Abstract

ABSTRACT The Antelope Springs Folsom locality is located near Trout Creek Pass, which connects South Park, a high elevation basin in the Rocky Mountains, with the headwaters region of the Arkansas River. The pass is also the source of an eponymous jasper that dominates the small, surface collection of Folsom points, preforms, tools, and debitage we report on here. The Antelope Springs assemblage was focused on the reduction and replacement of a stone tool kit. There does not appear to have been a substantial Folsom-age presence in South Park, although based on other Folsom sites where Trout Creek jasper occurs, and least-cost paths of travel through the southern Rocky Mountains, South Park and Trout Creek Pass may well have been regularly traversed between Middle Park and San Luis Valley, areas that had a more significant Folsom presence.

摘要Antelope Springs Folsom地区位于Trout Creek Pass附近，该地区连接落基山脉的高海拔盆地South Park和阿肯色河的源头地区。通行证也是一种同名jasper的来源，它主导了我们在这里报道的Folsom点、预制件、工具和借记的小型表面收集。Antelope Springs组合的重点是减少和更换一个石头工具包。南公园似乎没有大量的Folsom年龄存在，尽管基于Trout Creek碧玉出现的其他Folsom遗址，以及穿过落基山脉南部的成本最低的旅行路线，南公园和Trout CreekPass很可能经常在中公园和圣路易斯谷之间穿过，这些地区有更重要的Folso姆存在。

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.
