Incised Dentalium Shell Beads in the Plateau Culture Area
Whole dentalium and segments of dentalium shell have been used as beads in the Northwest Coast and interior Plateau culture areas both prehistorically and ethnographically. Incised whole shells, and no more than five known examples of incised segments, have been recovered from the Plateau, limited to archaeological contexts. A review of the reported incising clearly shows the use of design elements typical of the Plateau Culture Area as often als…

A Functional Classification for Artifacts from 19th and 20th Century Historical Sites
Artifact classification systems derived primarily from prehistoric archaeology are generally based on the material of manufacture. Such classification systems not only are not suited to historical archaeology, but actually retard the analysis and result in reports that are difficult to use for comparative purposes. The use of a classification based on the artifact function is suggested and several previous schemes are evaluated. The classificatio…

A Suggested Terminology and Classification for Burial Description
A review of previous systems for describing the disposal of the dead reveals basic inconsistencies in terminology and logic. A new classification is proposed that not only utilizes concepts and terminology wherever possible but also attempts to eliminate non-mutually exclusive categories and ambiguous terminology. The system is summarized in outline form to facilitate the use of the scheme as a field checklist during the excavation of burials

Disposal of the Dead at Point of Pines, Arizona
The analysis of 975 burials indicates that the inhumations of the Point of Pines region conformed to the flexed Mogollon pattern prior to A.D. 1000. Subsequently, extended burials appeared concurrently with a complex of traits diffused from areas to the north. At the same time, cremation became established as a part of the mortuary complex as a result of contact with Hohokam peoples to the south. Additional evidence of this contact consists of Ho…
Inventory of Prehistoric Southwestern Copper Bells: Additions and Corrections I
Inventory of Prehistoric Southwestern Copper Bells
More than 450 copper bells from 62 archaeological sites in the Southwest are summarized in tabular form, with site name and location, size and shape, chronological placement, present location, and published references listed for each bell. This tabulation provides a foundation for making typological comparisons of Southwest bells with those from the probable Mexican centers of origin
