Crossing the Line: The Incised Stones of the Gault Archaeological Site
Author(s): D. Clark Wernecke
Year: 2019
Summary
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.
Previous publication has dealt with the discovery of incised stones at the Gault Archaeological Site and the artifacts of early Paleoindian age. To date, the project has identified 146 stones with incised lines and designs on them from provenienced collections, unprovenienced collections and collections in private hands. The artifacts are on both limestone tabular cobbles and pebbles and the cortex of chert flakes. This presentation will give some background on the site and our identification methodology as well as summarize the data from the stones not previously reported focusing on those with good provenience.
