Adovasio.The end of the Pleistocene era brought dramatic environmental changes to small bands of humans living in North America: changes that affected subsistence, mobility, demography, technology, and social relations. The transition they made from Paleoindian (Pleistocene) to Archaic (Early Holocene) societies represents the first major cultural shift that took place solely in the Americas. This event-which manifested in ways and at times much more varied than often supposed-set the stage for the unique developments of behavioral complexity that distinguish later Native American prehistoTexas A&M University Anthropology SeriesAntiquities, PrehistoricNorth AmericaCongressesHuman beingsClimatic factorsNorth AmericaCongressesHuman ecologyNorth AmericaCongressesHunting and gathering societiesNorth AmericaCongressesIndians of North AmericaAntiquitiesCongressesPaleoecologyHoloceneCongressesPaleoecologyPleistoceneCongressesPaleoecologyNorth AmericaCongressesPaleo-IndiansNorth AmericaCongressesPleistocene-Holocene boundaryCongressesNorth AmericaAntiquitiesCongressesAntiquities, PrehistoricHuman beingsClimatic factorsHuman ecologyHunting and gathering societiesIndians of North AmericaAntiquitiesPaleoecologyPaleoecologyPaleoecologyPaleo-IndiansPleistocene-Holocene boundary304.2Bousman C.
