Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Greater Yellowstone Region was a destination for nomadic hunter-gatherers for at least 12,000 years. Archaeological sites representing the whole spectrum of time, cultures, and activities, have been found throughout the region. Within Yellowstone National Park a number of Paleoindian projectile points and other related cultural materials have been recorded, however, only a handful of buried Paleoindian sites have been identified and excavated. Considering the nature of the archaeological record in the area, some interesting questions surface about the value of the information recorded on the Paleoindian sites. In terms of Yellowstone National Park (YNP) Paleoindian archaeology, is it possible to use the existing Paleoindian sites to make inferences about the landscape choices of Paleoindian cultures? Can the relationship between the location of known Paleoindian sites and the environment be modeled using quantitative methods? If so, is it possible to use the information about land use patterns derived from a known set of sites to find additional, currently unknown, Paleoindian sites? This paper attempts to answer those questions through the development of an archaeological predictive model, focused on Paleoindian sites, for Yellowstone National Park. Utilizing Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and statistical software, a probability model has been created that relates the existence or nonexistence of Paleoindian cultural materials with sixteen selected environmental features. The model output classifies areas within YNP through a set of environmental characteristics favorable for finding Paleoindian cultural material.
Book Synopsis A GIS Predictive Model for Paleoindian Sites in Yellowstone National Park by : Matthew R. Nelson
Download or read book A GIS Predictive Model for Paleoindian Sites in Yellowstone National Park written by Matthew R. Nelson and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper, we present a predictive model of Paleoindian archaeological site locations to better understand settlement patterns and land use by early peoples in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem of the northwestern Great Plains and Rocky Mountains. Within Yellowstone National Park (Fig.1), only two Clovis points have been oficially documented, indicating rare use of the region before ca. 13,000 cal yr BP. However, by 11,5000 cal yr BP, Late Paleoindians frequently traveled to Yellowstone, including the highest elevation settings above 10,000 ft. amsl (Lee 2011) -1st paragraph.

Book Synopsis Building a Predictive Model for Paleoindian Archaeological Site Location Using Geographic Information Systems by : Zachary Jaime
Download or read book Building a Predictive Model for Paleoindian Archaeological Site Location Using Geographic Information Systems written by Zachary Jaime and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research is a multi step method to predict unknown Paleoindian archaeological site locations within Pine Bluffs, Wyoming, situated in the southeastern corner of the state, using a Geographical Information System (GIS). The GIS technology is being used to predict Paleoindian archaeological site locations and will help demonstrate the geographic similarities and differences between already known Paleoindian archaeological sites and random non-site locations in the Pine Bluffs region. Using GIS, one can note the similarities and differences between the Paleoindian sites and the surrounding landscape and, with the help of logistic regression analysis, one can predict the location of unknown Paleoindian sites.

Download or read book The Archaeology of Large-Scale Manipulation of Prey written by Kristen A. Carlson and published by University Press of Colorado. This book was released on 2018-05-30 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Archaeology of Large-Scale Manipulation of Prey explores the social and functional aspects of large-scale hunting adaptations in the archaeological record. Mass-kill hunting strategies are ubiquitous in human prehistory and exhibit culturally specific economic, social, environmental, and demographic markers. Here, seven case studies—primarily from the Americas and spanning from the Folsom period on the Great Plains to the ethnographic present in Australia—expand the understanding of large-scale hunting methods beyond the customary role of subsistence and survival to include the social and political realms within which large-scale hunting adaptations evolved. Addressing a diverse assortment of archaeological issues relating to the archaeological signatures and interpretation of mass-kill sites, The Archaeology of Large-Scale Manipulation of Prey reevaluates and rephrases the deep-time development of hunting and the themes of subsistence to provide a foundation for the future study of hunting adaptations around the globe. Authors illustrate various perspectives and avenues of investigation, making this an important contribution to the field of zooarchaeology and the study of hunter-gatherer societies throughout history. The book will appeal to archaeologists, ethnologists, and ecologists alike. Contributors: Jane Balme, Jonathan Driver, Adam C. Graves, David Maxwell, Ulla Odgaard, John D. Speth, María Nieves Zedeño

Book Synopsis Paleoindians of Yellowstone Lake: Interpreting Late Pleistocene-Early Holocene Hunter-gatherer Land-use in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem by : Douglas H. MacDonald
Download or read book Paleoindians of Yellowstone Lake: Interpreting Late Pleistocene-Early Holocene Hunter-gatherer Land-use in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem written by Douglas H. MacDonald and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last decade, numerous Paleo-Indian sites have been identified at Yellowstone Lake, Wyoming, North America?s largest, high-elevation natural lake. This study presents results of University of Montana research between 2009 and 2016 at 25 sites that provide information regarding human use of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem during the Late Pleistocene-Early Holocene. Despite the recovery of Clovis evidence at Yellowstone Lake, Early Paleoindians rarely visited the region, likely due to difficult post-glacial environmental conditions. After 10,000 BP, upon ameliorating climate changes, Late Paleoindian Cody complex hunter-gatherers increased use of the lake area. In order to better understand regional travel patterns, this study compares lithic raw material and tool use between the Fishing Bridge Peninsula and Osprey Beach Late Paleoindian Cody complex sites. The paper?s conclusion discusses the implications of the research on Paleoindian use of the high-elevation Rocky Mountain region.
Book Synopsis Indians in Yellowstone National Park by : Joel C. Janetski
Download or read book Indians in Yellowstone National Park written by Joel C. Janetski and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The vast, pine-covered plateau now known as Yellowstone National Park has been lived in, traveled through, and exploited by humans for thousands of years. It is still possible to see the remnants of old camps and deep-rutted trails over which ancient peoples crossed the Park to reach the bison-rich plains. When did humans first visit the area we now call Yellowstone? Who lived there when the first Europeans entered the region? What happened to the last of the early inhabitants? How did the Nez Perce, fleeing across the northen of the newly established Park in 1877, escape U.S. troops? How did Indians perceive the Park's geysers and hot springs? These and other questions are answered in this popular history of the Park written by a professional archaeologist who is also a seasonal resident of West Yellowstone. Joel Janetski reconstructs past human events from archaeological evidence and historical sources to provide an engrossing story of the people who knew the area hundreds, even thousands, of years ago and who left their traces amidst the grandeur that is today's Yellowstone National Park.

Book Synopsis Before Yellowstone by : Douglas H. MacDonald
Download or read book Before Yellowstone written by Douglas H. MacDonald and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1872, visitors have flocked to Yellowstone National Park to gaze in awe at its dramatic geysers, stunning mountains, and impressive wildlife. Yet more than a century of archaeological research shows that the wild landscape has a long history of human presence. In fact, Native American people have hunted bison and bighorn sheep, fished for cutthroat trout, and gathered bitterroot and camas bulbs here for at least 11,000 years, and twenty-six tribes claim cultural association with Yellowstone today. In Before Yellowstone, Douglas MacDonald tells the story of these early people as revealed by archaeological research into nearly 2,000 sites—many of which he helped survey and excavate. He describes and explains the significance of archaeological areas such as the easy-to-visit Obsidian Cliff, where hunters obtained volcanic rock to make tools and for trade, and Yellowstone Lake, a traditional place for gathering edible plants. MacDonald helps readers understand the archaeological methods used and the limits of archaeological knowledge. From Clovis points associated with mammoth hunting to stone circles marking the sites of tipi lodges, Before Yellowstone brings to life a fascinating story of human engagement with this stunning landscape.
