Current research at western Oklahoma’s Certain site (34BK46) has substantially increased our knowledge ofLate Archaic bison hunting in the Southern Plains. Comparison with several other kill sites in the Texas Panhandle shows a broad, regional pattern. Small to moderate numbers of bison were trapped in arroyos, killed, and butchered. Butchering patterns and carcass utilization vary in detail, but generally show less than full use of whatwas available. Seasonality data are tentative, but seem to show some variability as to timing of the kills, witha possible preference for late fall/early winter
