  • The Nelson stone tool cache, North-Central Ohio, U.S.A

    Open AccessM I Eren, Michelle Bebber et al.ARTICLEJournal of Archaeological Science…2021

    The Nelson stone tool cache was discovered in 2008 in Mount Vernon, Ohio. The cache does not include any diagnostic materials, and independent age control is unavailable. Although aspects of its 164 bifaces are suggestive of a Clovis affiliation – including the occasional occurrence of unmistakable flute scars – nearly all are in the early- to mid-stages of production, there are no definitive finished Clovis fluted points that would make it possi…

  • Antelope Springs

    M T Boulanger, Robert J Patten et al.ARTICLEPaleoAmerica2020Cited by: 5References: 17

    The Antelope Springs Folsom locality is located near Trout Creek Pass, which connects South Park, a high elevation basin in the Rocky Mountains, with the headwaters region of the Arkansas River. The pass is also the source of an eponymous jasper that dominates the small, surface collection of Folsom points, preforms, tools, and debitage we report on here. The Antelope Springs assemblage was focused on the reduction and replacement of a stone tool…

  • Test, Model, and Method Validation

    Open AccessM I Eren, Stephen J Lycett et al.ARTICLEEthnoarchaeology2016

    For many years, intuition and common sense often guided the transference of patterning ostensibly evident in experimental flintknapping results to interpretations of the archaeological record, with little emphasis placed on hypothesis testing, experimental variables, experimental design, or statistical analysis of data. Today, archaeologists routinely take steps to address these issues. We build on these modern efforts by reviewing several import…

  • More on the Rumor of “Intentional Overshot Flaking” and the Purported Ice-Age Atlantic Crossing

    Open AccessM I Eren, Robert J Patten et al.ARTICLELithic Technology2014Cited by: 17References: 26

    Lohse, Collins, and Bradley ignore or misrepresent the arguments we have made concerning “controlled” overshot flaking and the purported Ice-Age Atlantic Crossing. Here, we summarize our previous work and explain again how it directly tests the explicit claims of Stanford and Bradley (2012; Bradley and Stanford 2004, 2006). We also correct the inaccuracies and false accusations of Lohse, Collins, and Bradley, and refute their belief that argument…

  • Push” Vs “Pull” Flaking

    Robert J PattenARTICLELithic Technology1978Cited by: 3

    Techniques of pressure flaking are bounded by two extremes which are defined by the manner in which the force is transmitted from the pressor
