PROTEIN RESIDUE ANALYSIS OF STONE TOOLS AND A FEATURE SAMPLE FROM SITES HHOW 49, HHOW 54, HHOW 55, HHOX 11, AND HHOX 15, NORTHEASTERN ALBERTA, CANADA

Author(s): Chad Yost

Year: 2009

Summary

A variety of stone tools, including scrapers, projectile points and flakes, as well as, a feature fill soil sample, were submitted for protein residue analysis from a cluster of sites in northeastern Alberta. Previous protein residue analysis of artifacts from this area by PaleoResearch Institute (PRI) have resulted in good rates of positive protein reactivity, possibly due to good preservation from low biological soil activity. Results of this analysis should provide valuable animal subsistence information.
