Description:
An important letter on Univ. of Calif. Anthropology Research Letterhead about the petroglyph sites she had surveyed in the Yerington area of Nevada. Her contribution is The Record of a Hunting Practice at Petroglyph Site NV-LY-1. The letter is addressed to the late Don Frazier whose expertise is best know for his bibliographies on the Derrydale Press and Will James, the author and artist on cowboy fiction. She addresses regarding his own interest in petroglyphs. He had provided her two aerial photos of the site and he helped her regarding his own interest in Arizona prehistory. She has used the large obsidian biface he gave her for which she thanks him and discusses her next project in surveying uncataloged petroglyph sites. She has obtained permission from the Navy to go to the top of Mt. Grant where "Muir reported that he saw Northern Paiutes hunting mountain sheep with diversion fences and stone "men" (which she thinks refer to petroglyphs. Dr. Karren Nissen (1947-2013) spent over…

Description:
Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1927. Octavo. 172 pages, index, illustrated. Moir made several new discoveries for example, the middle Paleolithic sites at Bramford Road and Constantine Road, Ipswich and undertook new investigations at important known localities, Hoxne, Brundon, High Lodge, and Foxhall Road being among the most famous. His assessments for pre-crag or tertiary man have largely been viewed as having taken a wrong turn. His 'artifacts' discounted as natural and probably the product of marine environments. In 1939 he delivered the prestigious Huxley memorial lecture at Imperial College, London. His genius mixed with his flawed assessments make him one of the most controversial figures in early English pre-Anglo-Saxon times. Bound in brown cloth, spine lettering gilt,, a near fine copy with no names or bookplates but with a green stamp 300 on bottom fore-edges and front pastedown. Very nice.

Description:
Austin; (1992): University of Texas Press. First Edition. Quarto. Both volumes are large hardcovers quartos in fine condition in fine dust jackets. Volume 1 gives an introduction to the role of tokens in the rise of agriculture until the invention of writing about 3100 B.C. Volume 2 was issued in a much smaller print run and is rarely seen. The authr presents a system of counters (tokens) which represented a major breakthrough in communication. These tokens were small objects modeled in clay in various geometric forms used for counting and accounting for goods. The system has implications for studies of early Near Eastern civilizations as well as advances in communication and mathematics. The scarce Volume II deals with several thousand tokens, cataloging them by country, archaeological site, including the chronology, stratigraphy, museum ownership, along with line drawings and photographs. A fine set.
