PROTEIN RESIDUE ANALYSIS OF ARTIFACTS FROM SITES HHOV-305, HHOV-308, HHOV- 316, HHOV-319, HHOV-323, HHOV-327, HHOV-328, AND HHOV-339 FOR THE MUSKEG VALLEY QUARRY PROJECT, ALBERTA, CANADA

Artifacts from sites HhOv-305, HhOv-308, HhOv-316, HhOv-319, HhOv-323, HhOv-327, HhOv-328, and HhOv-339 in the vicinity of Fort McMurray, Alberta, were tested for possible protein residues. The artifacts from these sites appear to date to approximately 9000 and 7000 BP. Analysis of protein residues...

Description
Summary:Artifacts from sites HhOv-305, HhOv-308, HhOv-316, HhOv-319, HhOv-323, HhOv-327, HhOv-328, and HhOv-339 in the vicinity of Fort McMurray, Alberta, were tested for possible protein residues. The artifacts from these sites appear to date to approximately 9000 and 7000 BP. Analysis of protein residues from the artifacts’ surface can provide information concerning processing/hunting of animals with these tools.
