Summary

"This book provides a detailed technological and typological discussion and interpretation of the Late Paleoindian lithic technology of the Cummins Site Complex of Lake Minong, Thunder Bay, Ontario. The author presents regional comparisons of the Cummins assemblages with other pertinent Late Paleoindian lithic assemblages to evaluate the utility of the "Lakehead Paleoindian Complex" as a useful analytical and interpretive construct. Significant data on Paleoindian and early Archaic quarrying activity and reduction strategies form a key part of the interpretations of the Cummins site. The presence and documentation of these activities in a Late Paleoindian context represents a significant contribution to a little known aspect of behaviors associated with lithic technology of this time period."--Abstract of review by John E.
