Comprehensive analysis of the previously unreported bison remains from the Clary Ranch site in western Nebraska, combined with information from recent field investigations, provides a robust source of new insight on Late Paleoindian (Allen/Frederick Complex) diet and subsistence practices on the central Great Plains. The assemblage provides a rare opportunity to examine the settlement/subsistence system from the perspective of a secondary processing area, where complete bison limbs and articulated sublimb segments, initially removed from carcasses at a nearby mass kill site, were transported to Clary Ranch for defleshing and marrow extraction. These kill/butchery activities suggest an increased reliance on subsistence strategies intended to alleviate impending winter food shortages
