Site occupation spans at Middle Ceramic Antelope Creek phase sites in the Southern Plains of Texas
Twenty-one AMS radiocarbon and optical stimulated luminescence assays from Early Ceramic (Plains Woodland) and Middle Ceramic (Antelope Creek) periods are reported from sites on the Cross Bar Ranch in Potter County, Texas including the first direct date on Phaseolus sp. remains in the Southern Plains. Calibrated radiocarbon dates and a single luminescence assay are used to evaluate site occupation spans during the Middle Ceramic Antelope Creek ph…
Texas Panhandle–Pueblo Interactions from the Thirteenth Through the Sixteenth Century
New correlation of stable carbon isotopes with changing late-Holocene fluvial environments in the Trinity River basin of Texas, USA
A late-Holocene alluvial sequence in north-central Texas has a 1 m thick buried cumulic soil with an A-C profile called the West Fork paleosol. It formed 2300 to 1000 yr BP and is a local equivalent of the Copan paleosol that is present throughout the southern US Great Plains. Stable carbon isotopes indicate that the paleosol and underlying gray clay formed under vegetation dominated by C 4 species (mean δ 13 C: −18.3 ± 0.3‰). Diverse paleoenviro…
National Register Testing at 41BQ285, Bosque County, Texas
Prewitt and Associates, Inc., conducted archeological test excavations at 41BQ285 in June 2006 for the Texas Department of Transportation under Texas Antiquities Permit No. 4102. Site 41BQ285, in southeastern Bosque County, was located during an archeological survey for the proposed replacement of the FM 56 bridge over the North Bosque River. It is a prehistoric campsite buried in a cumulic soil in the upper deposits of a late Holocene alluvial t…
Archeological Testing at 41TR170, along the Clear Fork of the Trinity River, Tarrant County, Texas
Archeologists from Geo-Marine, Inc., were subcontracted through Prewitt and Associates, Inc., of Austin to conduct National Register of Historic Places evaluative testing at archeological site 41TR170, located in Tarrant County, Texas. This work (Geo-Marine project number 30353.06.02) was conducted for the Environmental Affairs Division of the Texas Department of Transportation under contract/work authorization 57524SA006. The archeological remai…
The Spreen Cache
Testing at the Spreen Site, 41RN108, in west-central Texas, located a cache of 31 thin bifaces, 6 scrapers 1 point/knife base, and 1 core. All were made from locally available gravels. Eighty percent of the implements were broken. The types of breakage suggest that many, although not all, failed during manufacture. The context of the tools, the occurrence of heat-spalled tools, wear on edges of broken implements, temporally distinct resharpening …
Caprock Canyonlands Archeology
Archeological investigations at Lake Alan Henry, in Garza and Kent Counties, Texas, between 1987 and 1993 generated much archeological data relevant to interpreting late Holocene human activities. This review goes beyond the project boundary to synthesize the late prehistory and history of the Texas Panhandle Plains, with special emphasis on the north-south band of rugged canyons found along the Caprock Escarpment, herein defined as the Caprock C…
Experimental thermal discoloration and heat conductivity studies of caliche from eastern new mexico
Thermal experiments under laboratory conditions examined caliche discoloration and thermal conductivity/shock. the results provide information about caliche behavior under thermal conditions, which in some environmental settings will assist archaeologists in identifying discolored caliche from cultural activities as opposed to that from natural range fires. Generally, temperature intensity affects discoloration more than heat exposure duration. S…
The Historical Development of a Culture Complex
The Antelope Creek focus was first defined by Alex Krieger in 1946 based on second-hand information derived primarily from the WPA projects at Antelope Creek Ruin 22 and Alibates Ruin 28. Although subsequent fieldwork has changed some facets of the culture construct, much of the information in recent summaries still reflects the original definition. Recent integration of notes, maps, letters, journals, and photographs from early archaeological fi…
Buried Trees, Water Table Fluctuations, and 3000 Years of Changing Climate in West-Central Oklahoma
A sequence of radiocarbon-dated buried trees, buried soils, a carbonate zone, and a molluscan fauna from Carnegie Canyon indicate that between 3200 and 2600 yr B.P. the climate of west-central Oklahoma was drier than today. A high water table accompanied a period of moister climate 2000 to 1000 yr B.P. The water table dropped after 1000 yr B.P. due to a change toward dry conditions.
Architecture and Radiocarbon Dating of the Antelope Creek Focus
Recently, R. G. Campbell has proposed a model accounting for the architectural variability in the Antelope Creek focus of the Texas and Oklahoma panhandles. Although the model was drawn by extension from the adjacent Apishapa focus, it postulates a developmental sequence within Antelope Creek from isolated circular to isolated rectangular to contiguous multiunit structures. Only partial chronological support for the sequence was presented. This p…
