Taphonomy of Beringian Karstic Sites
A recent analysis of the mammal bone assemblages from Bluefish Caves I and II suggests that humans hunted horses and caribou in the northern Yukon Territory of Canada as early as 23,500 years ago. Here we use a taphonomic approach to test whether humans were also active at Cave III. We identify several species of herbivores and carnivores – including the American cheetah – and suggest that carnivores were the principal agent responsible for the a…
Avian Taphonomy at Bluefish Caves, Yukon, Canada
A recent analysis of the mammal bones from Bluefish Caves (northern Yukon Territory, Canada) suggests that modern humans visited the site on several occasions for short-term hunting activities as early as 23,500 calibrated years BP. Here we apply taphonomic methods to the avian remains recovered from the caves. Seventeen genera of birds are identified in the assemblage, including 450 ptarmigan individuals (Lagopus lagopus and Lagopus muta). We di…
Peopling the Americas
A widely accepted model for the peopling of the Americas postulates a source population in the Northeast Asian maritime region, which includes northern Japan. The model is based on similarities in stone artifacts (stemmed points) found in North American sites dating as early as 15,000 years ago and those of comparable age in Japan and neighboring regions of Northeast Asia. Here we show, on the basis of data and analyses in biological anthropology…
Revisiting the mammoth bone modifications from Bluefish Caves (YT, Canada)
Bluefish Cave II (Yukon Territory, Canada)
The faunal material of Bluefish Cave II (Yukon Territory, Canada), estimated up to 25,000 14C yr BP, is described here through a zooarchaeological and systematic taphonomic analysis to resolve issues about cultural activities at the site and the first entry of humans from Siberia into Alaska/Yukon. While most of the remains appear to be the result of non-human activity, a small component of the assemblage may be human modified
