Book Description
Debitage, the by-product flakes and chips from stone tool production, is the most abundant artifact type found on prehistoric sites. Archaeologists now recognise its potential in providing information about the kinds of tools produced, the characteristics of the technology that produced them, human mobility patterns and even site function, applying scientific analyses to its study. This volume brings together some of the most recent research on debitage analysis and intepretation, including replication experiments, and offers methodologies for interpreting variability in assemblages at the micro and macro level.

Book Description
For more than a century, soldiers have marched, ridden, driven, and flown to Camp Bullis to practice tactics and marksmanship. Camp Bullis was established in 1906 because the modern artillery and small arms could not be fired safely within Fort Sam Houston. The camp expanded during both world wars to accommodate even more powerful artillery and the tens of thousands of troops being mobilized. Between these two wars, the movies Wings, The Big Parade, and The Rough Riders were filmed there. The Army's changing needs would transform the type of training conducted at Camp Bullis. Today, soldiers, airmen, sailors, and marines still go to Camp Bullis to practice not only tactics and marksmanship on state-of-the-art ranges and simulators but also lifesaving medical techniques, demonstrating once again that a good range is essential.

Category : Indianola (Tex.)
ISBN : 9781880510308
Book Description
Indianola is about the events as they occurred in chronological order. The chronological method enables the reader to become immersed in the evolving life of the port and see those events through the eyes of the residents there, who knew not what the outcome would be---hurricane destruction and abandonment. Neglected, even overlooked, by historians in this century, Indianolamust be restored to her rightful place in the annals of Texas. The eyes of Texas must be refocused on the vastly important role she played in its development as Republic and State.
