On "Modern Behavior" and the Evolution of Human Intelligence
Early food production in Africa
The study of early food production in sub‐Saharan Africa is at least as challenging as it is rewarding. Problems arise in large degree from the scarcity of relevant archeological material, particularly the remains of domesticated plants from prehistoric sites. This is attributable to several factors, including poor preservation, difficulties in recovering such material, and the limited amount of work so far invested in obtaining it. But, problems…

Prehistoric Cultures and Environments in the Late Quaternary of Africa
Twelve papers considering cultural responses to long-term environmental change in all parts of Africa (North Africa, the Nile Valley, the Sahara, Sudan, East Africa, the Congo Basin and Southern Africa)
Late quaternary paleogeography of Middle Europe and the Northcentral United States
The work summarized in this paper is an important component of a larger study concerned with the responses of prehistoric hunting‐gathering cultures to long term environmental change. the general approach involves comparing cultural systems and their transformations in Middle Europe and the northcentral United States during the late Pleistocene and early Holocene transition from glacial to interglacial conditions. This paper is specifically aimed…

The University of Massachusetts' Later Stone Age/Pastoral ‘Neolithic’ Comparative Study in Central Kenya
The preliminary results of an intensive thirteen-month field programme are reported. Components of this programme included (I) an archaeological survey of the central Rift Valley stratified using elevation and precipitation, (2) test excavations at nine sites, (3) a re-evaluation of the geological stratigraphy and archaeology of Nderit Drift, (4) a witness section at Lion Hill Cave, (5) a re-analysis of archaeological material from Gamble's Cave,…
Notes on Rock Art, and Cord-Rouletted Pottery at the Seronera Stone Bowl Site, Serengeti National Park, Tanzania
Notes on an Archaeological Reconnaissance of Mt. Elgon, Kenya
Seronera
Excavations at six localities at Seronera in the Serengeti National Park of northern Tanzania have revealed traces of prehistoric occupation from the “Middle Stone Age” to within the present millennium. A stratigraphical sequence of pottery styles was established; the earliest ware being of Gumban A type, here dated to around the first century B.C. Subsequent and perhaps partly contemporary with the Gumban A material is a previously unrecorded wa…
Early Pottery and Other Finds from Kisii District, Western Kenya
An archaeological reconnaissance of Kisii District revealed traces of lithic industries of “Late Stone Age” affinity, of rock engravings, and of two previously unrecorded pottery wares. Kisii Soft Ware is a crude ware with varied rim-forms and decoration. Button-Necked Pottery is less frequently encountered and is characterised by appliqué bosses in the concave necks of the vessels. BNP is incontrovertibly associated with iron-working technology:…
