资源简介:
Twenty-two lithic artifacts from the Jim Pitts site (39CU1142) in South Dakota were
analyzed for possible protein residues. Nine general soil samples also were tested. This site
appears to have experienced multiple occupations ranging from the Paleoindian to Late Plains
Archaic. The Paleoindian occupation yielded artifactual evidence for Foothills-Mountain, Cody,
Folsom, Agate Basin, and Goshen-Plainview components, withthe Goshen complex representing
the most intensive occupation of the site. The heavily processed remains of at least two bison
are associated with the Goshen component. The 22 artifacts analyzed for protein residues are
believed to represent the Paleoindian occupations. Immunological studies have shown that
protein residues from a tool's surface can be identified using modified forensic procedures.
Protein residue analysis of the artifacts from the Jim Pitts site is used to provide information
concerning prehistoric animals that may have been hunted/processed using these tools.
