Here, the historically documented, early sixteenth-century Spanish exploration of the American Southeast is used as a model for the kind of archaeological evidence to be expected for such…

Through questionna…
Waste Not, Want Not—Differential Lithic Utilization and Efficiency of Use
Prehistoric people utilized different lithic raw materials differently. The differential “efficiency of use” as measured by average debitage flake weight and average percentage of flake edge retouched should differ as a function of raw materials' value. Value is a product of inherent qualities in the stone including ease of flake production and edge characteristics. Value is also a function of the labor input necessary for a material's procuremen…
