| Sumario: | The transmission of Clovis fluted-point technology, the earliest well-dated fluted point industry, is considered to have led to regional variants of point forms as a result of cultural drift and founder effects as Paleoindian groups dispersed throughout the Western Hemisphere and adapted to local ecological settings. The papers collected in this volume present recent research and perspectives of a group of archaeologists focusing on regional variation in fluted-point morphology and technology and their relationships to neighboring forms, both spatially and chronologically, as well as the methodology used to examine evidence of their historical development and origin. |
