“…During the late Pleistocene, Paleoindian foragers (13,500–11,400 cal BP) of eastern North America traversed dynamic landscapes during early migration pulses and subsequently established annual-seasonal mobility patterns (e.g., Anderson 1990, 1995; Anderson and Gillam 2000; Anderson et al 2014, 2015; Ellis 2011; Ellis et al 2011; Kelly and Todd 1988; Meltzer 2004, 2009; Steele et al 1998; Surovell 2000). Embedded within this literature are studies that explore lithic procurement strategies, many through some iteration of least-cost path analysis (LCP) to identify potential toolstone acquisition routes (e.g., Boulanger et al 2015; Eren et al 2016, 2019; Lothrop et al 2018; Miller et al 2019). Understanding the nature of such movements has significant implications for anthropological and archaeological theory (e.g., Anthony 1990, 1997; Bruno et al 2014; Burmeister 2000; Cabana and Clark 2011; van Dommelen 2014), particularly as it relates to regional variability in land-use behavior, culture change, subsistence strategies and prey choice, band territory development, demographic trends, technological organization, and cultural learning and transmission.…”
