Ponce-Gonzalez -- Stone tool technology at the Gault site : exploring technology, patterns, and the early human occupation of North America / The end of an era? Early Holocene Paleoindian caribou hunting in a Great Lakes glacial refugium / Late Pleistocene occupation(s) in North America / Midwestern Paleoindians, stone tools, and proboscidean extinctions / Where tides of genes perpetual ebb and flow : what DNA evidence tells us about the peopling of the Americas / Comments and discussion / Fabiana M. Martin, Dominique Todisco, Joel Rodet, Francisco J. Prevosti, Manuel San Román, Flavia Morello, Charles Stern, and Luis A. Borrero -- Nora Viviana Franco and Lucas Vetrisano -- César Méndez, Amalia Nuevo Delaunay, Omar Reyes, Antonio Maldonado, and Juan-Luis García -- Rafael Suárez -- Francisco Javier Aceituno-Bocanegra and Antonio Uriarte -- Guillermo Acosta-Ochoa, Patricia Pérez-Martínez, and Ximena Ulloa-Montemayor -- Ciprian F.

"This edited volume, which emerged from a symposium organized at the 2014 SAA meeting in Austin, Texas, covers recent Paleoamerican research and site excavations from Patagonia to Canada. Contributors discuss the peopling of the Americas, early American assemblages, lifeways, and regional differences. Many scholars present current data previously unavailable in English. Chapters are organized south to north in an attempt to shake the usual north-centric focus of Pleistocene - Early Holocene archaeological studies and to bring to the forefront the many fascinating discoveries being made in southern latitudes. The diversity of approaches over a large geographic expanse generates discussion that prompts a re-evaluation of predominant paradigms about how the expansion of Homo sapiens in the Western Hemisphere took place. Those who work in Paleoamerican studies will embrace this book for its new data and for its comparative look at the Americas."--Provided by publisher.
