  • Assertions, Assumptions, and Early Horizon (Oak Grove) Settlement Patterns in Southern California

    Open AccessRoger C Owens, Roger Owen et al.ARTICLEAmerican Antiquity1967References: 9

    C. N. Warren makes six criticisms of a paper by Owen (Owen 1964), each of which can easily be rejected. The six comments, accompanied briefly by the grounds for their rebuttal, are: 1) that 'Early horizon' cannot be used to label the period, when in reality 'Early horizon' is as appropriate as any other term, and more so than many that are in use; 2) that a negligent comment is directed at a paper by W. J. Wallace, which though unimportant, is te…

  • Early Milling Stone Horizon (Oak Grove), Santa Barbara County, California

    Open AccessRoger C Owens, Roger Owen et al.ARTICLEAmerican Antiquity1964Cited by: 3References: 2

    Radiocarbon dates of 6880, 6980, 7270, and 6380 B.P. have been obtained for an Early Horizon site (Oak Grove) in the region of Santa Barbara, California. These dates permit the definite association of many cultural features which have previously been denied for the Oak Grove complex: a partial maritime economy, a core-and-flake industry, bone and shell technology, the use of asphaltum, and flexed burials. It is unlikely that the Early Horizon in …

  • Indians and Revolution

    Roger C Owens, Roger Owen et al.ARTICLEEthnohistory1963Cited by: 6

    By means of this communication from his military commander in the northwestern Territory of Baja California, the Dictator of Mexico, Porfirio Diaz, received notice that another area of his nation was to be torn by strife and revolution.

  • Paddle and Anvil Appearance of Some Sonoran Pottery

    Open AccessRoger C Owens, Roger Owen et al.ARTICLEAmerican Antiquity1957

    While engaged in recent ethnological field work in the San Miguel Valley of northeastern Sonora, I had occasion to observe a potter at work. This area, in aboriginal times, was inhabited by the Opata Indian tribe. Today it is predominantly mestizo racially, and culturally is a blend of aboriginal, early Spanish, and Mexican traits. I was assured by many people that the potter, who is extremely Indian in appearance, was 'pura indigina
