Competition drives the evolution of emergent neutrality in the dietary niches of mammalian herbivores
Shape as a function of time + raw material + burial context? An exploratory analysis of Perdiz arrow points from the ancestral Caddo area of the American Southeast
Temporal assignments carry substantive weight, and archaeologists regularly assume that artefacts from discrete temporal units may differ in ways that convey changes in preference or behaviour. Similarly, archaeologists regularly assume that raw material differences articulate with stone tool morphology, and the role of differential raw material quality and preference associated with Caddo lithic technology remains largely unexplored. Whether a p…

Stable Carbon Isotopes from Archaic Human Remains in the Chihuahuan Desert and Central Texas
The distribution of δ13C values from human remains recovered in the eastern Chihuahuan Desert and central Texas demonstrates the existence of at least two distinct coeval dietary populations during the Early and Late Archaic. We employed a novel statistical technique, norma probability plots, to identify distinct dietary populations. δ13C values from one population in the Lower Pecos and Trans-Pecos regions of Texas reflect the long-term use of C…

Archaeological Testing of the Burleson Homestead at 41HY37 Hays County, Texas
At the request of Southwest Texas State University (now Texas State University-San Marcos), the Center for Archaeological Studies (CAS) conducted an archaeological excavation of the historic Burleson Homestead (41HY37). The excavation was conducted in June and July of 2000 under Texas Antiquities Committee Permit No. 2406. Artifacts collected during the project were processed and curated at CAS. In addition, CAS conducted archival research on str…
The Palaeoindian-Archaic transition in North America
The transition from Palaeoindian to Archaic societies in North America is often viewed as a linear progression over a brief but time-transgressive period. New evidence from the Wilson-Leonard site in Texas suggests social experimentation by Palaeoindians over a 2500-year period eventually resulted in Archaic societies. The process was neither short nor linear, and the evidence shows that different but contemporaneous lifeways existed in a variety…
Test Excavations at the Culebra Creek Site, 41BX126, Bexar County, Texas
Archaeological test excavations were undertaken at 4IBX126 on Culebra Creek to offset the impact from a proposed Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) highway improvement project on Loop 1604 in northwest Bexar County. Archaeological investigations were conducted in three field seasons: the first two seasons were conducted by TxDOT archaeologists and the third was directed by personnel from the Center for Archaeological Research (CAR) of The…
Paleoindian geoarchaeology of the Southern High Plains
Archaeological Survey of Southwest Block and Selected Roads and Firebreaks at Camp Maxey, Lamar County, Texas
In June, July, and September 1998, The Center for Archaeological Research (CAR) of The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) conducted an archaeological survey of approximately 1,000 acres for the Texas Army National Guard (TXARNG) on Camp Maxey, a TXARNG training facility in north-central Lamar County, Texas, under Sections 106 and 110 of the National Historic Preservation Act and the Antiquities Code of Texas. The TXARNG had identified the …
Excavations for the Upper Labor Dam Site, Brackenridge Park, San Antonio, Bexar County, Texas
Upon notification, in 1995, that a portion of a Spanish Colonial acequia had been exposed in Brackenridge Park, the Parks and Recreation Department of the City of San Antonio entered into a contract with the Center for Archaeological Research (CAR) of the University of Texas at San Antonio to investigate and document the structure. In September of 1996, a team from CAR, utilizing a backhoe and operator provided by Parks and Recreation, began a li…
The Chronological Evidence for the Introduction of Domestic Stock into Southern Africa
Paleoenvironmental Change in Central Texas
Analysis of pollen spectra from Boriack and Weakly bogs provides a 16,000 year sequence for central Texas. Fluctuations between grass and arboreal pollen indicate that numerous shifts between forest, woodland, and open plant communities occurred during this span. Open communities were present at the Last Glacial Maximum, and between 12,000-13,000 BP, 9000-10,000 BP, and 8000-2500 BP. A two-phased mid-Holocene dry interval occurred with extremes r…
Setting the Stage
The relationship between culture and environment and the effects of variable climatic conditions on past cultures have long been recognized, but have not always been pursued in archaeological investigations. Early studies treated the environment as a static phenomenon, partly due to lack of precise dating methods and underdevelopment in the science of paleoclimatology. This paper outlines the history of paleoclimatic/paleoenvironmental reconstruc…
The Holocene Phytolith Record from Morgan Playa in the Rolling Plains of Texas
Phytolith analyses of playa-fill sediments from Morgan Playa yield strong evidence for Holocene vegetation and climate change. Morgan Playa is located in the Rolling Plains of Garza County, north-central Texas. Backhoe excavation of the small (about 3.2 hectares) basin exposed 250 cm of Holocene age sediments. A strongly developed Early Holocene paleosol occurs at the base (205-250 cm) of the profile. Dark gray-brown, clayey playa sediments compo…
HemisFair Park, San Antonio, Texas
In August and September 1996, the Center for Archaeological Research conducted archival research on the proposed Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center Expansion in downtown San Antonio, Texas. This area, now in HemisFair Park, was once part of the agricultural fields for the Mission San Antonio de Valero (the Alamo). This report presents a general history of the area, a review of previous archaeological research in HemisFair Park, detailed archival…
Archaeological Survey of Lackland Air Force Base, Bexar County, Texas
The Center for Archaeological Research of The University of Texas at San Antonio conducted a pedestrian cultural resources survey on 3,860 acres of land at Lackland Air Force Base and Medina Base Annex in Bexar County, Texas. Base boundaries contain parts of three tributaries of the Medina River: Leon Creek, Medio Creek, and the upper reaches of Long Hollow. Limited surveys and shovel testing began in the spring of 1994 in areas slated for develo…
Historical Archaeology in Downtown San Antonio, Texas
VIA Metropolitan Transit is proposing to build a Park and Ride Facility near downtown San Antonio immediately east of Interstate Highway 37 in an area bounded by Crockett, Center, and Walnut Streets, and IH 37. Starting in the 1850s this area has been traditionally inhabited primarily by African-Americans. A review of previous archaeological investigations in the downtown area of San Antonio revealed a gap in knowledge concerning African-American…
