Archaeologists must be able to draw on the wealth of the earth sciences as well as cross-disciplinary fields such as archaeometry and material sciences. This “webliography” is intended to aid in this endeavor, providing links not only to archaeological sites of value to lithic archaeologists, but also to relevant sites from those other fields as well. Northwest Research Obsidian Studies Laboratory This catalog is maintained by Northwest Research Obsidian Studies Laboratory to provide support and information for the archaeology community in general. Geoarchaeological and geochemical investigations of obsidian sources and artifacts are an area of active research and new sources are being located, relocated, and geochemically identified on a regular basis. |
