Florida’s Fluted Paleoindian Points: A Reassessment of the Typology

Author(s): David Thulman

Year: 2018

Summary

Paleoindian points from Florida are different from the rest of the Southeast. Instrument-assisted fluting was never adopted, and Florida produced some apparently post-Clovis forms that are unlike any elsewhere. Several attempts have been made to sort out the myriad forms. This attempt uses landmark-based geometric morphometrics to more objectively distinguish fluted point forms.
