This investigation presents archaeological data from Perdiz Creek, a portion of the field school project, using a landscape scale analysis in addition to site-specific information. The Perdiz Creek landscape is compared to an additional landscape unit, noting differences in feature distributions and environmental contexts. Course-grained observations are used to construct hypotheses concerning mobility patterns in different landscape settings. Finally, recommendations are made in regard to how landscape level analyses might proceed in future investigations and how this may contribute to an understanding of prehistoric behavioral diversity in the Southern Trans-Pecos and hunter-gatherer studies in general.masters thesesengCopyright and other restrictions may apply.
