Abstract:: The Whale Cove Site, 35LNC60, is a shell midden, showing occupations from 3010 B.P. to 330 B.P., spanning the Early and Late Littoral Periods. Analysis of mammalian faunal remains, bone and antler tools, lithics and discriptions of recovered shellfish artifacts allows for chronological refinement of the previously mentioned archeologically defined...

Abstract:: The Philpott site (35CS1) is located on the north bank of the Coquille River near Bandon, Oregon. Test excavations at the site were conducted in 1978 by Oregon State University under the direction of Richard E. Ross. One artifact assemblage and one distinct component were defined during the analysis of...

Creator:: Clark, Linda Ann
Abstract:: Seal Rock (35LNC14) is a late prehistoric shell midden site located on the central Oregon coast. Information derived from the faunal remains, radiocarbon dates, and location and size of the midden deposits suggest the site represents a late littoral stage of cultural adaptation. Analyses of lithic artifacts, and bone and...

Abstract:: Analysis of the pinniped remains from site 35 LNC 14 reveal the presence of four species: Eumetopias jubata (Stellar sea lion), Zalophus californianus (California sea lion), Callorhinus ursinus (Northern fur seal),'and Phoca vitulina (Harbor seal). Ratios based on minimum number of individuals calculations disclose a high incidence of mature Stellar...

Abstract:: During the summer of 1986, an archaeological testing project was completed at seven prehistoric campsites primarily located in the upper Deschutes River Basin of central Oregon. Testing was focused on two low-density "lithic scatters", an archaelogical site type which is especially abundant in this obsidian-rich region but which, to date,...

Creator:: Havercroft, Francine M.
Abstract:: During the summer of 1981, Oregon State University archaeologically tested three prehistoric sites on the William L. Finley National Wildlife Refuge. Among the sites tested were typical Willamette Valley floodplain and adjacent upland sites. Most settlement-subsistence pattern models proposed for the Willamette Valley have been generated with data from the...

Creator:: Lindsay, Lee W.
Abstract:: This thesis was to develop a bone artifact typology for the Oregon coast. This typology was used to test the hypothesis that different geographical regions of the Oregon coast would have different artifact assemblages associated with them. These regions, identified by geologist from landform changes, have been defined as: region...

Creator:: Zontek, Terry
Abstract:: A sample of fish remains from two late-prehistoric archaeological sites on the central coast of Oregon were analyzed to partially evaluate two models of aboriginal subsistence-settlement systems. One model is based upon ethnograhpic data, primarily Drucker's (1939), for Yakonen speakers collected in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The...
