Abstract

ABSTRACT The Firehouse site (12D563) is a Terminal Archaic Riverton culture site located on a bluff overlooking the confluence of the Ohio and Great Miami Rivers in Dearborn County, Indiana. Excavations at the site in 2003 and 2004 yielded a highly diverse assemblage of around 300 bone and antler implements. Such large assemblages of organic tools are rare outside of wet sites, rockshelters, and shell middens and provide a unique opportunity for the study of tool forms not typically recovered in the Midwest. A typological analysis of the Firehouse assemblage indicates some similarities between these tools and Riverton culture bone and antler implements from the type sites in Illinois. Additionally, a microscopic analysis of manufacturing microtraces indicates that most tools were made using a lithic shaving (rather than an abrasion) technique.
印地安那州迪尔伯恩县消防站遗址的终末古骨和鹿角器具检验
摘要:消防站遗址(12D563)是一个位于印第安纳州迪尔伯恩县,俯瞰俄亥俄河和大迈阿密河交汇处的悬崖峭壁上的古代河滨文化遗址。2003年和2004年,在该遗址的挖掘中,发现了大约300个骨骼和鹿角工具的高度多样化的组合。在潮湿的场地、岩石避难所和贝壳中间点之外,这种大型有机工具组合是罕见的,这为研究中西部通常未发现的工具形式提供了独特的机会。对火屋组合的类型学分析表明,这些工具与伊利诺伊州类型遗址的Riverton文化骨骼和鹿角工具有一些相似之处。此外,对制造微滚道的微观分析表明,大多数工具都是使用石器时代的剃须(而不是磨损)技术制造的。
