Two coprolites recovered from the excavations at Chapman Caves 1 (CA-INY-1534A) were analyzed to determine their origins, and if possible to obtain data on human resource use at the site. Both specimens were determined to probably be canid in origin, but their presence within the cultural deposit may suggest they were from dogs belonging to the human occupants of the site. In addition, the results of protein residue analysis from three other coprolites found on the surface of the site are reported.

This paper presents a description and analysis of an obsidian fluted point recently discovered within the bounds of the Nevada Test and Training Range (NTTR) in southern Nevada. Analyses include physical and technological descriptions of the point and source analysis of the obsidian from which it is made. These analyses are followed by a discussion of the typological attribution of the point based on a recent comparison by Beck et al. (2019) of 462 Far Western fluted points with 95 Clovis points from the Southwest, Plains, and Northwest. We conclude with a discussion of where the NTTR point fits in the regionís prehistory, and what its raw material source suggests about population mobility during the terminal Pleistocene.
