Notes: |
"Most chapters began as papers for a symposium on Paleoindian-Archaic transitions in North America, given at the Society for American Archaeology meetings in Salt Lake City in 2005. Not all presenters submitteda chapter, so others were solicited to expand the geographic coverage of the volume"--Chapter 1 |
