Roberts Thank You Mrs. Virginia T Cotter would like to thank the very large number of archaeologists who sent cards of condolence and sym­ pathy to her family on the passing of her husband, John L. Cotter. The numerous cards, flowers and messages truly helped in a sad time. Because of the large num­ ber of letters it is not possible for Virginia to personally reply to each expression of concern. Thankyou to all ofJohn's friends, colleagues and fellow archaeologists.

    COLONIZER GEOARCHAEOLOGY OF THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST REGION A Dissertation DR. BRETT R. LENZ COLONIZER GEOARCHAEOLOGY OF THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST REGION, NORTH AMERICA Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Leicester By Brett Reinhold Lenz Department of Archaeology and Ancient History University of Leicester June 2011 1 DEDICATION This work is dedicated to Garreck, Haydn and Carver. And to Hank, for teaching me how rivers form. 2 Abstract This dissertation involves the development of a geologic framework applied to upper Pleistocene and earliest Holocene archaeological site discovery. It is argued that efforts to identify colonizer archaeological sites require knowledge of geologic processes, Quaternary stratigraphic detail and an understanding of basic soil science principles. An overview of Quaternary geologic deposits based on previous work in the region is presented. This is augmented by original research which presents a new, proposed regional pedostratigraphic framework, a new source of lithic raw material, the Beezley chalcedony, and details of a new cache of lithic tools with Paleoindian affinities made from this previously undescribed stone source. 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The list of people who deserve my thanks and appreciation is large. First, to my parents and family, I give the greatest thanks for providing encouragement and support across many years. Without your steady support it would not be possible. Thanks Mom and Dad, Steph, Jen and Mellissa. To Dani and my sons, I appreciate your patience and support and for your love and encouragement that is always there. Due to a variety of factors, but mostly my own foibles, the research leading to this dissertation has taken place over a protracted period of time, and as a result, different stages of my personal development are likely reflected in it.

Books in the series aim to disseminate new knowledge and new perspectives about the history of science and technology, enhance and extend education, foster public understanding, and enrich cultural life. Collectively, these books will break down conventional lines of demarcation by incorporating historical perspectives into issues of current and ongoing concern, offering interna- tional and global perspectives on a variety of issues, and bridging the gap between historians and practicing scientists. In this way they advance schol- arly conversation within and across traditional disciplines but also to help define new areas of intellectual endeavor.

  • Evidence for Bigfoot? an Investigation of the Mill Creek 'Sasquatch Prints'
    Evidence for Bigfoot? An Investigation of the Mill Creek 'Sasquatch Prints' Some have called these footprints with dermal ridges authentic, but evidence to the contrary is abundant and mounting. Michael R. Dennett HE LEGEND of Sasquatch, the giant humanoid monster alleged to inhabit the Pacific Northwest, has taken an important new turn. A Tseemingly growing number of scientists and, for the first time, a respected magazine are accepting as valid evidence that indicates the creature exists. Newsweek (September 21, 1987) ran a dramatic article in its "Science" section about startling new proof of Bigfoot. The evidence, reported Newsweek, consisted of four sets of footprints that showed dermal ridges, the foot's equivalent of fingerprints. Forty fingerprint experts agreed they were authentic, the article said. The magazine quoted a skeptical anthropologist from the University of California, Berkeley, as conceding that "it would be impossible to fake prints with dermal ridges." Plaster casts of the giant footprints, some 15 inches in length, have been collected by Grover Krantz, an anthropologist at Washington State University (WSU). Krantz, a longtime advocate of the existence of Bigfoot, claims that the casts show "detailed microscopic anatomy absolutely perfectly." The casts, first reported by Krantz in 1982, are indeed impressive. Anthropologist Robert Meier, of Indiana University, who had originally declined even to look at the impressions, revised his opinion after viewing them at a dermatoglyphics convention. In a recent paper Professor Meier wrote: "I think [Krantz] should be commended for his thorough and dedicated investigation into the Sas- quatch matter, and generally he has offered cautious interpretations of the Michael R.
