The Pefrablanca Flake Tools: an Unchanging Technol Ogy? Arrrand Salvador B
The Pefrablanca Flake Tools: An Unchanging Technol ogy? Arrrand Salvador B. Miiares- Abstract Three car.tes were excaoated in Pefiablanca, northeastern Luzon in 2003. These caaes yieldedflake toolsfrom earlierpreceramic contexts (c.25,000-3,s00 BP) andlater ceramic ones (c.3,500-1,980 BP). Technological and use-wear analysestnere conducted to test if there was any change in techniques of manufacture or use of the flake tools through time. The oldestflake assemblage in Callao caae (c.25,000 BP) reueals aprobableformallithic technology with apredominance of blade-likeflakes and two probable spear points. The Holocene assemblages indicate no significant changes in manufacturing techniques throughout therohole sequence,beingbasedon asimplehardhammer percussion technique. Use-wear analysis also indicated no significant change, withflakes being utilised onhard and soft contact materials. This paper presents a scenario in which hunter-gatherer populations Lraoe coexisted during the past 3,500 years with agricultural populations lioing on the Cagayan Valley alluaial soils.

[email protected] Eutay Volume 12, pp. 1,3-34 jares 14 Mi Introduction studies of prehistoric human adaptation and culture rely heavily on stone tools for background data. Their durable characteristic makes them one of the few cultural materials to survive the test of time. Knowledge of how a stone tool was manufactured, used, and discarded maybe useful to extrapolate past human behaviour. In 2003, I excavated three cave sites in Pefrablanca, Cagayan Province, Northeastern Philippines (Mijares 2005). The excavation is an attempt to understand the transition from Upper Paleolithic to Neolithic in Northem Luzon. The region contains a number of caves, most of which contain archaeological materials. -
Behavioural Complexity and Modern Traits in the Philippine Upper Palaeolithic
Behavioural Complexity and Modern Traits in the Philippine Upper Palaeolithic AlFred F. PAwlIk introduction The discussion of cultural, cognitive, and behavioral modernity has a long tradition in europe’s prehistoric archaeology ( Dibble 1989; Hahn 1986; Jelinek 1982; klein 1995, 1999; Mellars 1989a, 1989b). The appearance of specialized blade indus- tries, bone and antler tools, and especially figurative art, musical instruments, and personal ornaments are seen as significant indicators of the highly developed cultural and cognitive abilities of their makers (Clottes 2001; Conard 2003; Conard et al. 2004). The seemingly sudden appearance of expressive art and symbolism together with complex tool technologies in europe at around 40,000 years ago has been attributed to explosive cultural and cognitive advancement with the arrival of ana- tomically modern Homo sapiens ( Klein and Blake 2002; Mellars 1991; Mithen 1996). Whether this Upper Palaeolithic revolution in europe was due to social factors or genetic mutation, was related to changes in the ecosystem, or has a cultural expla- nation (such as competition with another human species, the Neanderthals) is still under debate ( Bar-Yossef 2002; Conard et al. 2004; d’errico 2003; Haidle 2006; McBrearty and Brooks 2000; Mellars 2005; Zilhão 2001). Yet, the “human revolu- tion” model is used to explain the success of the Homo sapiens immigrants over the Neanderthals ( Bräuer and Smith 1992; Conard 2006, 2008; Mellars 2005). On the other hand, potential indicators of an earlier and gradually developing cul- tural and cognitive modernity have been seen in African assemblages. The appearance of some modern cognitive traits (e.g., production of projectile points, shell-fishing, personal ornaments, notational or incised pieces, and pigment processing) in Africa has been dated back to the Middle Pleistocene, earlier than the first evidence of ana- tomically modern hominids 200,000 years ago (Henshilwood et al. -

Report on Ananalysis of Spindle Whorl from Callao Cave, Pefiablanca, Northern Luzon Philippines
Report on anAnalysis of Spindle Whorl from Callao Cave, Pefiablanca, Northern Luzon Philippines ludith Cameron and Armand Salaador Mijares Introduction The Callao limestone formation in Peflablanca, Cagayan Province, northern Luzon has been the subject of archaeological research since the 1970's (Figure l). ln 1976-77, archaeological exploration of caves sites in the area was conducted by the National Museum in search of Palaeolithic sites. The extensive explorations resulted in the identification of 43 caves and rockshelter containing archaeological materials on the surface floor (Ronquillo n.d., Ronquillo and Santiago te77). Since then a number of caves in the Callao limestone formation were excavated between '1976 and 1,982, and, 1999. The cave sites excavated in the southern section were the Rabel Cave, Laurente Cave, Alejandro Malanos Cave, and Pedro Pagulayan Cave (Henson1977, Ronquillo 1981). In the northern section were Arku Cave, Musang Cave, Lattu-Lattuc Cave, Callao Cave, and Minori Cave (Cuevas 1980, Dalupan 1981, Mijares 2002, Thiel 1980, 1990a, 1990b). Callao Cave, with an elevation of 85 meters (amsl) and a coordinate of 17" 42' North latitude and 121o 49' Eastlongitude, was excavated by the team of Cuevas (1980) from 1979 to 1980. Callao Cave is the biggest and longest cave in the area. A seven chambers cave, Callao has an elevation of 85 meters (amsl). It has length of 366 meters from the mouth to the back narrow chambers with a width of 14 to 35 Hukog Volume 9, pp. F13 6 Cameron and Mijares meters. The height of the cave ceiling varies from 10 to 45 meter. -

William Hendricks' Political Circulars to His
William Hendricks’ Political Circulars to his Constituents : Congressional Period, 1816-1822 Frederick D. Hill* William Hendricks, though unknown to most modern Hoosiers, played a prominent role in the later years of In- diana territorial history and the early decades of statehood. His career in public office spanned the period from 1813, when he became clerk of the territorial House of Representa- tives, to 1837, when congressional adjournment marked the end of his tenure as United States senator. Hendricks’ service in Congress-in the House from 1816 to 1822 and in the Senate from 1825 to 1837-occurred at a tjme when it was difficult for western congressmen to keep in touch with their constituents. Because travel by horseback, riverboat, or carriage was slow, they could not visit their home districts during a session of Congress. With sessions lasting from three to six months, they could not be in their districts more than six to nine months each year. Long distance communication also was difficult because without the telephone, the telegraph, or electronic media, messages could be transmitted no faster than a person could travel. Hendricks and other representatives engaged in voluminous correspondence, but few of the people they represented could have been reached by individual letters. One effective and widely used device for keeping constituents informed was the political circular. During the eighteen years that Hendricks represented the people of Indiana in Congress, he wrote political circulars to his constituents annually. He usually wrote them about the time Congress adjourned, and they were widely distributed * Frederick D. Hill is Professor of History at Indiana Central Col- lege, Indianapolis. -
