Lithic Technological Organization, Mobility, and Landscape Use from Jakes Valley, Nevada University of Nevada, Reno Paleoindian Occupations in the Great Basin: A Comparative Study of Lithic Technological Organization, Mobility, and Landscape Use from Jakes Valley, Nevada A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Anthropology By Mark B. Estes Dr. Gary Haynes/Thesis Advisor May, 2009 Copyright by Mark B. Estes 2009 All Rights Reserved THE GRADUATE SCHOOL We recommend that the thesis prepared under our supervision by MARK B. ESTES entitled Paleoindian Occupations In The Great Basin: A Comparative Study Of Lithic Technological Organization, Mobility, And Landscape Use From Jakes Valley, Nevada be accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Gary Haynes, Ph.D., Advisor Michael R. Bever, Ph.D., Committee Member Ted Goebel, Ph.D., Committee Member P. Kyle House, Ph.D., Graduate School Representative Marsha H. Read, Ph. D., Associate Dean, Graduate School May, 2009 i Abstract Previous research on Paleoindian occupations in the Great Basin has provided many more questions than answers. Central to understanding this early period is the relationship between its Western Fluted and Western Stemmed Tradition occupants. Little is known of the temporal, cultural, and technological behaviors of Western Fluted peoples, while the Western Stemmed Tradition inhabitants are only slightly better understood. This thesis presents the results of intensive technological studies that focused on determining raw material provisioning strategies, lithic conveyance zones, and landscape use to identify mobility and settlement patterns. Lithic assemblages from 19 Paleoindian era occupations, encompassing several environmental zones within Jakes Valley in eastern Nevada, provide data on the technological organization and movement patterns of early humans in the Great Basin, and reveal previously unknown behaviors that help differentiate the early hunter-gatherer groups who made Fluted and Stemmed projectile points. ii Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to thank my parents whose constant nagging, I mean cheerful support, helped motivate me through the toughest of times. Thanks and I love you guys. Funding for this project was provided by the Sundance Archaeological Research Fund at the University of Nevada, Reno. The UNR Graduate Student Association awarded a research grant to aid in its completion. The Amateur Archaeologists of Nevada graciously donated additional funding and are an amazing group of people. Ted Goebel suggested the idea for this project and allowed me to analyze previous collections from the area, and also provided helpful comments and suggestions when needed. Craig Skinner at Northwest Research Obsidian Studies Laboratory sourced all my volcanic samples and conducted hydration studies in a very efficient manner while providing a much-appreciated discount. Additional obsidian hydration analyses were conducted by Tim Carpenter of Archaeometrics, who kept a cool head while mine flew off—my apologies. George T. Jones at Hamilton College was kind enough to review the trace elements of unknown fine grained volcanic samples and identify their sources. Special thanks are due to my advisor Gary Haynes for many thoughtful discussions and reviewing previous drafts of this thesis, and to committee members Kyle House and Michael Bever whose interactions prompted me to think critically about my research. A gaggle of archaeologists at the Ely District Bureau of Land Management (including Mark Henderson, Nathan Thomas, and Lisa Gilbert) were kind enough to allow me access to their archives, answer numerous questions, and permit work in Jakes Valley. Thanks to the many field and lab minions who helped record sites iii in extremely unshady conditions, label artifacts, and enter data—you know who you are. Without sounding like a lush, I would like to thank beer for helping me relax when stress levels peaked, and always prompting me to check what I wrote the previous night. To the Great Basin Paleoindians, I couldn’t have done this without you. Lastly, I want to thank Messy Marie for being awesome. iv Table of Contents ABSTRACT….…………………………………………………………………………….i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ……………………………………………………………….ii LIST OF

A character called Thomas Jerome Newton is surrounded by the dazzle and blaze of a bank of television screens. He looks vulnerable, overwhelmed and enigmatic. The moment is an oddly perfect metonym of its age, one that speaks uncannily of commercial confusion, artistic innovation and political inertia. The film is Nic Roeg’s The Man Who Fell to Earth – an adaptation of Walter Tevis’ 1963 novel – and the actor on screen is David Bowie, already celebrated for his multiple, mutable pop star identities in his first leading role in a motion picture. In an echo of what Nicholas Pegg has called “the ongoing sci-fi shtick that infuses his most celebrated characters” – including by this time, for example, Major Tom of “Space Oddity” (1969), rock star messiah Ziggy Stardust and the post-apocalyptic protagonists of “Drive-In Saturday” (1972) – he performs the role of an alien (Kindle edition, location 155).

  • Searching for the Wild: the Changing Post-War Conceptions of Environmentalism and Gender
    SEARCHING FOR THE WILD: THE CHANGING POST-WAR CONCEPTIONS OF ENVIRONMENTALISM AND GENDER Scott Obernesser A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of The requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2010 Committee: Jolie A. Sheffer, Advisor Lawrence Coates © 2006 Enter your First and Last Name All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jolie A Sheffer, Advisor Throughout the course of contemporary environmentalism, activists have found voice within practices of civil disobedience. Similarly, movements to reassess traditional constructions of gender have been entrenched in disobedient practices in hopes of upsetting dominant discourse. Through disobedience, distinct ties have been drawn between shifting gender ideologies and treatment of the environment. This work looks to examine two 1990’s manifestations of disobedience in terms of environmentalism and gender: Jon Krakauer’s Into The Wild (1996) and Chuck Palahniuk’s Fight Club (1996). Through inspection of the text’s two main characters, Chris McCandless and Tyler Durden, we are able to examine links inherent in environmental and gender activism and thereby prompt reassessment of gender and environmental praxis. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS Page INTRODUCTION ................................................................................................................. 1 CHAPTER I.
