| Synopsis: |
This monograph although concentrating on the Southern High Plains area (USA) represents a tremendous step forward in understanding fire technology and hot rock technology and their role and relationship within hunter-gatherer societies. It not only elevates the status of hearths and hearthstones as worthy of study within hunter-gatherer research but equally important, also presents new avenues for that research. Contents: 1) Introduction; 2) Background; 3) Approach and Methodology; 4) Geographic Focus; 5) Theoretical Framework; 6) Ethnographic Context; 7) Experimental Approach; 8) Archaeological Results and Analysis; 9) Discussion and Potential for Application to Other Regions; 10) Conclusion. |
