Abstract

ABSTRACT Early projectile points frequently referred to as “fishtails” or “Fell” are found from northern Mesoamerica to the southern tip of South America. Becoming a widespread PaleoAmerican marker spanning ∼11,000–10,000 radiocarbon years ago, these points are found in the highest concentration in the Southern Cone of South America. To continue documenting and adding data on this topic, in this brief report we present morpho-technological observations on six specimens recently documented in the Republics of Uruguay and Argentina. The points in this sample resemble other Fell points in their general shape, straight and rounded shoulders, resharpening, and overall dimensions.

关于南美洲南锥体下降点的进一步数据

早期的抛射点通常被称为“鱼尾”或“坠落”，分布在中美洲北部到南美洲南端。这些点是跨越11000 - 10000放射性碳年的广泛的古美洲标志，在南美洲南锥体的浓度最高。为了继续记录和增加关于这一主题的数据，在这篇简短的报告中，我们介绍了最近在乌拉圭共和国和阿根廷共和国记录的六个标本的形态技术观察结果。此样例中的点与其他Fell点在一般形状、直肩和圆肩、重新锐化和整体尺寸方面相似。

期刊介绍： PaleoAmerica disseminates new research results and ideas about early human dispersal and migrations, with a particular focus on the Americas. It fosters an interdisciplinary dialog between archaeologists, geneticists and other scientists investigating the dispersal of modern humans during the late Pleistocene. The journal has three goals: First and foremost, the journal is a vehicle for the presentation of new research results. Second, it includes editorials on special topics written by leaders in the field. Third, the journal solicits essays covering current debates in the field, the state of research in relevant disciplines, and summaries of new research findings in a particular region, for example Beringia, the Eastern Seaboard or the Southern Cone of South America. Although the journal’s focus is the peopling of the Americas, editorials and research essays also highlight the investigation of early human colonization of empty lands in other areas of the world. As techniques are developing so rapidly, work in other regions can be very relevant to the Americas, so the journal will publish research relating to other regions which has relevance to research on the Americas.
