摘要

摘要：我们报道了在内华达州埃尔科县东部戈舒特山谷北部的银带山口附近发现的一个大型人工叉角羚陷阱。证据来自三个密切相关且间隔紧密的石器时代文物表面，称为银带山口复合体。其中两个散点代表一个单独的杀戮区或畜栏，而第三个则代表一个相关的营地。这三个散射体的282个双面点和碎片的组合以短茎Windust和Pinto形式为特征，其他地方的年代可追溯到全新世早期至中期，约8500–7500日历年前。有了这一发现，我们可以坚定地得出结论，大规模集体诱捕偶蹄目始于大盆地东部，比之前认为的要早2000–3000年，这与该地区古印度古风过渡时期人类技术、生存和定居的其他重大变化相吻合。

A Latest-Paleoindian-Aged Pronghorn Trap in the Goshute Valley, Eastern Great Basin, USA

ABSTRACT We report the discovery of a large-scale artificial pronghorn (Antilocapra americana) trap located near Silver Zone Pass in the northern Goshute Valley, eastern Elko County, Nevada. Evidence comes from three closely related and closely spaced surface scatters of lithic artifacts called the Silver Zone Pass Complex. Two of the scatters represent a single kill zone, or corral, while the third represents an associated campsite. The assemblage of 282 bifacial points and fragments from the three scatters is characterized by short-stemmed Windust and Pinto forms, elsewhere dated to the early-mid Holocene, about 8500–7500 calendar years ago. With this discovery, we can firmly conclude that large-scale communal trapping of artiodactyls began in the eastern Great Basin 2000–3000 years earlier than previously thought, and is coincident with other significant changes in human technology, subsistence, and settlement documented for the Paleoindian-Archaic transition in the region.

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.
