Abstract
Hodges discusses the '(1) reduction of residential mobility through time…(2) expansion of the subsistence base with subsequent intensification in the use of certain resources… and (3) development of ceramic technologies. A brief review of how archaeologists have interpreted and explained the Late Archaic-Early Woodland record in Virginia is followed by discussion of some models which have been proposed to explain developments elsewhere in the East.' (page 222). Egloff writes about the Late Archaic and the Early Woodland, but only the material that pertains to the Early Woodland were indexed for OCM (Outline of Cultural Materials) subjects.
