Note "Most chapters began as papers for a symposium on Paleoindian-Archaic transitions in North America, given at the Society for American Archaeology meetings in Salt Lake City in 2005. Not all presenters submitted a chapter, so others were solicited to expand the geographic coverage of the volume."--Chapter 1.
