ABSTRACTTwo short antler billets found on the floor of a storage/refuse pit at site 34WD130 in northwestern Oklahoma provide archaeological evidence for the intentional use of “stubby” billets in flintknapping. Radiocarbon dating of one of the billets yielded an age of 650 to 662 cal AD, placing the billet within the Plains Woodland period of western Oklahoma chronology. Associated artifacts corroborate this age. Evidence for the method of billet manufacture as well as evidence of use are presented. Links provide 3D models of the pair for better viewing and hands-on access.KEYWORDS: Antler Billetlithic replicative experimentOklahomaPlains Woodland AcknowledgementsThis project was not possible without the support of local residents, including Travis Rutledge and Josh Cooke. Fieldwork was accomplished by J. Hueffed and L. Bement. Photogrammetry and modeling was performed by K. Wyatt. F. Sellet provided leads to additional archaeological billets.

在俄克拉何马州西北部34WD130遗址的一个储存/垃圾坑的地板上发现了两个短鹿角坯，为在打石过程中故意使用“粗短”坯提供了考古证据。其中一个钢坯的放射性碳定年法得出了公元650至662年的年代，将其置于俄克拉何马州西部平原林地时期。相关的文物证实了这个年代。提出了钢坯制造方法的证据以及使用证据。链接提供了一对的3D模型，以便更好地观看和动手访问。关键字:鹿角巨石复制实验toklahoma平原林地致谢如果没有当地居民的支持，包括Travis Rutledge和Josh Cooke，这个项目是不可能的。实地工作由J.

ABSTRACT Middle Stone Age (MSA) point styles may reflect the development of regional identities of human social groups. MSA people likely used these points for various functions including as weapon tips. Recent work in cultural evolution suggests that functional aspects of technology tend to be more standardized and subject to negative selective pressures, while stylistic aspects are highly visible and tend to be more variable. This study examines the patterns of segmented (proximal vs. distal) standardization for unretouched MSA points from six archaeological assemblages using landmark-based geometric morphometrics to quantify shape variation. Contrary to expectations, our results show that the proximal end has greater shape variation than the distal end. Segregating within point variation provides clues to past function and style patterns in the MSA. This approach also opens new avenues for exploring ethnographic and recent archaeological projectile points.
