problems in the prehistory of the north american subarctic : the athapaskan question • Calgary • Published In 1977 • Pages: 102-105

By: Fowler, William F..

Abstract
Fowler looks at the linguistic evidence as it pertains to when the different Athapaskan speakers diverged from one another and when they entered an area. Dating of these events is relative and not absolute. Fowler does not think ancient microblades are an Athapaskan culture trait.
