Ice Age Hunters of the Rockies cover

Explores the many questions that still surround the Pleistocene cultures of 12,000 years ago and the adaptations of these early civilisations to the last great ice age, covering issues such as the time of arrival of the first Americans, adaptation to various environments, and the use by early people of high-altitude sites.

"...contributes substantially to understanding the colonisation of the New World. What is more, by looking at Paleoindian assemblages in new ways and with better methodologies, by documenting variation among stone-tool assemblages, and by developing ways to scrutinise dates and stratigraphy, the Paleoindian archaeology described... will benefit all archaeology." -- American Anthropologist.
