Synopsis

The 20 chapters in this volume are authored by archaeologists working in the many regions of the Northwest. Projectile points dating from over 10,000 years ago to the historic period are described, illustrated, and placed in their spatial and temporal contexts. The area covered stretches from the Yukon to central Washington and includes all of British Columbia. Many of the projectile points are recent discoveries that have not previously been published.
