The North-Central cultural dichotomy on the Northwest Coast of North America : its evolution as suggested by wet-site basketry and wooden fish-hooks / Dale R. Croes.
Antiquity 71 (1999): 594-615
Where there are wet sites and organic artefacts are preserved, one can study artefacts of perishable materials which may by their nature offer more information than do lithic assemblages. On the US/Canadian Northwest Coast, with its series of celebrated wet sites, basketry and wooden fish-hooks survive so often that a decisive issue in the region's regional pattern can be explored this way Ñ with archaeo-experimental help from unlucky inhabitants of the local aquarium!
