Very interesting content leading to fascinating concept putting ancient people into the site. Speaker handsome too. Third talk I've watched by him this week.
Truly excellent presentation! i was able to assist with a paleo dig recently and they collected/mapped all chips... you've taken that data to a new level!
Brilliant. Very nice. Excellent presentation and speaking aspects, I could listen for another 90 mins. Love your studio with old school 3 light door, crankcase "head banger" multi pane window" with hardwall and puttycoat plaster. Thanks for the very informative GREAT SESSION
I've read his book, "Toward A Behavioral Ecology of Lithic Technology" and it's an excellent data science methodology book. I'm unfortunately not an anthropologist/archaeologists, but I am a data nerd in my daily grind, and find this lecture and his book both so satisfying.
As a knapper, when I made 89 Folsoms over two summers, it was 2 attempts per sitting i.e. days at 50-60% success. 28 points plus 27 preforms = 28 days if they were equally enthusiastic. Two guys for two weeks. Barny and fred, Wilma and Betty and dino, at Barger for a month or two, or over a winter. Troublesome chert must be heat treated for Folsom. This is done under the main hearth (harder in winter). Flutting takes place at "the same spot" per individual if they each have tools, or at one spot if tools are shared. Folsom is NOT high skill. This is a myth. It is average skill plus proper blade making tools. Love the video, excellent work. Also, we don't tend to see the brief "low skill" phase of knapping prehistoricly, simply because it is such a small window in the arc of a tool makers career. I think the "low skill" biface may be, a heat treatment preform?
We got paleo architecture here! Jumps out and slaps you upside the head at about 44:25. Y'all don't need no p values to see the veridicality of this pattern. Does my old UW grad student heart good to see great science clearly explained and with fascinating implications for our understanding of what humans are, and have been, about. Super stuff, Todd. Thanks you.
I wonder about the northern exposure for winter occupation Also, the odd shaped hearthe site might be an outdoor hearth Very normal to have an inside and outside fire space
A suggestion the speaker seems to have his face full size about half the time and does not leave the slides up long enough It's best when the slides are full size but most of the time WWE have the gentleman taking 40% of the screen. Best wished and thankyou for videos
I would wonder about security with a perimeter to protect against large predators looking for all that extra meat sitting around, and tasty children just waiting to be snacked on. Surely this would be a risky time to be living in a flimsy shelter guarded with pointy sticks and sharp rocks. Mortality rates must have been high. Where are all the dead people stacked?
I've read the accounts of Indian women living tortured existence with no housing camp to camp w as little utility as possible no personal effects to avoid detention connection & imprisonment. My daughter is half seminole also ive heard the elders speak many times
Well now we have 23,000 yr old tracks soo so much for your timelines of habitation etc.
Thank you!

Thank you so much! Wonderously informative and insightful! Your long term study and grit gratify this retired guy. 👍🏼

Excellent talk - so many fascinating points. Yay science!
This was amazing! Thanks.
As a lover of paleo archaeology, this was extremely informative. Definitely compelling evidence.
Hey I’m in Tucson! Have a great day
Over 12 minutes for program to start

This is awesome. Wish we had professionals in Michigan. Mastadont sites everywhere here
Yes! I'm in Bellevue
Where are you located?.
The glacial moraine plains
The skill required in Folsoms is not breaking it when you’re using your tree jig. Besides that pretty easy to make
Skip to 8:30 that’s the actual start

Wow!!
It would be interesting to compare data from objects mapped at Must Farm with what T Surovel compiled in his work with the Durkha
I have some Barger in my family tree.. I Definitely would like for you guys to check the verifications of these names & profiles
A suggestion the speaker seems to have his face full size about half the time and does not leave the slides up long enough
It's best when the slides are full size but most of the time WWE have the gentleman taking 40% of the screen. Best wished and thankyou for videos
And he frequently is pointing out things of intrest on slides after he has turned the illustration off
I have discovered two peleo to contact sites.
I need advice and guidance to document them.
Call your state archaeologist

Fire, hounds, and the ACME Cave Cannon Mk 2000.

Too long to start.
