questions." You will find an excellent timeline. Just click on the year dates to

Mesa vs Folsom Lithic Technologies __ "At times, the variation between lithic
technologies is understood to be the result of functional requirements. At other
times it is argued to be a product of cultural change. The Paleoindian
traditions of Mesa and Folsom were contemporaneous and both hunted bison.
However, their lithic technologies were vastly different, as was their access to
lithic material. This paper will argue that the technological differences are
not functional or cultural, but are the result of proximity to the lithic
source." There is little I can add. - illustrated - From Tony Baker and Michael
