Late glacial and Early Holocene migrations, and Middle Holocene settlement on the lower isthmian land-bridge
Following white-tailed deer to the hilltop
Niche construction and optimal foraging theory in Neotropical agricultural origins
Radiocarbon chronology of terminal Pleistocene to middle Holocene human occupation in the Middle Cauca Valley, Colombia
Radiocarbon chronology of early human settlement on the Isthmus of Panama (13,000–7000 BP) with comments on cultural affinities, environments, subsistence, and technological change
The cultural and chronological context of early Holocene maize and squash domestication in the Central Balsas River Valley, Mexico
Molecular evidence indicates that the wild ancestor of maize is presently native to the seasonally dry tropical forest of the Central Balsas watershed in southwestern Mexico. We report here on archaeological investigations in a region of the Central Balsas located near the Iguala Valley in Guerrero state that show for the first time a long sequence of human occupation and plant exploitation reaching back to the early Holocene. One of the sites ex…
Starch grain evidence for the preceramic dispersals of maize and root crops into tropical dry and humid forests of Panama
The Central American isthmus was a major dispersal route for plant taxa originally brought under cultivation in the domestication centers of southern Mexico and northern South America. Recently developed methodologies in the archaeological and biological sciences are providing increasing amounts of data regarding the timing and nature of these dispersals and the associated transition to food production in various regions. One of these methodologi…

Prehistoric human adaptations to the seasonally dry forests of Panama
Since 1981 research in the Santa Maria Basin, an area of seasonally dry forest on the Pacific coast of Panama, has shown that collating environmental records with regional archaeological surveys enables us to identify small dispersed populations in New World tropical forests. Original multiple working hypotheses are reevaluated. Data show that: 1) the watershed has been occupied continuously since 11,000 BP; 2) population increases took place c. …

Adaptive Radiations in Prehistoric Panama
Early Subsistence Patterns along the Pacific Coast of Central Panama
A History of Flint-Knapping Experimentation, 1838-1976 [and Comments and Reply]
The earliest experiments were conducted to discover how to produce chipped stone tools using nonmetallic knapping tools. By 1880, the major perceived problems were solved: ancient stone tools were made by direct stone percussion, later tools might be finished by pressure flaking with an antler tine, and flakes, since they could be duplicated by natural forces, should be accepted as man-made only when found in quantity and made to a pattern. In th…
