Site Formation Processes at the Hester Site (22MO569)
The Hester Site (22MO569) is a multi‐component archeological site located in northeastern Mississippi with occupations spanning the Late Pleistocene through Holocene chronozones. The site was initially investigated by the Mississippi Department of Archives and History (MDAH) in the 1970s and is notable for being a rare example of a stratified, open‐air site dating to the Late Pleistocene in the American Southeast. However, while the temporally di…
Early-Holocene Stemmed Bifaces from the Hester Site (22MO569) in the Upper Tombigbee River Valley, Mississippi
In the American Southeast, the most widely cited chronologies place the first appearance of stemmed-based points at the onset of the Middle Holocene (∼8200 calendar years ago), much later in comparison to the Great Basin and Pacific Northwest, where stemmed points appear to be co-eval with the Clovis culture (∼13,000 calendar years ago), or even older. However, the stemmed “Jude” point found in northern and central Mississippi may be an exception…
Placing radiocarbon dating at the center of collective archaeological practice
Radiocarbon analysis is a common tool used to obtain the absolute ages of materials from archaeological contexts. This method underlies the basis of most archaeological chronologies across the globe, allowing us to better understand the temporality of past events. However, in the American Southeast, research by a small number of academic archaeologists who are interested in specific kinds of sites, time periods, and research questions drive radio…
Early Holocene landscape use in the upper Tombigbee River valley
We draw on the distribution of recorded archaeological sites, temporally diagnostic projectile points, sources of lithic raw materials, and fossil pollen projections to evaluate existing models for Early Holocene landscape use in the upper Tombigbee River valley (UTRV) in northeast Mississippi. We then discuss the applicability of Anderson and Hanson (1988), Daniel (2001), and Hollenbach (2009) in gaining a better understanding of early hunter-ga…
