sloan: a paleoindian dalton cemetery in arkansas • Washington • Published In 1997 • Pages: 53-57
By: Bradley, Bruce A..
Abstract
'The Sloan site artifact assemblage is extraordinary because of the large numbers of whole artifacts that are available for study. The following discussion is a technological reconstruction of the objects classified as Dalton points and bifaces. A near total lack of debitage has meant that interpretations are based on observations of the implements.' (page 53). Bradley reconstructs the production sequence for the Dalton tools found at the Sloan site.
