Typology, Technology, and Chronology of Great Basin Dart Points
Experimental analysis Of plains Grooved abraders
The behavioral processes of the manufacture, use, and rejuvenation of arrow-shaft, pointed tool, and flintknapping abraders are examined using ethnographic, archaeological, and experimental data. Attributes of these abrader tools are described during various stages of experimentation. Analysis shows that grooved wear patterns on these tools allow certain functional interpretations. The archaeological visibility of prehistoric behavioral processes…
Morphological Projectile Point Typology
Morphological typologies of projectile points in North America have often been employed as time-sensitive prehistoric cultural markers. This article demonstrates that the contingencies of point manufacture, hafting, use, and rejuvenation create morphological changes that may render questionable use of these morphological typologies as prehistoric cultural markers. Thirty projectile points were replicated according to the attributes of a commonly …

The Past, Present, and Future of Flintknapping
Infrastructures are material forms that allow for the possibility of exchange over space. They are the physical networks through which goods, ideas, waste, power, people, and finance are trafficked. In this article I trace the range of anthropological ...Read More
Reevaluation of the Lindenmeier Folsom
This article reports on a continuing study of the stoneworking technology of the Lindenmeier Folsom. Production time, sequential stages of manufacture, and fluting technique are examined and discussed on the basis of extensive replication and experimentation, as well as of macroscopic and microscopic analysis of one of the original Lindenmeier Folsom assemblages. Results of this study indicate that simplicity of technique, along with desired form…
Thermally Altered Novaculite and Stone Tool Manufacturing Techniques
Thermally Altered Novaculite and Stone Tool Manufacturing Techniques
This paper describes a study of the physical origins of improved flaking properties, called flakeability, for novaculite, a material exploited for stone tool manufacture by the peoples of prehistoric Arkansas, Missouri, Texas, and Louisiana. Experimentation in thermal pretreatment and ways to detect and discriminate the results of this pretreatment were carried out. The criteria derived for distinguishing this alteration in the novaculite are eas…
A Comparison of the Flaking Qualities of Nehawka Chert
In an attempt to provide objective measures of the changes induced in chert by heat treatment, ten pairs of preforms were made, and one of each pair was heat treated, using a probable aboriginal technique. Paired bifaces were then chipped from the preforms. Differences in the flaking qualities of the heated and the unheated materials were noted. The bifaces made with the heat treated material were significantly thinner in cross-section than those…
