ABSTRACT Investigations of two inland sites on western Santa Cruz Island containing red abalone (Haliotis rufescens) midden strata provides insight into aspects of settlement systems between 4,700 and 3,200 B.P. Oxygen isotope analysis of mussel (Mytilus californianus) shells revealed that both sites were occupied during the summer and fall. Artifacts and floral and faunal remains indicate that CA-SCRI-796 probably was a residential base whereas CA-SCRI-758 was a camp. The red abalone midden at CA-SCRI-758 is distinctive, given the site’s high-elevation location, its location more than 6 km from a source of red abalone, and its thoroughly burned shell within an ashy matrix. The site may have been occupied by separate residential groups for social and ritual purposes. The analysis reveals that settlement systems of the time period during which red abalone middens were created were complex and that larger samples from sites are necessary for a greater understanding of this complexity.

ABSTRACT The proposal of an initial human coastal migration into the New World during the late Pleistocene has gained considerable support in recent years. However, the methods of such a migration are not clear and the proposition that it was accompanied by seafaring around the North Pacific to access a kelp highway is still subject to debate. Recent discoveries now suggest that humans crossed Beringia into North America below the ice at least 17,000 years ago. Conversely, in southern California, people are not recorded on the ancient island of Santarosae any earlier than 13,000 years ago. In contrast, the use of seaworthy watercraft is evident only around 10,000 years ago when sea level inundation separated Santarosae into the four present-day islands of San Miguel, Santa Rosa, Santa Cruz, and Anacapa. At this time, early Holocene sea level rise appears to have stimulated watercraft technological innovations.

Richard Gould, Professor Emeritus at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island, passed away last year at the age of 81. He was a world-renowned archaeologist, making major contributions to the fields of ethnoarchaeology, huntergatherer ecology, maritime archaeology, and forensic archaeology, and doing so in a variety of locations across the globe. While it is important to appreciate the large, international scale of his achievements, which have recently been reviewed by Pate, Veth, and Smith (2020), members of the SCA should know that he actually got his start here in California, and carried out innovative research Figure 1.

理查德·古尔德，罗德岛州普罗维登斯布朗大学名誉教授，于去年去世，享年81岁。他是一位世界著名的考古学家，在民族考古学、狩猎采集者生态学、海洋考古学和法医考古学等领域做出了重大贡献，并在全球各地进行了研究。虽然重要的是要欣赏他的巨大的，国际规模的成就，最近由Pate, Veth和Smith(2020)审查，SCA的成员应该知道，他实际上是在加州开始的，并进行了创新研究(图1)。1964年，理查德·艾伦·古尔德采访了托洛瓦顾问Lydie George T 'uu-daadii-na(左)和Amelia Brown Yuu-k ' wwt -day-na，他们在圣乔治点(CA-DNO-11)的居住区进行了挖掘，他们帮助定位了遗址。记录木板房屋的一部分在右边的沟渠中可见。图片由加州公园和娱乐部门提供，理查德档案馆，图片4968。

ABSTRACT In this article, we report an obsidian hydration dating (OHD) analysis of 32 obsidian artifacts from the Witt Archaeological Locality in Tulare County, California. The artifacts (Western stemmed points, concave base points, crescents) were recovered from agricultural contexts, where provenience is indeterminate. Effective hydration temperature (EHT) was computed from local meteorological records. Hydration rates were based on geochemical source and adjusted for EHT, and ages computed based on the square–root–of–time model. Of the mean OHD ages, 80% are in the 7,000–9,000 cal BP range. The probability that the actual ages could be Clovis or earlier (>∼13,200 years) was computed based on the mean and standard deviation of the OHD ages.
