Site 48SH312:

Abstract

Site 48SH312 is part of an Early Middle Period complex in which at least part of the economy was oriented toward small-scale trapping of bison, utilizing the natural badland topography of the Powder River Basin. Further work is necessary to determine more of the economy as well as temporal and spatial aspects of the complex.     

The Turk Burial Site, 48WA301

Abstract

This fissure burial in the southern mountains contained four adults and one child. Its age is estimated to be between 100 and 300 years, and the anthropometric evidence is consistent with a Shoshonean affiliation. Though considerably disturbed prior to investigation, the site yielded important information about the burial mode and artifacts of a fairly recent people.     

Geology of Archeological Site 48SH312, Wyoming

Abstract

Archeological Site 48SH312 occurs upon slightly weathered shale in the uppermost portion ot the Fort Union Formation (Paleocene) of eastern Sheridan County, Wyoming. Only a trace of a paleosol is developed on the shale. Colluvium overlies the shale. The site is a small remnant of a ravine floor which existed during Kaycee time. Physiography of the present ravine and local distribution of resistant lenticular strata in the Fort Union Formation, suggest that the paleo-ravine was a box ravine with near vertical walls of 5-10 meters. Paleosol development, weathering features, and homogeneity of colluvium are interpreted as indicating a surface that represents late Kaycee time and provides a geological age for the site of 3500 to 4000 years before present.     

Wedding of the Waters Cave, 48 HO 301, A Stratified Site in the Big Horn Basin of Northern Wyoming

Abstract

During the summer of 1959, the writer investigated several rock shelters at the mouth of the Wind River Canyon, about 3 miles south of Thermopolis, Wyoming. One of the rock shelters proved to be of archaeological value. A test trench revealed nearly 3 feet of stratified cultural deposits. The cultural materials fits well in the sequence for the Northwestern Plains, (Mulloy 1958: 204-223) and should be important in an area little known archaeologically.     

Big Horn Medicine Wheel Site, 48Bh302

Abstract

This famous site was investigated by the Wyoming Archaeological Society in August, 1958. An earliest date of 1760 A.D. was established by dendrochronological methods for the construction. Neither the identity of the builders nor the function of the structure could be determined. Avenues for further ethnohistorical research are suggested.     

湖北郧西白龙洞古人类遗址初步研究

湖北省郧西县白龙洞遗址经过两次正式发掘,出土了古人类牙齿化石、石制品、骨制品等文化遗物和大量动物化石,是一处重要的古人类遗址.2007年4-5月,作者在该遗址周围进行了地质、地貌调查,并对以往发掘出土的部分动物化石和文化遗物进行了整理.同年9月,作者在白龙洞进行探察和小规模试掘,出土大量动物化石和少量石制品、骨制品等文化遗物.同时还发现可疑燃烧痕迹、动物骨骼表面痕迹以及特殊的动物化石埋藏现象等古人类活动证据.白龙洞发育于上新世沙坪组砾岩、泥晶灰岩和泥灰岩地层中,近水平状节理和裂隙为洞穴发育提供前提条件,垂直渗流为溶蚀的主要方式.白龙洞遗址属原地埋藏,动物群的组合显示中更新世早期的面貌,石英岩岩脉原料可能是导致石器工业组合显示北方石器工业面貌的原因.对遗址分布及埋藏现象的初步分析显示,白龙洞为一处多功能的古人类活动遗址.

Wickiup Cave

Abstract

Wickiup Cave, site 24BE601, is located in the Tendoy Mountains of southwestern Montana. The site consists of a log, brush, and rock wickiup built in a huge limestone cave. The wickiupand numerous artifacts found in the cave are attributed to historic Tukudika Shoshone occupation.     

The Stricker Site

Abstract

The Stricker site is a multi-component habitation area in Big Bend Reservoir, South Dakota. Component A, the latest and most I imited occupation, represents the Dakota from the middle of the 19th century to the present. Component B represents the major occupation by people following the Coalescent Tradition in the form of the Extended Coalescent variant. Component C, a minor occupation, is representative of the Initial variant of the Middle Missouri Tradition. Most of the features and artifacts pertain to Component B. The analysis provides evidence for a transition from the Shannon phase into the Felicia phase
