University of Wyoming anthropologists Marcel Kornfeld, George Frison and Mary Lou
Larson recently published a book about one of North America's most significant Paleoindian
sites.
"Hell Gap: A Stratified Peleoindian Campsite at the Edge of the Rockies (The University
of Utah Press) begins the analysis of the vast quantity of material recovered at the
site.
Hell Gap was first uncovered in the late 1950s and yet remains one of the least understood
and most poorly published of the sites that helped establish the framework for Paleoindian
archaeology as it exists today.
More about the book can be found here.
