sections favor Calvin’s theory of throwing as critical mental development [thankfully he only hints at Calvin’s handaxe throwing nonsense], and Bingham’s idea of group enforcement by throwing as promoting social development. Ethnographic accounts of remarkably accurate stone throwing. First spears at Schöningen 400,000 years ago. Upper Paleolithic - throwing stick or atlatl, adequate...
