The Roscoe Perry House Site: A Long-Term Prehistoric Occupation in the Hudson Valley

Introduction

This report analyzes the stored collection of artifacts excavated from the backyard of a historic house overlooking the and the . This is a multicomponent site that spans much of the Holocene. This site contains fifteen archaeological phases ranging from the Early Archaic to the Contact Period. There is a large quantity of prehistoric material, most of which was recovered within a document context. The site has remarkable stratification and preserved the prehistoric contexts well. This material has been in storage at SUNY New

Paltz and has not been analyzed for nearly thirty years. The collection adds to the significance of the Hendrickson Site which was excavated by Dr. Leonard Eisenberg on the adjacent property.

This was the first major prehistoric site recovered within the city boundaries of Kingston, NY.

The surrounding landscape has a rich diversity of available lithic material. Utilizing the lithic tools and the associated debitage this paper will illustrate how people interacted with the surrounding land and distant peoples. These variables will provide insight on population size, activity patterns and changing environmental conditions. Though this site was excavated in conjunction with Dr. Leonard Eisenberg’s methodology, this paper will utilize current analytical techniques for identifying and classifying debitage which will bolster the understanding of how the site was used.

Background

The Roscoe Perry House Archaeological Site was excavated by the New York State

Archaeological Association (NYSAA) Mid-Hudson Chapter, an avocational archaeological organization in the summer of 1985. At the time of the excavation this was the first prehistoric woodland village to be excavated in the City of Kingston. This site was excavated in

5 conjunction with the Hendrickson Site on the adjacent property, which at the time was being excavated by SUNY New Paltz under direction of Dr. Leonard Eisenberg. Both properties are located on the first terrace overlooking the confluence of the Rondout Creek and Hudson River and contained extensive prehistoric material.

The New York State Archaeological Association is comprised of sixteen chapters located throughout the State of New York. They are a professional and public advocacy group who provide laymen with responsible archaeological information, as well as, provide standards for archaeologists across the state. They promote scientific cataloging and the preservation of private archaeological collections, as well as encourage reporting sites to the New York State Museum and the Office of Parks, Recreation, and Historic Preservation. NYSAA makes it possible for people interested in the archaeological heritage of New York State to be responsibly involved.

During the summer of 1985, Art Carver, Tom Turck, Frank Parslow, Jack Vargo, Donna

Vargo, Richard Stewart, David Wanzer, and Alvin Wanzer excavated four 2 meter square units in the yard of the Perry family. They utilized Dr. Leonard Eisenberg’s archaeological grid that was established the previous year on the adjacent Hendrickson property. The Hendrickson site was the location of the 1984, 1985, and 1986 SUNY New Paltz Field Schools and contained twenty-three 2x2 meter square units (Eisenberg 1989) for a total of ninety-two meters of horizontal excavation area. The Perry Site had a total of four units of the same dimensions, with a total of sixteen meters of horizontal exposure. However, because they are on connected adjacent properties, they are actually part of the same prehistoric site. Both the Hendrickson and the Perry sites were first identified by Mr. Thomas Turck and then Frank Parslow of the

NYSAA. The property owner had recovered Native American artifacts while gardening, and had

6 then contacted Mr. Turck. Frank Parslow then brought the Hendrickson site to Dr. Eisenberg’s attention and coordinated the excavation with him.

Though excavated by the Mid-Hudson Chapter of NYSAA, the collection was gifted to the SUNY New Paltz Anthropology Department in order to catalogue and preserve it. Dr.

Eisenberg, and then later Dr. Joseph Diamond, presided over the collection that was kept in an environmentally controlled storage unit on the premises of the university. For thirty-five years it was in storage and no in-depth analysis was completed. Two students completed cursory examinations of the collection as undergraduate projects. Cara Gulley partially tabulated and sorted the materials. Jamie Meinsen (2011) completed a brief survey of some of the lithics and prehistoric pottery and presented a paper on April 6th, 2011 at the annual NYSAA conference that was held in Johnstown, NY.

Site Setting

The Roscoe Perry house is located at the end of Ponckhockie Street nestled on the first terrace, or bluff, overlooking the intersection of the Rondout Creek and the Hudson River. “The

Strand” is a street that runs along the base of the hill at the southern portion of the terrace. The bluff is approximately 15m above the Hudson/ Rondout AMSL and is a semicircular piece of land. The eastern border faces the Hudson River and the southern portion faces the Rondout

Creek. To the west and north of the terrace is the City of Kingston which is 80 miles (130 km), north of . East across the Hudson River sits Rhinebeck and across the Rondout to the south is Port Ewen. The site is located at 41.923435, -73.972559 or 41°55'24.4"N

73°58'21.2"W. The two properties contain the only open yards in the neighborhood making it an optimal location for preserved prehistoric archaeological contexts. During the 19th century, the excavation of the Perry and Hendrickson house basements and foundations provided an extra

7 level of disturbed soil which sealed in both sites below the original A-Horizon soil. The lawns also contained gardens that disturbed the first several centimeters in some small areas. The land below the terrace now contains the industrial remains of the previous two centuries, however it would have been a coarse sandy beach surrounded by wetland during Dutch settlement and during pre-contact times (Diamond 1999; Fried 1975).

History

The location of the Perry Site in Kingston, New York, has been occupied by people of

European descent for over 300 years (Grumet 1995). Historic contexts and artifacts overlay, as well as intrude into the lower Native American contexts of each unit. Pre-contact materials have been excavated in four units producing lithic material and debitage. The associated pre-contact lithic and ceramic materials found in the four excavated units will be the focus of this study.

Indigenous peoples have used the area for millennia prior to contact and significantly less information is known about Native American sites of the Hudson Valley; in contrast to the historic occupations. No written records exist from native populations of the Northeast prior to

European contact and those that were written by Europeans are mostly associated with Christian

9 missionary work (Wyss 2003). Beachamp notes, “The were at New York island and a little above, the Pachami at Fishkill, the Waoraneaks at Esopus, the Wappingers in the highlands (1901:13)”. Additionally, Beachamp suggests that the Esopus Indians around Kingston were sometimes called Warynawaucks, as there was an inscribed stone at Esopus Landing and a village site near Kingston Point. He also states that there was a village and cemetery at

Ponckhockie (Beachamp 1901:156). One Native American burial was recovered on the

Hendrickson site which can collaborate this claim (Eisenberg 1989).

This extreme bias of historical knowledge is why archaeology plays a vital role in illustrating the pre-contact use of land through the Americas. Through examining the material culture of the people who lived at the intersection of the Rondout Creek and the Hudson River, inferences can be made about past environmental conditions, dietary reconstruction, social class, and landscape interactions.

The upper levels of each unit contained copious amounts of historic material. Prior to

1652, the land in Kingston was occupied by the indigenous population making use of the Hudson

River and its tributaries. Thomas Chambers purchased the land in the Esopus region where a small settlement was established in what is now northeast Kingston. In 1661 the New

Netherlands director titled the city Wildwyck and in 1664, when the English took control of New

Netherlands, it was renamed Kingston (Eisenberg 1989; Diamond 2003).

The Rondout was previously referred to as the Esopus Kill until the redoubt was built along the mouth of the creek along the strand, or beach, in the 1660s. It was renamed the

Rondout (Kammen 1975). The Strand is still there and located at the base of the terrace below where the site is located. This area is also known as Ponckhockie. The site’s surrounding area stayed fairly stable with little cultural modification until the completion of the Delaware and

10

Hudson Canal system in 1828. Due to this, the intersection of the Rondout and the Hudson became a major shipping hub of goods, such as limestone, mortar, concrete, bluestone, brick, and primarily coal form the Rondout to New York City. The D&H canal terminated at the mouth of the Rondout, at Eddyville, and contained a network of canals heading west ending in Honesdale,

Pennsylvania, the source of the coal that was brought to the Hudson Valley. The terrace where the site is located was not affected directly by the construction of warehouses and marinas, however, thousands of workers constructed residences in Ponckhockie, including the Perry and

Hendrickson houses. Towards the end of the 19th-century the railroad ebbed away at the financial importance of canals and therefore the Rondout and Hudson confluence became abandoned by industry by 1898 (Eisenberg 1989; Fried 1975; Diamond 2013).

Environment Geology

The Perry Site is located in the Hudson Lowlands which runs the entire length of the eastern portion of New York. This region is surrounded on almost all sides by highlands and mountainous terrain. The Hudson Lowlands follows the course of the Hudson River. Most of the lowlands are glacial deposits except for the three ridges in the south; the Shawangunks,

Schunemunk, and . To the west of the Hudson River are the Wallkill and

Rondout River Valleys. To the east is the Fishkill and Wappinger’s Creek valleys (Fisher,

Isachsen, and Rickard 1970).

The Hudson River begins in the southeastern portion of the and drains into the Atlantic Ocean. The Rondout Creek begins at the northwestern portion of the

Shawangunk mountain, a folded shale and sandstone ridge overlain by a layer of conglomerate bedrock formations, which flows along its base between the . The Wallkill

River begins in eastern New Jersey on the south western portion of the Shawangunk Mountain and travels over 70 miles until it drains 6 miles southwest, 10 km, into the Rondout in the old mining town Rosendale, New York (Kidd, Plesch and Vollmer 1993). The first terrace on the

Perry Site was formed 12,000 years ago by the Hudson and Rondout down cutting the land as the retreat of glacial Lake Albany (Tornes 1979). As the water retreated it left behind lacustrine silts and sands that overlaid the natural limestone bedrock that lay beneath (Davis 1969).

Chert

New York State has a rich diversity of available lithic sources which native peoples exploited. The Roscoe Perry House Site is situated in the midst of several varieties of cherts that derive from different host rocks. The Esopus and Onondaga cherts are located on the west side of the river and derive from limestone bedrock. The Mount Merino and Indian River can be found on the west and east sides of the Hudson River and are derived from shale bedrock. This diversity of readily available high quality lithics was an integral aspect of the prehistoric way of life on the Roscoe Perry House Site ( Holland 2004; Luedtke 1992; Gramley 1980).

The Mount Merino and Indian River Chert formations are silicified from shale and slate bedrock formed from mudstone. These cherts are found along the Hudson River from north of

14

Albany, at the Pleasantdale quarry site, through Catskill, Hudson, and Rhinebeck, with numerous small quarries on the western side of the river in Kingston and the Town of Esopus (Brumbach

1987; Brumbach and Weinstein 1999). Mount Merino chert ranges from a grey to a black and exhibits grey and black splotches, as well as green banding. At times it can also be deep waxy green to apple green. This was once known as Normanskill chert which was found in shale beds along the Normanskill Creek (Holland and Ashton 1999; Funk 2004) The chemical differences between cherts found in the shale beds along the Normanskill and within Mount Merino are negligible (Brumbach 1987). From the same shale beds the maroon Indian River chert is also prevalent. This chert is not glossy and has a more brittle matrix and resembles the shale host more closely than the Mount Merino chert. Mount Merino shale beds are found within several hundred feet of the site on a higher terrace. Indian River Chert can be found across the river in the opposing shale beds in Duchess County (Brumbach 1987; Fisher et al. 1970).

Esopus Chert and Onondaga Chert formations are among the fifteen or more silica/

Devonian derived lithic materials that were available to prehistoric peoples in the State of New

York.

“These include (low to high) the Lower Devonian , New Scotland, Becraft, Alsen, Port Ewen, Port Jervis, coeval Oriskany and Glenerie, Esopus, and coeval Schoharie and Bois Blanc formations; and the Middle Devonian Onondaga, Union Springs, Skaneateles (Stafford Mbr.) and Moscow (Menteth Mbr.) formations. Abundance in the units varies from rare to extremely common, even locally dominant. Most of the chert-bearing units occur in eastern New York (Otsego to Orange cos.). Across central to western New York, only the Onondaga Fm. features chert of any significance.” [Ver Straeten 2015]

All of these cherts are precipitated from Devonian limestone in the form of chert nodules. Almost all of these cherts range from grey to dark grey depending on location and formation. This makes distinguishing these cherts by color difficult. Depending on impurities, internal stress fractures, and prevalence, these cherts were utilized by most prehistoric peoples in the Hudson Valley. The Onondaga cherts (eastern and western), are the

15 most common through the state and are found within four Formations; Edgecliff, Nedrow,

Moorehouse, and Seneca limestones (Oliver 1956, Pollock 1983), although the Moorhouse

Formation is the most applicable for this study. The further west the formation is the lighter in color the chert becomes. Onondaga chert is also characterized by small fossils that produce pitting and pockets of impurities which can make the material difficult to work (Oliver

1956).

Esopus chert is free of impurities, unlike the Onondaga cherts, and ranges from a light grey grainy limestone to a “buttery” glossy black/grey chert. One nodule could contain high quality chert on one end and limestone on the other forming a gradient of different quality cherts. These formations are found in the limestone above the site and across the Rondout in

Port Ewen (Ver Straeten 2015). Lastly, the Epler or Harmonyvale chert formation is a non- localized chert formation found in the southwestern portion of Orange County (and New

Jersey) and is best known from a limestone outcrop along the . This is a glassy light blue chert often mistaken as chalcedony due to its transparency when flaked very thin

(La Porta 1996).

Jasper is also present in very small quantities in the Perry site collection. Jasper is chemically similar to chert but forms in a different way (Pollock Hamilton, Boisvert 1996).

Jasper is a precipitate that originates from silica rich sediments and volcanic ash. Additional minerals found in the sediment can alter the appearance and color. Iron inclusions form red jasper. Yellow, brown and red jasper are present on the Perry House Site. Jasper is not native to New York and its presences on the site indicates that it was imported from Pennsylvania

(Carr and McLearen 2005; Hatch and Miller 1985; Hatch 1993; Luedtke 1987). Lehigh

County Pennsylvania contains several jasper mines and prehistoric quarry sites (Mercer

16

1984). This is a likely origin for the jasper found at the Perry site rather than New Hampshire or other parts of New England (Gramley and Cox 1976; Burke 1997; Burke n.d.).

Clay

Clay comes from the local river bed and is the product of the weathering and erosion of silicate containing rocks with a large percentage of alumina including mica. These are recent sedimentary deposits of older worn rocks. There are two types of clay deposits: primary clays and secondary clays.

Primary clays are found at the location where the host rock and weathering occurred.

These clay deposits do not have a large number of organic materials mixed in with them and they are less malleable. These are also less common clay deposits to find as many types of clay are carried by wind and water after they decomposed from the host rock. These weather from granite or basalt and often contain large pieces of the host rock that have yet to decompose. These clays have minerals used as temper such as pyrite, mica, and quartz.

Secondary clays are removed from their parent source and transported a distance by water. These are the more common clays and are finer in texture than primary clays due to sorting, deposition, and re-deposition. Their distribution and transport defines the clay such as glacial clays, aeolian clays, and marine clays.

One of the most probable sources of clay for the inhabitants of the Perry Site are the deep deposits of glacial clay along the western side of the river approximately 1000 feet northeast of the site. This was the location of the Hutton Brickyard, which mined clay from Kingston Point from c. 1850 until the 1940’s (Hutton 2003).

17

Regional Climate

In the Northeast, temperate deciduous forests with oak had taken hold by 6000 B.C.

(Approx. 8000 B.P.) and by 3000 B.C. (Approx. 5000 B.P.) beech, hickory, and chestnut had been integrated into the Northeast forest (Davis 1969). For the human population of the Hudson

Valley, this region had become a stabilized and resource rich environment where the population could take root and become acclimated to the environment. The site in question is part of this stabilization. Ritchie and Funk note:

“The archeological record is not deceptive in indicating the earliest appearance of man on a hunting-

fishing-collecting level on the southern fringes of the Northeast at a time closely approximating the first

appearance of the temperate deciduous forest, and of well-developed and diversified Archaic cultures over

much of the area by about 3000 B.C., when these forests were enriched by mast foods. [Ritchie and Funk

1973]”

The site is within the continental climatic region. The region has cold winters and warm summers with 26 F and 69 F on average respectively and has 40-60 inches of rain each year. The

Hudson River acts as a heat sink and prevents the temperatures from reaching too extreme in either season. However, the humidity in the area can be very high during the summer season.

The site is located in an eastern broadleaf forest in the Oceanic Province. The Oceanic Province is characterized by a temperate deciduous forest comprised of tall broadleaf trees that grows a dense, continuous canopy in the late spring, summer, and early fall. In the late fall they shed their leaves entirely. Lower layers of small trees and shrubs develop poorly, but are comprised of deciduous permanent shrubs including blueberries and huckleberries, evergreen shrubs, burdock tubers, blackcaps and raspberry bushes (Bailey 1995; Eisenberg 1989; Küchler 1964; Hather

1993).

18

During the spring, a ground cover of grasses, herbs, and flowers quickly develop, but is greatly reduced after trees reach full foliage and obscure the ground of sunlight. Forest vegetation in this region is divided into three major associations: mixed mesophytic,

Appalachian oak, and pine-oak. The Perry Site is located in the mixed mesophytic vegetation group and contains: American beech, poplar, several basswoods, several maples, buckeye, white oak, red oak, several evergreen, black walnut, locus, eastern hemlock and 20 plus other species of trees. Europeans have since introduced a variety of flora for ornamental and agricultural purposes that have changed the ground cover beneath the broadleaf canopy, including Asian rose bushes, kudzu vines and grapevines. Wetlands are dominated by algae, aquatic plants, cattails, mosses and ferns. The invasive purple loosestrife has recently choked out the predominant cattail

(Bailey 1995; Küchler 1964; Hather 1988, 1991).

The temperate climate that provides the seasonal vegetation allows for a variety of fauna in the region around the Perry Site. The mammals in the area include, but are not limited to, white-tailed deer, black bear, skunk, fox, grey and red squirrel, chipmunk, raccoon, coyote, bat, ground hog, river otter, beaver, porcupine, cottontail rabbit, bobcats, the occasional mountain lion, and opossum. Additionally, people had domesticated dogs which aided in hunting, companionship and occasionally were consumed during a ceremony (Diamond and Amorosi

2000). Both migratory and non-migratory birds are a significant portion of the fauna present in the area. Ducks, geese, turkeys, hawks, bald eagles, crows and a variety of songbirds can be found in and around the site location. Reptiles are also present and include snapping turtle, box turtle, painted turtle, garter snake, black snake, milk snake, and timber rattler, to name a few examples (Bethlehem 2009). Amphibians like salamanders, newts, frogs and toads are also very

19 common in this region, exclusively in the warmer months of the year (Bailey 1995; de

Laubenfels 1975).

The Hudson River and all of its tributaries are home to over 200 different fish species.

Anadromous fish migrate during the spring from the Atlantic Ocean up into the Hudson River to spawn. A huge biomass of Atlantic sturgeon, shortnose sturgeon, striped bass, alewives

(herring), shad, and smelts can be found during the spring run from April to early June. During the summer and winter, catfish, bullheads, eel, sunfish, white and yellow perch, largemouth and smallmouth bass, and rock bass are available in the Hudson and its tributaries. Bivalves such as freshwater mussels are currently available in the waters of the Hudson, and this was also the case prior to European Contact (Bethlehem 2009; Amorosi et al 1996; de Laubenfels 1975; Quinn

1998).

Excavation Methods

A total of four two meter square units were excavated during the field season in the summer of 1985 at the Perry House Site. As previously stated, the site was laid out in a grid which was an extension of Leonard Eisenberg's grid on the adjacent Hendrickson House Site, known as 85.1. A the Perry Site, each unit was laid out from a fixed datum point and the first number indicates the number of meters north or south, up and down, and east or west, right and left. The datum was located at the southwest corner of each of the four units (Eisenberg 1989).

Excavation was completed by stratum and all soil was screened through ¼ inch hardware cloth, which overlaid another screen with 1/8 inch mesh, a necessary archaeological standard (Payne

1972). All archaeological contexts were removed mostly by trowel, dustpan, and the occasional

20 shoveling. The soils in each archaeological context or stratum were removed no more than 2 centimeters at a time across the entire unit.

During the excavation, soils were moved one bucket at a time to the screens. The excavation of each unit was conducted at a slow enough pace to insure that the majority of artifacts were recovered in situ rather than in the screen. Soils were excavated in sections in order to assign accurate depths and provenience to each artifact found in the screen. The artifacts were bagged in the field according to whether they were historic or prehistoric. With each bag type, artifacts were further segregated into bone, pottery, nail, brick, lithics, prehistoric pottery, and debitage bags. The historic material, which is not included in this analysis, was subjected to sampling if there were high quantities of one type. For example one individual brick would suffice if multiple bricks were encountered (Higgs 1975). However, all prehistoric materials were sampled and bagged. All artifacts were washed at the end of the day and eventually handed over to

Leonard Eisenberg to curate according to his numeric cataloging system.

There were a total of 19 bags. Artifacts that were found in each contextual layer were bagged separately and the opening depths and the closing depths of the strata were recorded on each bag. To avoid contextual duplication or analytical confusion all bags for all units were numbered in ascending order contiguously. Each “bag” (i.e. 1a, 1b, 1c) represented one stratigraphic layer if the material exceeded the capacity of a single bag.

Bags 1-4 were, in this analysis, referred to as unit one (Eisenberg Grid location 18/R14).

Bags 5-8 are from unit two (Eisenberg Grid location 8/R14). Bags 9-14 comprise all of unit three

(Eisenberg Grid location 8/R10). Bags 15-19 contained the entirety of unit four (Eisenberg Grid location 12/R10).

Stratigraphy

The stratigraphy in each of the units was formed through both human and natural taphonomic processes. The geological history of the first terrace, as indicated before, can account for the deep sandy silt layers. Humans from both prehistoric and historic time periods also modified the site by removing foliage, digging hearths, burials, refuse pits, and foundation building trenches and basements. Some of the units contain disturbed contexts or historic intrusions into buried prehistoric contexts. Overall, there were five soil types that were culturally modified by historic people and represented preserved contexts containing prehistoric materials.

BSS (Brown Sandy Sod)

The Brown Sandy Sod stratum is the first layer in all four units. This stratigraphic layer is a mixture of disturbed soils and natural soils that contain both prehistoric and historic material mixed through the layer. Primarily Woodland Period artifacts were mixed with historic pipe stems, coal, glass, and broken flower pots and would indicate that the soils are not entirely disturbed. The nearby historic Perry House construction, built in the mid 19th century is likely the culprit of the mixed soils. The excavators referred to this layer as “fill”, however the soils are from the construction of the Perry house and are not from an external or off-site location. This stratum contained twenty-eight percent of the lithic artifacts, twenty-two percent of the prehistoric pottery, and twenty-three percent of the debitage. The average depth of this stratum is

18.28cm.

24

DBS (Dark Brown Sand)

The Dark Brown Sand is found within historic pits that cut through the other soils. This soil contains some prehistoric material out of context that has been mixed with a variety of historic material including: pottery, coal, glass, and historic faunal remains.

MBS (Medium Brown Sand)

Medium Brown Sand contains predominantly prehistoric materials with some historical artifacts at or around the interface of Brown Sandy Sod (BSS) and Medium Brown Sand (MBS).

The highest concentration of prehistoric material at the Perry Site is found in this stratigraphic layer. This stratum contains forty-two percent of the lithic artifacts, forty-five percent of the debitage, and sixty percent of the prehistoric pottery. The average depth of the Medium Brown

Sand is 47cm.

MYBS (Medium Yellow Brown Sand)

Medium Yellow Brown Sand is the last stratigraphic containing cultural material. Aside from historic refuse pit intrusions, this layer contains only prehistoric materials and the occasional post hole. This stratum contains thirty percent of the lithic artifacts, nineteen percent of the prehistoric pottery, and thirty-one percent of the total debitage. The average depth of this stratum is 63cm.

YS (Yellow Sand)

The sterile Yellow Sand is the underlying soil stratum where artifacts are not found. In the historic contexts a Yellow Soil layer is seen as an intrusion in the Medium Brown Sand

(MBS) layer and contains glass, coal, and pottery.

Excavation Results

The excavation of the Perry Site yielded a total of 472 lithic tools, 12,505 pieces of debitage, and 536 potsherds. A large quantity of historic artifacts were also recovered, however as previously stated, they will not be reviewed in this study. The two strata that yielded the largest percentages of Native American artifacts were the Medium Brown Sand (MBS) and the

Medium Yellow Brown Sand (MYBS). The Brown Sandy Sod (BSS) contained 28% of the lithic artifacts; the Medium Brown Sand (MBS) contained 42% of the lithic artifacts, and the

Medium Yellow Brown Sand (MYBS) 30% of the lithic artifacts.

The majority of the lithic artifacts that were recovered were made from locally acquired chert sources. These sources were green/splotchy grey Mount Merino chert, Maroon Indian

River chert, buttery grey/black Esopus chert, and pitted black Onondaga chert. About 10 percent of the artifacts were composed of “exotic material”, which in this paper is designated as material from outside of the immediate vicinity of the Perry Site. The majority of these artifacts were made from Epler or Harmonyvale chert which originated southwest of the Perry Site up the

Wallkill River at the border of New York, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey. The remaining exotic lithics were made from brown and yellow jaspers, where some were thermally altered. The jasper originates in eastern Pennsylvania. The remaining lithics were constructed of silicified sandstone/limestone, yellow/dark/white quartzite, and argillite.

Projectile Points and Chert Tools

The temporal distribution of the diagnostic artifacts from the four units were evident in the associated points collected in the different strata levels. The artifacts ranged from the Early

Archaic to the Woodland period. The earliest point, of Charleston corner-notched type is indicative of the kind of regional influence that may have been affecting the area. The Charleston corner-notched point has a large area of distribution which stretches from the Ohio Valley to the

Atlantic coast and lower New York (Ritchie 1971).

29

Archaic: The oldest artifact by far in this collection is the Charleston Cornered-Notched point.

This is an Early Archaic projectile point that is dated between 9,500-8500, years before present.

This was found in the last cultural stratum, MYBS, at 67 centimeters below the datum in Unit 2.

It was fabricated from the local Mount Merino chert.

These point traditions hint to few specific utilitarian needs; however, they are most likely dart points used at the end of an atlatl, a dart thrower. Wetlands were associated with the archaic periods due to draining water bodies along the Hudson Valley, along with the stabilized river systems and tributaries (Funk and Steadman 1994).

30

There are four Otter Creek points in the collection. These are the second oldest points in the Archaic sequence and are found almost exclusively in the northeastern portion of the United

States. They date from c. 5950 to 4950 years before present (Richie 1973). Three were recovered in the lower portion of the MBS and one was found in the MYBS strata which contain the older prehistoric contexts. The four points were fabricated from Esopus chert, Mount Merino chert, and Eastern and Western Onondaga chert. All of these are locally sourced materials.

Like most archaeological sites in the Hudson Valley, particularly those near the river, the

Vosburg Phase is present. The collection contains two Vosburg points found in MYBS, one made from Esopus chert and the other from Mount Merino chert. Vosburg points generally range from c. 4950 to 4450 years before present. Also associated with the Vosburg Phase in the

Hudson Valley (Funk 1976, 1988) are the Brewerton series of points and the Beekman Triangle point. There are five total points from the Brewerton complex; three Brewerton Eared, one

Brewerton Cornered-Notched, and one Brewerton Side-Notched. Four were found in the MBS stratum and one was found in the MYBS. Two Brewerton Eared-Notched/Triangle points are made from Mount Merino chert, and one is made from Esopus chert. The Brewerton Cornered-

Notched Point is made from Western Onondaga chert and the Brewerton Side -Notched is fabricated from Eastern Onondaga chert.

The collection contains four Lamoka/Sylvan Lake points, which can range from c.4450 to

3850 years before present (Ritchie 1971). Of these, one was found in the MBS stratum and three were found in the MYBS stratum. Two were made from Eastern Onondaga chert and two from

Mount Merino chert.

31

There are also two Bare Island points, which have a similar date range to the

Lamoka/Sylvan Lake Points. One each was found in MBS and MYBS. They were fabricated from Eastern Onondaga chert.

One Normanskill point made from Eastern Onondaga chert was recovered. Given its location it is probably out of context in the BSS, and this is likely a result of the soil displacement from the foundation construction of the Perry House. This point tradition ranges from c.3850 to 3650 years before present (Ritchie 1971, 1980).

Four Snook Kill points were recovered, two each in the MBS and MYBS. Snook Kill points ranges in date from c. 3450 to 3350 years before present (Ritchie 1971). They are constructed, one each, from Esopus chert, Mount Merino chert, Indian River chert, and Western

Onondaga chert. One each was found in MBS and MYBS.

The last two projectile points found from the Archaic (Transitional) were Orient Fishtail points, 3200-2600 before present (Hart and Brumbach 2005). They were recovered from the

MBS and MYBS stratum. One was made from Indian River chert and the other from Western

Onondaga chert.

Woodland: The first of the temporally diagnostic artifacts from the Woodland period that was recovered was a Meadowood blade, that was slightly notched at the base. These generally range from 3300 to 2700 years before present. The blade was found in the MYBS stratum and was crafted from Esopus chert.

One Rossville point, 2600 to 1700 years before present, was recovered in the BSS and was made from Esopus chert. There was one Fox Creek, 2000 to 1100 years before present, was recovered from MBS and was constructed from Western Onondaga chert (Ritchie 1971).

33

The most numerically preponderant point from the Late Woodland was represented by seventeen Levanna points, 1300 to 600 years before present. These are made with locally acquired cherts, while one is made from Epler/Harmonyvale chert. Ten were found in the BSS and six were found in the MBS stratum. One was found in a DS intrusion.

Untyped Bifaces: Bifaces are classified here as any lithic material that has been flaked on two sides producing a margin. This excludes cores produced from lithic reductions, that do not have use wear. Technically, all chert flake tools that have two worked sides are considered bifaces.

Additionally, assigning function to these bifaces can ignore the use history of each biface and can be tricky without function-specific evidence such as where handles or spear shafts have been attached (Winters 1969; Diamond 2004a). However, due to ethnographic proxies and the archaeological analysis of local lithic artifacts, categorizing these bifaces is possible.

In this collection a great number of fragmentary sections of bifacially worked tools, knives and projectile points were recovered and could not be identified. These are also fragments of Stage 1 bifaces with sinuous margins and simple surface topography which is unlike the more shallow soft percussion flaking and pressure flaking of knives, drills, and projectile points. There are a total of fifty-two untyped bifaces. Thirteen (25%) were found in the BSS, twenty-five

(48%) were found in the MBS and fourteen (27%) were located in the MYBS. Of the fifty-two, ten were constructed from Esopus chert, twenty-three from Mount Merino chert, seven from

Indian River chert, two from Western Onondaga chert, five from Eastern Onondaga Chert, one from Epler or Harmonyvale chert, one from Brown Jasper, one from each yellow and white quartzite, and one was made from Oriskany chert.

34

Knives: Knives, or blades, are bifacially worked chert or silicified lithic material. Knives differ from projectile points in function as a multi-tool/cutting implement, though projectile points could also be used as cutting edges. Knives are generally longer and broader than projectile points and can be angled with use wear on one or both edges. They have a wavy saw-like margin constructed through a series of alternate flakes from adjacent faces (Winters 1969). Here knives are considered late stage bifaces and differ from early stage bifaces because they exhibit straight, but wavy margins, and complex surface topography. There were eight knives found in the BSS, ten were found in the MBS, and eight were found in the MYBS, totaling in twenty-six knives.

Five were fabricated from Esopus chert, ten from Mount Merino chert, seven from Indian River chert, one from each Western and Eastern Onondaga chert, one from Argillite, and one made from Grey Quartzite.

Projectile Points Untyped: Similar to the untyped bifaces, untyped projectile points are extremely fragmentary, most of which have narrow point tips, midsections, or base fragments.

These, like knives, are late stage bifaces. Unlike knives, projectile points have a non-wavy straight margin which has been subjected to pressure flaking. Forty-one total untyped projectile point fragments were recovered. Twelve (29%) were found in the BSS, twenty three (56%) were found in the MBS, and the MYBS contained six (15%) untyped projectile point fragments.

Fifteen were made from Esopus chert, nine were from Mount Merino chert, five from Western

Onondaga chert, eight from Eastern Onondaga chert, two from Epler or Harmonyvale chert, two from Brown Jasper and one was made from White Quartzite.

Utilized Flakes: Flint knapping is the process of removing portions of a lithic core in order to construct lithic tools. These tools could be, or be made from, the individual flakes or they could be the end result of use-wear on a flake. A flake freshly removed from a core could, depending on the material, possess a surgically thin edge that is one molecule thick. These flakes could be used for cutting, butchering and the processing of plant material. This edge-modified flake, or a pattern of use-wear on flake, is how one identifies flake or expedient tools. Two hundred forty utilized flakes were identified. There were sixty-seven (28%) utilized flakes found in the BSS, ninety-nine (41%) in the MBS and seventy-four (31%) found in the MYBS. Forty-six were constructed of Esopus chert, ninety-two of Mount Merino chert, fifty-two of Indian River chert,

36 fourteen of Western Onondaga chert, twenty-four of Eastern Onondaga chert, five of Epler or

Harmonyvale chert, one of brown and two red Jasper, one of thermally altered Jasper, one of

Grey quartzite and two of Argillite.

Drills: Drills are constructed from various chert types and are trapezoidally shaped with a tapered end. Drills can be a good example of a tool that has been reworked for another use. Some drills can be made from broken bifaces like knives or projectile points (Winters 1969). These drills can exhibit tangs or notches from the previous tool prior to being reworked. Drills are used for perforating wood, bone, antler, shell, hides, ceramics, and even soft stone. There were eight drills recovered at the Perry Site. Two were recovered in the BSS stratum, three in the MBS and three in the MYBS. Five were made from Esopus chert; one was from Mount Merino chert and one from Western Onondaga chert.

Scraper: A scraper is a functional term that describes a tool that is used for processing animal and plant material by repeatedly pushing and pulling a sharp implement across a surface. These are usually fabricated from chert flakes, unifaces, or re-worked bifaces. Scrapers can be hand held or hafted. A utilized flake is categorically different from a scraper due to the lack of bifacial or unifacial working along with use wear (Winters 1969). There were ten scrapers found in each of the BSS, MBS and MYBS strata. Six were made from Esopus chert, ten from Mount Merino chert, three from Western Onondaga chert, eight from Eastern Onondaga chert, one from Brown

Jasper, one was thermally altered Jasper, and one was composed of Argillite.

37

Graver: These are simple unifacial stone tools that are used for perforating or engraving. These are simple flaked tools often on an early flake (Winters 1969). They are unifacially modified to have spokes or spurs which are the working edges. One was recovered in the MBS and two were recovered in the MYBS. One graver was made from Esopus chert and two from silicified sandstone.

Grooved and Ground Stone Tools

Ground stone tools are created in similar ways to flaked stone tools through flaking and chipping stones to acquire an approximate form. They are then ground against a surface harder than the stone being worked until formed into the desired shape. These are tools made from large chunks

38 of basalt, sandstone, or quartzite. Ground stone tools also get their name from the activity they are used for. Activities like grinding, sanding, abrading, mashing, or crushing results in a polished stone product (Winters 1969; Moerman1998). Ground stone artifacts are very common through archaeological sites due to their common place in the household for processing food, fibers for cordage, and plant material.

Net Sinker: Usually made from naturally smoothed river stones, net sinkers are additionally ground in the two notches to prevent cordage from being weakened or cut by the rough edges.

These are used to weigh down fishing or throwing nets ( Diamond 2004b) . One net sinker was found in the BSS stratum.

Nutting Stone: These are hammer stones, or manos (handstones), that are used to bash, process, or separate plant materials and shells from around a nut (like a black walnut or a hickory nut).

These are used in conjunction with anvils, stationary stones that are used as a platform to place items to be processed. Repeatedly smashing a hammer stone on the hard black walnut pericarp

(fibrous exterior) and endocarp (hard shell) to extract the walnut cotyledon (fruit portion) will result in a distinctive concave circular groove on the stones (Winters 1969; Moerman 1998). One nutting stone was found in YS at the interface beneath the MYBS stratum.

Abrader: Abraders are grinding and smoothing stones that are used to sharpen and shape other tools. Both coarse and fine sand stones are used as the base material for the tool (Winters 1969).

One abrading stone was recovered in the MYBS stratum and was made from a fine-grained sandstone.

39

Pestle: Pestles are the hand held moving part of a mill. Absent from this collection was a mortar or stationary grinding platform. Pestles are both ground in order to shape the tool and ground by milling processing (Winters 1969; Moerman1998). One of these manos, or grindstone, was found in MBS stratum.

Debitage

A mass analysis will size and weigh debitage in bulk. The size of the flake does not provide sufficient information for diagnostic or analytical purposes and neither does weight. This methodology only allows for the assumption that there was a large quantity of flakes or a small quantity. Separating each flake into functional categories, such as primary, secondary, tertiary, provides exponentially more information on what people were utilizing lithic material for and where people were fine tuning artifacts.

A total of 12,505 pieces of debitage were collected. The debitage, prior to this study, were placed in bags according to unit, strata and depth. However, in order to gather data from the sheer number of debitage flakes they would have to be analyzed according to material, blocky, shatter, primary, secondary, and tertiary categories. These categories help us understand the types of lithic reduction being performed on the site (Andrefsky 2005). They also help infer details of lithic resource acquisition from the surrounding quarries and trade from quarries outside of the region (Brumach 1987). Also found within the collection are blocky debitage, shatter, and cores.

When comparing the units it becomes clear that tertiary flakes make up the majority of the debitage. This may imply that the site itself was not an area which the original shapers would

40 return to, but a secondary stop in possible resource and food procurement. The lack of a significant amount of primary flakes is indicative of non-permanence. The indigenous group at the site were possibly bringing already flaked tools and cores into the site area and shaped based on the current need of the moment. Typically the completion of flaked stone tools does not occur in one place. The reduction process is completed at different “junctures”(Percora 2001).

Transport of the materials is key in a mobile culture. While the units in question do not provide conclusive evidence on the behavioral patterns of peoples associated with the site, the debitage infers this patterned behavior. Examples of transported lithic tools that have not been fully fashioned can be found in Binford’s (1979) observance of the Nunamiut practice of reducing cores to a transportable state but not to the point where the material could not be shaped into different tools, and in Ozburn’s (1987) identification of reduction “junctures” at the

Buttonhole/Quarry site in New Mexico. While not these examples are not regionally localized to the site, it does point to an area used for later reductions possibly inferring a semi-permanent camp used as a “base” for incursions into the surrounding areas for resource collection.

In addition to utilizing debitage analysis methodology proposed by Andrefsky, the flakes were analyzed with a modification of Dr. Joseph Diamond’s methodology. This is methodology used specifically in the Hudson Valley. The addition of shatter and blocky as a units of analysis provide diagnostic information on the nature of the flake from production. Shatter is produced in any stage of decoration, these flakes are without shape, thin, have no bulb of percussion, have no striking platform and tend to be thin. These crumble around impurities and cortical material.

Blocky’ are formed in early stages and are a square primary flake with no, to few, flake scars on them. Presents of large quantities of blocky, shatter, primary and secondary flakes could indicate a quarry site or a primary decoration location (Andrefsky 2005; Diamond 2017).

The unit of measurement for the debitage has two components. The flakes were originally excavated per strata layer and therefore must be analyzed accordingly. Additionally, within the strata this paper further segregated the debitage into lithic source and functional reduction. A vast majority of the flakes recovered are tertiary. Primary flakes are produced from removing material from host rock, bedrock, cobbles and field chert. These rocks have been found in their natural state and have not been modified by humans. Primary flakes have no flake scars that

45 would be indicative of later phases in lithic reduction. Cortex, host rock, and an unworked surface occupies half of the flake. Secondary flakes have some cortex however exhibit flake scars from initial reduction. Tertiary the type of and shape of this flake provides evidence that final reduction activities were being performed when the flakes were produced (Andrefsky 2005;

Funk 2004). Blocky chert fragments are rectangular or cube like in shape, often being primary or secondary flakes that have broken along cortex or lines of impurities in the lithic material.

Shatter, similarly, is without a clear shape, often missing the classic flake curvature and bulb of percussion (Diamond 2017). Unlike blocky chert, shatter is more common with secondary decoration. Cores themselves could be utilized as a tool. They could be used for chopping, scraping or cutting. Generally, cores are the end result of a large primary, secondary flake or made from a cobble. Cores are conical or ovoid in shape and have bilaterally and multifaceted flake scars marking the surface. From the core large and small flakes can be extracted to produce more complex tools or simple cutting edges.

BSS: This stratum contained a total of 2787 flakes with the majority of flakes being tertiary, from either Esopus or Mount Merino Chert. The second largest flake category is shatter which contained 364 flakes most of which were Esopus and Indian River. Very few primary secondary, blocky or shatter were recovered from this layer.

MBS: This stratum shares a similar trend to the BSS. This stratum has the highest percentage of debitage out of the three natural stratum. There are a total of 5667 flakes in this layer. 4350 of these flakes are tertiary, 1007 are shatter, and 255 are blockies. Esopus, Mount Merino and

Eastern Onondaga are the three largest chert categories.

MYBS: This is the oldest of the three stratum and has a total of 3993 flakes. Of these flakes 2732 were tertiary, 933 were shatter, and 261 were blocky. The most abundant three chert types were

Esopus, Mount Merino and Indian River.

DS: A historic inclusion layer, this context contains 75 flakes of debitage. There were 49 tertiary, 18 shatter and 8 blocky found. The three largest chert groups were Mount Merino,

Esopus and Eastern Onondaga.

Ceramics

In the north east of the United States, prior to the introduction of ceramics, Native

Americans would have utilized local deposits of talc/or steatite, commonly known as soapstone due to the minerals slick greasy texture. The rock is a metamorphic rock containing a varying ratio of magnesia and silica which provides a soft carvable stone with a strong crystalline structure. Rock outcrops containing steatite are uncommon in the northeast and would have had to been lugged long distances to be used (Richie 1973). The stone would have been carefully carved into varying irregularly shaped vessels, depending on available material, and lugs would have been added to aid in transport. These were somewhat unwieldy and valuable due to their

48 material. One sherd of steatite was recovered was recovered in the MYBS stratum. These vessels were a relatively short lived and found only in Transitional period (3600-2600 B.P.). For the majority of the Preceramic Archaic era vessels were constructed from plant fibers such as bark or reeds. Cooking would have been done by heating rocks. The resulting product from heating and dropping into water would be jagged and reddened. This fire cracked rock (FCR) is present in abundance on all Archaic sites. Dr. Eisenberg collected and recorded FCR on the

Hendrickson Site, however the excavators on the Perry Site mentioned the FCR but did not accurately record the material. It was present within each unit.

The first pottery that was found in the Americas was from South America between 4,950 and 4,450 years before present and made its way to North America by 4,450 B.P. and around

2,950 B.P. in the Hudson Valley (Richie 1969; Kammen 2001). Ceramics are made from clay deposits with both organic and inorganic material that is fired, or dried, until hardened. The hydrous aluminum silicate, partly what gives clay its color, are malleable when moist but become hard and durable when heated between 600-1000 degrees Celsius. People crafted these ceramics by hand by modelling and coiling clay. Prehistoric peoples learned to shape, cut and style the ceramics in a variety of manners. The styles of complete ceramics recovered from archaeological sites can be dates and affiliated with cultural groups (Levine 1999). In the northeast, ceramics appear at the end of the transitional and the beginning of the Early

Woodland. These pots would have been simple and bag like in their constructions utilizing coarse quartzite or steatite as temper. This collection contains very small fragments of a variety of Woodland pottery. Many of which are not able to be categorized aside from textured decorations or non-textured decoration. There are five hundred thirty six fragments of prehistoric pottery scattered throughout the contextual strata of each unit.

Bowman’s Brook Incised (2950 - 3350 B.P.): These vessels have shallow, broad, incised lines.

They can frequently exhibit, right angled lines, zig zags, herringbones on the smoothed exterior of the vessel. They are usually shaped like a paper wasp nest with straight or marginal in-sloping of the rim (Kraft 1975). The sherds from this vessel are red-yellow or orange. One pot sherd was recovered in the deeper MYBS stratum at 62cm.

Corded/Cord wrapped: There are one hundred and seventy three (32.2%) sections of cord wrapped pottery found within the four units. These are portions of the body or the rim that cannot be identified or categorized in a specific type set of pottery but have clear indentations from woven cordage on the fragments.

51

Incised: Seen later in the woodland period (Richie 1952) thirty two (6%) incised pottery fragments were located. Nine found within the BSS, eighteen from the MBS, and five from within the MYBS.

Jack's Reef Corded (1350-1150 B.P.): The entire body of this ceramic is wrapped in a network of cordage (Rieth 2013). Approximately ⅓ of a complete ceramic vessel was recovered from the site. Eight fragments were found in BSS, twenty-eight were recovered in MBS and fourteen were recovered in MYBS (a total of 9.3%).

Leaf Wrapped Corded: One (0.2%) of the many decorative patterns found on aboriginal ceramics is a leaf wrapped stick. One leaf wrapped fragment was recovered from the MYBS stratum.

Owasco Corded Collar (1700-550 B.P.): This is a cord-maleated vessel with smooth neck and a low collar with a cord impressed design with multiple horizontal/vertical banding, or oblique cord impressed lines. Occasionally punctuates can occur under low castellations. Shallow cord impressions can transect the lower edge of a collar. Vessel bodies are globular or elongated and always networked with cord marks (Hart 2011; Hart and Brumbach 2003; Schulenberg 2002).

One sherd (0.2%) was recovered deep in the MYBS stratum at 73 cm.

Smooth Bodied Ceramics: These are ceramic fragments with no One-hundred-thirty-one (24.3%) fragments of smooth bodied ceramics were found. Twenty-four from BSS eighty-one from the

MBS and twenty-six from MYBS.

52

Steatite: (3600-2600 B.P.) Used infrequently prior to the introduction Vinette I ceramics, steatite, or soapstone, is an easily shaped mineral that was utilized to craft large vessels. These vessels are affiliated with the Orient, Susquehanna Broad and Frost Island archaeological cultures (Levine,

Sassaman, and Nassaney 1999). One (0.2%) small fragment was recovered from the MYBS.

Unknown: An unfortunate effect of taphonomic processes is that aboriginal ceramics are highly susceptible to destructive forces and easily decompose in the archaeological record.

Additionally, ceramics are often similar in appearance to the surrounding soils and can be mistaken as such. This can lead to the ceramics being damaged during excavation. There were one hundred forty five (27%) unknown pottery fragments in the collection. Thirty-four found in

BSS, ninety-three in MBS and eighteen in MYBS.

Wickham Punctate (1350-1050 B.P.): Two fragments (0.4%) of this pottery found, one each, in the MYBS and the YS. Wickham Punctate is a cord wrapped ceramic with a three dot pattern in the pattern of a face or effigy (Richie and MacNeish 1949).

Discussion/Conclusions

Phases Present

The occupation on this site is expansive and ranges (9,500 B.P. - Contact). Projectile points offer the best means for dating the site and recording the various phases. There is continual but likely not a constant occupation of the site; however, there are projectile points from each period and phase within each period. There are points from the Early, Middle and late Archaic; Transitional

53 and Early, Middle and Late Woodland. Within the collection there are a handful of small flaked glass debitage fragments that would indicate occupation at contact as well. This indicates the significance of this sites location over a long period of time (Grument 2009).

The phases present on the site are: Early Archaic Phase I (9450-8950 B.P.), Vergennes

Phase (5950-4950 B.P.), Vosburg Phase (4950-4450 B.P.), Sylvan Lake/Lamoka Phase (4450-

3850 B.P.), River Phase (3850-3650B.P.), Snook Kill Phase (3650-3450 B.P.), Orient Phase

(3050-2700 B.P.), Meadowood (2950-2450 B.P.), Rossville (2550-2150 B.P.), Fox Creek (1600-

1450 B.P.), and Levana (850-650 B.P.).

Gaps in Evidence

No C-14 samples were taken on the Perry Site so more specific dating could not be achieved, neither were flotations samples taken. Additionally, the fragments of ceramics do not offer enough of a surface to acquire a sample for residue analysis. Overall the contexts were preserved in their original state.

The older artifacts were found in the MYBS stratum and the most recent were found within the upper portion of the MBS and the BSS. There is some movement of artifacts through these layers of the soil due to bioturbation and varying hydrology of the sandy terrace over time.

Additionally, there would have been millennia of tree growth and removal by the indigenous people. Tree roots and earthworms are some of the taphonomic forces that could alter the location of artifacts by several centimeters. The only disturbances, and not all units exhibited these disturbances, were historic refuse pits that had intruded into prehistoric contexts, as well as a large amount of soil movement near the Perry House as a result of a foundation construction in the mid-19th century.

54

Bone was recovered and saved within the respective contexts. These were present in both historic and prehistoric proveniences. The large sieve size may have allowed for a loss of some material. Additionally, the soils in the Hudson Valley do not foster good preservation for bone.

However, this is not a zooarchaeological study and the osteological material is being analyzed separately. Post holes were noted but not measured or sampled by the excavators. Fire cracked rock was also noted in each unit but not recorded. Unfortunately, the excavators’ bias in these regards provides gaps in site information.

Evidence for Activities Over Time

Defining the use of a site is key to any archaeological site study. However, in the prehistoric setting of New York State, understanding the functional uses of any site in a Hunter-

Gatherer setting can be difficult due to the mobile nature of much the Archaic period of the region. Discussion of functional use should start with the two following principles in mind: “(1) distinguishing between different kinds of residential sites, including different seasonal residences; and (2) identifying special purpose or activity sites in distinction to residential sites.

(Curtin, Nelson, and Schreyer 2008:44)

The lithic evidence points to a permanent large settlement in the later contexts and a large seasonal camp used as a possible extraction point or for hunting, lithic acquisition, fishing and trade in earlier contexts. Correlating this information with the possible gender related activities may lend credence to this notion. Presence of both lithic material and pottery hints to a larger group size with a multitude of activities being performed on the site. The artefactual evidence that was found shows a consistent return to the site through the temporal spaces by the occupants of the Hudson valley. No culture is static—dynamic change through the different populations of

55 this site would have involved a multi layered and complex history. This history may have changed with the inclusion of new trading, resource prevalence, and climate (Richie and Funk

1973).

The nature of the site is clear in the activity of resource collection. This large residence may have been associated with different functional uses. Funk (1993) notes that depending on the resource available in a particular setting many intergrades could exist within a site. The

Archaic sites of New York and most of the Northeast rarely appear to have been a year round camp. Sites were probably occupied for a few months at a time. As seasonality played a major role in resource acquisition in the life of the Archaic population so did access to water for

Woodland populations (Moeller 1992). Though not analyzed in this paper a multitude of faunal remains were recovered including: white tail deer, various turtles, sturgeon, turkey and waterfowl.

The pottery associated with the post Archaic setting shows a prevalent return and permanent settlement of the site. The region provides a resource rich environment and a convenient placement for access to lithic quarries and food. From the Early Archaic to the Late

Woodland the area around the Perry Site would have been rich with wetlands and river flora and fauna. The proximity to abundant local cherts and access to a network of waterways places the site in the prime location for trade, commerce, and movement of people and resources.

During the Transitional and Woodland periods this site would have offered people who would have been seasonally utilizing the rich resources of the site to be able to occupy the area for longer periods of time. Manos, pestles, scrapers and grinding stones recovered from the later contexts as well as abundant aboriginal ceramics and post holes indicate that entire family groups were present at one time (Stewart 1977). This would indicate that the site was not a small

56 hunting camp with a primarily male occupancy.

This is true even in the earlier Archaic Periods of occupation. A nutting stone and some pestles were recovered very far into the lower MYBS into the YS stratum. Plant processing tools along with a multitude of other tools (drills, scrapers, gravers etc.) in the lower contexts suggest that this site has been occupied by entire family groups as well. This location would have acted as a base camp in Archaic occupations to nearby quarry sites, fishing locations, and plant extraction points.

Population

Of the three stratum layers MBS contains the highest concentration of prehistoric material. This is an indicator of the increase in social complexity, population and localized activity from the earlier MYBS stratum. The debitage and lithic source material show that the people residing at the Perry House Site were primarily focused on a localized economy.

Almost all of the lithics found on site are made from local lithic sources. Most contain tertiary decortication flakes. This is not a specialized work camp for lithic acquisition, rather a place in which many people finalized tools like projectile points and knives, or retouched tools like scrapers and drills. Within each stratum 90% of all lithic tools were made from locally acquired chert sources. 10% of the tools were of foreign material, such as Epler/ Harmonyvale or

Jasper. However, only 1% of the debitage was of foreign material. This suggests that the foreign lithics were arriving as reduced cores or already made tools and were occasionally “touched up” as needed. As time progressed the value of Indian River Chert decreased by 10-15% and both the

Onondaga Cherts increased in usage by 10-15%, which is mirrored with the debitage found on site and the lithic tools found on site. There is a 13% increase in Esopus Chert artifacts in the

57

BSS from the MYBS. This indicates a growth in value on these cherts types. There could be a variety of reasons for this including preference of the slightly closer Esopus and the higher crystalline Esopus. Indian River is found across the Hudson (about a mile away) and is more similar to shale, rather than the buttery glassy Esopus, in its crystalline structure. Mount Merino makes up 14-19% of the debitage in all stratum and between 29-35% of the tools depending on the stratum but is slightly more common in the older MYBS stratum.

There is also a disparage between the percentage of lithic artifacts found on site and the quantity of debitage per lithic type. The majority of lithic tools are made from Esopus and Mount

Merino cherts; however, the percentage of debitage does not match that of the artifacts recovered. This is likely due to the majority of these artifacts being transported, used, traded and lost off the site. Lithics would have been acquired at the local quarry transported to the Perry Site for final reductions and tool manufacturing, then traded for other items such as

Epler/Harmonyvale or Jasper. This could explain why there are 10% more foreign artifacts than foreign debitage. Additionally, around 50% of the debitage was Esopus Chert through the three stratum (MYBS 46% MBS 55% BSS 49%) but only 13-26% of the tools were made from

Esopus. There is a notable 13% increase in Esopus Chert tools in the later BSS stratum from previous stratum.

Ceramic vessels and the cultures that were affiliated with them are another means of establishing the identity of the people who resided at the Perry House Site. Steatite (ca 3600-

2600 B.P.) which is a mineral not found in the vicinity of the site had to have been traded in from a distance. Like the Jaspers found the soapstone vessels would have been traded from

Pennsylvania from the Delaware people along the Delaware River and the Susquehanna River to

58 the Wallkill River and Rondout Creek. Wickham Punctate (1350-1050 B.P.) and Jack's Reef

Corded (1350-1150 B.P.) are also affiliated with the Delaware people.

Bowmans Brook Incised (2950 - 3350 B.P.) is more affiliated with coastal or marine cultures in

New York which is close to the Perry Site. Owasco Corded Collar (1700-550 B.P.) is seen with both the early Iroquois and Algonquian cultures around the Perry Site and is strongly affiliated with maize, and squash agriculture. Though the Iroquois were not present as far south as the

Perry Site, this connection from up the Hudson River further reinforces that this site was well connected through a multitude of trade routes. In addition to a variety of datable ceramics a small fragment of children’s pot was recovered. This curved rim fragment has a smooth body with rough jagged incised decorations similar to that of a child's drawing. Though only known to be from the Woodland Period in general, the presence of children on the Perry Site would indicate the importance of this location as a nucleation point for entire family groups and Woodland villages.

Conclusion

Of the four units that were excavated on the Roscoe Perry House Site, 472 lithic tools,

12,505 pieces of debitage, and 536 potsherds were recovered from deeply stratified and preserved contexts. The prehistoric material found paints the picture of a very large multicomponent multiphase site that has been occupied consistently for about 9,000 years. This site in its earlier occupations would have been a well-connected seasonal base camp where people would have had easy access to a variety of lithics, marine resources and plant material.

The diversity of high quality lithics and local fisheries could have provided earlier occupants with tradable goods in which to build up a social network over the millennia. As the population

59 grew, the people became more socially constricted, and the cultures became stratified an increase in trade, agriculture and sedentation occurred (Funk 1976; Hart, Thompson and Brumbach

2003). This is marked by the increase in traded ceramics (or methods of making ceramics) and steatite that originated from surrounding cultural groups. The increase in the volume of lithics found on the site also hints to longer occupations by more people.

This analysis focused specifically on lithic material sources, what stratum they were found in, and the amount of tools made from these lithics. The Hendrickson Site next door collaborates with the conclusions derived in this paper. However, the methodology regarding the lithics differed. A mass analysis of the 41,739 flakes and sorting them and the artifacts according to chert color and size was the extent of the lithic analysis. This paper placed an emphasis on the lithic source and the proximity to the site in order to illustrate how the site was being used and if over time there was change. Minor changes in lithic sources did occur between the Archaic and

Woodland Periods. Though, local cherts remained a dominate factor on the Perry Site, how they were used changed. There wasn't a marked increase in exotic cherts, rather a change in preference of local cherts. There was an increase use of Esopus chert, Western Onondaga,

Eastern Onondaga and a decreased emphasis on the Indian River Chert.

In the future, an increased emphasis on the chert in the region, as in locating and mapping distances and GPS coordinates of outcrops, and comparing them to other local collection can provide insight on the role of the Perry House Site played in the local economy.
