Paleoindian and Archaic Activities at Dust Cave, Alabama: The Secular and the Sacred

Abstract

Located in the Tennessee River valley of northwestern Alabama, the site of Dust Cave was occupied from the Late Pleistocene through the Mid-Holocene. Over four meters of deposits in the cave vestibule have preserved a record of a transforming climate, local geomorphology and the human responses to these changes through time. A synthesis of the floral, faunal, lithic, and feature data in combination with the information from a bone cache, and dog and human burials allow for an overview of life during the occupation of the cave.
