AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
Condie and Blaxland examined the obsidian from projectile points and flakes from all stratigraphic levels from both Danger and Hogup Caves for the trace elements Rb, Zr, and Sr. Although they do not know the specific source of the obsidian from either cave site they determined that there was only one primary source of obsidian for Danger Cave and two sources for Hogup Cave.
