The paso del indio site (VB-4), Puerto Rico: A site for change
The Paso del Indio site, discovered and partially mitigated in the midst of a major highway construction project, is the largest and deepest stratified, multi-component prehistoric site found to date on the island of Puerto Rico, and likely the entire Greater Antilles. The site exhibits a number of cultural occupation levels, separated by the deposition of sterile soil levels. This circumstance created a stratigraphic sequence of thousands of years of occupation, over 5 meters deep, representing the four prehistoric culture history periods known for Puerto Rico, as defined in the 1950s. This article is a summary of the work accomplished on this site thus far, analysis of selected material culture, and recent contributions of the site to Caribbean archaeology.
期刊介绍:
Published quarterly, this is the only general journal dedicated solely to North America—with total coverage of archaeological activity in the United States, Canada, and Northern Mexico (excluding Mesoamerica). The North American Archaeologist surveys all aspects of prehistoric and historic archaeology within an evolutionary perspective, from Paleo-Indian studies to industrial sites. It accents the results of Resource Management and Contract Archaeology, the newest growth areas in archaeology, often neglected in other publications. The Journal regularly and reliably publishes work based on activities in state, provincial and local archaeological societies.
