Geoarchaeology of a Late Prehistoric Water Storage Feature at Pueblo Oso Negro, Chupadera Basin, New Mexico
The majority of functional interpretations regarding the identification of prehistoric water storage features are based on postulations rather than being founded on evidence that corroborates the presence of water. Pueblo Oso Negro is a late prehistoric settlement that includes a large depression located adjacent to the structural mounds. The lack of any apparent permanent water sources within proximity of the pueblo led to the speculation that t…
A new approach to determining the geological provenance of turquoise artifacts using hydrogen and copper stable isotopes
Trees, Chemistry, and Prehistory in the American Southwest
A geoarchaeological approach to the analysis of secondary lithic deposits
The methods and techniques presented provide a means for evaluating raw material characteristics in those situations where secondary deposits of lithic materials were exploited for stone tool production. Those aspects of secondary deposits measured or estimated include size, form, roundness, crystallinity, homogeneity, and raw material frequency. A comparison and discussion of two sampled areas in eastern New Mexico demonstrate how these procedur…
Variation in Lithic Assemblages
Results of analyses of experimentally generated core and debitage samples from novice and experienced flint workers are compared. Variability in type and number of errors, successful error corrections, and morphology of stylized tools appear to be related to level of expertise. Patterned variation in attributes exists which may be used to infer or test for aboriginal skill level
Folsom Biface Manufacture, Retooling, and Site Function at the Mitchell Locality of Blackwater Draw
Results of recent investigations at the Mitchell Localityin eastern New Mexico are reported. Current findings reveal that areas adjacent to Blackwater Locality No. 1 were utilized by Folsom hunter-gatherers as campsites, thus defusing long-held notions of Blackwater Draw as a Paleoindian kill site only. Our first year’s excavations have produced over 3,500 pieces of flake debitage, a multitude of finished stone implements, conjoinable biface frag…
Agate Basin Technology
An example of a serrate biface from the Agate Basin level of the Hell Gap site is examined from a technological and use-wear analytic perspective. Two possible explanations for marginal serration, to produce a "sawlike edge" or for platform isolation, are evaluated. Results of this evaluation suggest that platform isolation is a more plausible explanation in this case. This explanation may imply technological/cultural continuity between Folsom an…
