Download or read book Stone Age Spear and Arrow Points of the Southwestern United States written by Noel D. Justice and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2002-05-23 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American Southwest is the focus for this volume in Noel Justice's series of reference works that survey, describe, and categorize the projectile point and cutting tools used in prehistory by Native American peoples. Written for archaeologists and amateur collectors alike, the book describes over 50 types of stone arrowhead and spear points according to period, culture, and region. With the knowledge of someone trained to fashion projectile points with techniques used by the Indians, Justice describes how the points were made, used, and re-sharpened. His detailed drawings illustrate the way the Indians shaped their tools, what styles were peculiar to which regions, and how the various types can best be identified. There are hundreds of drawings, organized by type cluster and other identifying characteristics. The book also includes distribution maps and color plates that will further aid the researcher or collector in identifying specific periods, cultures, and projectile types.

Download or read book Catalysts to Complexity written by Jon Erlandson and published by Cotsen Institute of Archaeology Press. This book was released on 2003-07-01 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the Spanish colonized it in AD 1769, the California Coast was inhabited by speakers of no fewer than 16 distinct languages and an untold number of small, autonomous Native communities. These societies all survived by foraging, and ethnohistoric records show a wide range of adaptations emphasizing a host of different marine and terrestrial foods. Many groups exhibited signs of cultural complexity including sedentism, high population density, permanent social inequality, and sophisticated maritime technologies. The ethnographic era was preceded by an archaeological past that extends back to the terminal Pleistocene. Essays in this volume explore the last three and one half millennia of this long history, focusing on the archaeological signatures of emergent cultural complexity. Organized geographically, they provide an intricate mosaic of archaeological, historic, and ethnographic findings that illuminate cultural changes over time. To explain these Late Holocene cultural developments, the authors address issues ranging from culture history, paleoenvironments, settlement, subsistence, exchange, ritual, power, and division of labor, and employ both ecological and post-modern perspectives. Complex cultural expressions, most highly developed in the Santa Barbara Channel and the North Coast, are viewed alternatively as fairly recent and abrupt responses to environmental flux or the end-product of gradual progressions that began earlier in the Holocene.

This book was released on with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "For many years American archaeologists have shown great interest and concern with ceramic typology. This same concern with standardization of descriptive terms for projectile point studies has been the focal point of innumerable efforts particularly by young archaeologists eager to deal with a large temporal hiatus in American pre-history represented by archaic remains. In view of these many attempts, it is surprising that there is as yet no accepted terminology and certainly no standardized attribute list for the comparison of projectile point forms. When dealing with preceramic assemblages, chipped stone material is about all we have, and we must develop adequate techniques for analyzing these assemblages. It is with this in mind that the scheme presented in this paper has been designed."--Leaf [1].
Download or read book A 3 dimensional Approach to Projectile Point Classification written by Kayden Dennis and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Typologies have long been used by archaeologists to answer questions about the past, ranging from issues of site chronology to tool function. However, current methods are hampered by subjective misclassifications as well as a loss of the range of variability among different tool forms due to a process that forces them into singular types. This thesis looks to create a simple and reliable technique of projectile point classification. It is also the author's goal to use a classification system that monitors cultural transmission over time. This objective is addressed with an Archaic projectile point sequence from the Albertson site in Ozark region in Northwest Arkansas. A structured-light 3D scanner was used to create complete 3D models of the artifacts that includes several projectile point types. This was done to improve the accuracy and replicability of measurements. Several different quantitative attributes were examined using cluster analysis. The results indicate that current projectile point types applied to the site are suitable for answering questions of site chronology. However, they are inadequate for questions of social interaction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Aer much reading, studying, contemplating and analyzing the information which is available about dart and arrow point identification, and studying the descriptions of many different types, I put together a short list of questions which enables me to compile a description of a projectile point. From this description, I can focus the answers to narrow down the type classification possibilities for any particular stone projectile point from this wonderful region. "Stone Projectile Points Of The Pacific Northwest" uses this series of questions and answers to illustrate clearly the identification process for several dozen projectile points in my collection. You can use the same process to identify most of the points you will find in the Pacific Northwest. This is how this book is An Arrowhead Collector's Guide To Type Identification. 240 pages, 91 types of artifacts"--
