Benton Phase biface production for exchange: analysis of a lithic reduction area at site 40HO13
ABSTRACT Excavations at site 40HO13 in Houston County, Tennessee, documented three prehistoric lithic reduction areas associated with a Benton Phase occupation. The site was located in an area of abundant chert resources, notably Fort Payne chert. The paper focuses on lithic data from one of the lithic concentrations. The analysis determined that the lithic concentrations were the result of biface manufacture. Bifaces were roughed out at the source location. Knapping on site reduced these bifaces to late-stage bifaces. A large number of bifaces (1,453 estimated) were produced within the one concentration. It is argued that these bifaces were not used on site but were transported to other locations for further reduction and use and represent items manufactured for the purpose of exchange. It is suggested that these bifaces may have been exchanged with groups inhabiting the Central Basin area of Tennessee.
期刊介绍:
Southeastern Archaeology is a refereed journal that publishes works concerning the archaeology and history of southeastern North America and neighboring regions. It covers all time periods, from Paleoindian to recent history and defines the southeast broadly; this could be anything from Florida (south) to Wisconsin (North) and from Oklahoma (west) to Virginia (east). Reports or articles that cover neighboring regions such as the Northeast, Plains, or Caribbean would be considered if they had sufficient relevance.
