摘要
摘要在《古美国》杂志最近发表的一篇文章中,作者Metin I.Eren、David J.Meltzer和Brian M.Andrews描述了在俄克拉荷马州古德森岩石避难所从古代环境中发现的一组类似克洛维斯的文物。根据这一发现,他们得出的结论是,如果没有真正的克洛维斯点,我们就无法可靠地识别真正的克洛维斯组合和地点,尤其是藏匿处,我们不应该认为其他技术特征,如套鞋剥落和棱柱形刀片制造,明确地代表了克洛维斯。在这篇文章中,我们提出了两个额外的工作假设,这两个假设可能解释了Goodson Rock Shelter报道的记录:(1)这个组合根本不像克洛维斯;或者(2)这个组合是克洛维,但混合了年轻职业的文物。我们恳请Eren、Meltzer和Andrews提供有关Goodson Rock Shelter组合的背景和关联的更多信息,以及对该场地最低矿床的更彻底的发光分析。
Comments on the Lithic Technology and Geochronology of the Goodson Rock Shelter
ABSTRACT In a recent article published in PaleoAmerica, authors Metin I. Eren, David J. Meltzer, and Brian M. Andrews describe a set of Clovis-like artifacts recovered from an Archaic context at Goodson Rock Shelter, Oklahoma. With this discovery, they conclude that we cannot reliably recognize true Clovis assemblages and sites, especially caches, without true Clovis points, and that we should not consider other technological characteristics such as overshot flaking and prismatic blade manufacture as unequivocally representing Clovis. In this essay, we propose two additional working hypotheses that potentially explain the reported record from Goodson Rock Shelter: (1) the assemblage is not a Clovis look-alike at all; or (2) the assemblage is Clovis, but mixed with artifacts from younger occupations. We respectfully call on Eren, Meltzer, and Andrews to provide additional information about the Goodson Rock Shelter assemblage’s context and associations, as well as a more thorough luminescence analysis of the site’s lowest deposits.

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.
