It serves as a compendium of groundbreaking research by the California Fluted Lanceolate Uniform Testing and Evaluation Database (CalFLUTED) project. Details regarding size, morphology, toolstones, basal flaking technology, breakage patterns, repair patterns, manufacturing (as revealed by unfinished fluted bifaces), margin grinding, and flute scratching are provided through this research, both in terms of general trends and noteworthy exceptions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Designed as a ready reference, these data are also summarized for each of the four sample states (California, Nevada, Oregon, Utah). Summaries introduce the history and circumstances of fluted point studies by state, a list of references for each state used in the CalFLUTED study reports, a comprehensive listing of the relevant CalFLUTED study reports, and a breakdown by state of fluted point attribute details as listed above.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Reviews and discussions cover a range of topics, including classification of fluted points, identifying flute scars, and traits that indicate a fluted point is not from the prehistoric Far West. Additional discussions cover hafting alternatives, fluted point dating, far western fluted point typology, and the likely direction of further research on a range of fluted point topics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Utah Press,U.S.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56672926630232,"sku":"9781647691134","price":68.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781647691134.jpg?v=1779518751","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/fluted-points-of-the-far-west","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
