This off-print from the Bulletin of the Texas
Archaeological and Paleontological Society, Volume 22, 1951
discusses at the archaeology of Oklahoma. This work was
produced due to a
general lack of
published information on
Oklahoma Archaeology at
the time.
"The prehistory of
Oklahoma is not well
represented in the
archaeological
literature, and much of
the published
information is not
readily accessible.
Therefore, it seems
desirable to bring
together in a summary
fashion the information
available about the
various archaeological
manifestations found
within the state. A
portion of the following
information is based
upon published accounts
by other individuals
while other sections of
the text present new
material previously
unpublished. Photographs
have been carefully
selected to illustrate
what are believed to be
typical artifacts for
the cultures concerned.
For the most part, these
specimens have not been
illustrated elsewhere,
and they will serve to
compensate for the
limitations in
descriptive
information."
