The Use of Stone and Hunting of Reindeer
ARCHAEOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENT 12 THE USE OF STONE AND HUNTING OF REINDEER By Lena Holm O m University of Umeå ° Ai. ^ Department of Archaeology ARCHAEOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENT 12 Distribution: Department of Archaeology, University of Umeå S-901 87 Umeå, Sweden Lena Holm THE USE OF STONE AND HUNTING OF REINDEER A Study of Stone Tool Manufacture and Hunting of Large Mammals in the Central Scandes c. 6 000 - 1 BC. Akademisk avhandling, som för avläggande av filosofie doktors examen vid universitetet i Umeå kommer att offentligt för svaras i hörsal F, Humanisthuset, Umeå universitet, fredagen den 31 januari 1992 klockan 10.00. Abstract The thesis raises questions concerning prehistoric conditions in a high mountain region in central Scandinavia; it focuses on the human use of stone and on hunting principally of reindeer. An analysis of how the stone material was utilized and an approach to how large mammals were hunt ed result in a synthesis describing one interpretation of how the vast landscape of a region in the central Scandinavian high mountains was used. With this major aim as a base questions were posed concerning the human use of stone resources and possible changes in this use. Preconditions for the occurrence of large mammals as game animals and for hunting are also highlighted. A general perspective is the long time period over which possible changes in the use of stone and hunting of big game, encompassing the Late Mesolithic, Neolithic, Bronze Age and to a certain extent the Early Iron Age. Considering the manufacture of flaked stone tools, debitage in the form of flakes from a dwelling, constitute the base where procurement and technology are essential. -

Original replies to the Answers were filed by the Petitioner on March 30, 2005, and April 1, 2005, respectively. The reason for supplementation is new information that is detailed in Petitioners Amended Contentions, being filed concurrently. This new information includes a declaration by three cultural resource experts who completed a visit to the GCEP Water Field site on August 5, 2005. The experts identified a man- made earthwork on the site, crossed by well-heads, just as Petitioner has claimed in prior filings. 7eIPLALTC-= <3 - 31.E The new information also includes two parts in a series of articles by Spencer Jakab about USEC's dismal economic prospects, the second published only yesterday, August 15, 2005. It also includes new statements by Bill Murphie, field office manager for DOE with jurisdiction over Piketon, about USEC's unwillingness to reimburse the government for improper expenses identified in a report by the DOE Office of Inspector General, and about the possibility that DOE may seek to recover these costs. -
Prehistoric Lithic Technology} Workshops} and Chipping Stations in the Philippines
Prehistoric Lithic Technology} Workshops} and Chipping Stations in the Philippines D. KYLE LATINIS THE PHILIPPINE ISLANDS represent an important area for research of problems concerning prehistoric archaeology in Southeast Asia. These insular areas, located east of the biogeographic boundary known as Huxley's line, include a variety of tropical environments. These islands remained detached from the continental portion of Southeast Asia throughout the Pleistocene and Holocene. Archaeolog ical research has documented human occupation and adaptation from at least the Late Pleistocene and Early Holocene within these islands. Unfortunately, relatively little intensive prehistoric archaeological research has been undertaken in the Philippines compared to some areas in mainland South east Asia, Oceania, and Australia. Warren Peterson's dissertation (1974) focused on a series of sites in northern Luzon and represents one of the foundation stud ies in the Philippines for modern archaeology. Peterson's work has often been cited and his conclusions used for the development of models concerning prehis tory in the Philippines and Southeast Asia. Peterson's research was conducted during a period when behavioral reconstruc tions from site assemblage analyses were prominent in archaeological research. Specifically, Peterson attempted behavioral reconstruction from the analysis of stone tools from the Busibus/Pintu site in northern Luzon, Philippines. A reanal ysis of the entire Busibus/Pintu lithic assemblage has revealed problems with Peterson's initial analysis and interpretation of this site-problems that will be addressed in this paper. Lithic technology, stone tool manufacture, and selection and reduction strategies will also be explored. Finally, new interpretations of the nature of the lithic assemblage and site activities at Busibus/Pintu rock shelter will be provided. -

My Walk with the Ancients
MY WALK WITH THE ANCIENTS By Vincent James Stanzione (This is a preliminary ‘Essay’ presented to the Newark Earthworks Center and the participants of the 2009 ‘Walk with the Ancients’ and Newark Earthworks Day 2009. This is not edited much so please read it lightly as if out walking barefoot. I just wanted to write something about ‘my’ experience and ‘our’ experience together on the Walk with the Ancients. I would also like to know what you would add to what I have written here of our experience walking the Great Hopewell Road. So in your own good time let us share our story and see if we can’t create something that tells of what we did together with our feet, legs, bodies, minds and spirits. I just want to say I wrote this in good will and hope my opinions can be seen as openings to a greater dialogue and not as the last word or anything close to something ridiculous like that! I hope my writing is helpful in promoting both exchange and change for a better life. Best of the best to all of you, Vinny Stanzione) The Great Hopewell Road Path of Pilgrimage Chillicothe to the Octagon Earthworks of the ‘Great Circle-Octagon Mound City’ October of 2009 Why I write I write in fulfillment of my social and cultural obligation to the people of the Newark Earthwork Center in Newark Ohio who invited me to participate in this year’s ‘2009 Walk with the Ancients.’ When I left Ohio I promised several people that I would write my reflections on our experience of walking together on the Great Hopewell Road. -
Stones, Bones, and States: a New Approach to the Neolithic Revolution
1 Stones, Bones, and States: A New Approach to the Neolithic Revolution Richard H. Steckel and John Wallis February 19, 2007 The invention of agriculture, the wide spread shift to a sedentary lifestyle, and the growth of large population centers began around 10,000 years ago in what we now call the Neolithic revolution. This profound change in human activity marks the beginning of modern human society and has long been of interest to economists, anthropologists, and social scientists in general. Was it caused by a shift in relative prices due to climate, population pressure, or changes in the animal environment? Did it result from technological innovation in human knowledge about the physical world? Was institutional change a catalyst? Early research was highly speculative, with abundant explanations built on little data. New evidence from archeology and anthropology has eliminated some hypotheses and raised possibilities for answering more specific questions. This paper contributes to both the Neolithic empirical evidence and the theoretical questions about the Neolithic revolution. We propose a theoretical answer to how larger social groups were organized. A sedentary life-style was necessary for settled agriculture, and the shift to larger population units occurred contemporaneously with, and may have even preceded, the spread of new agricultural techniques. We then focus on the paradoxes inherent in the question: why did people move into towns and cities? Urban living came at a substantial cost. Accumulating evidence from skeletons, which we discuss below, shows that Neolithic cities and towns were unhealthy. Their residents were smaller in stature than hunter-gatherers and their bones had relatively more lesions indicating dental decay, infections and other signs of physiological stress. -
