Archaeology is an Interdisciplinary Science

Obsidian Artifacts at the Ohio Historical Society

November, 10, 2013

Dr. Brad Lepper, of the Ohio Historical Society Archaeological Blog, has written an interesting post on new scientific methods for identifying the source of obsidian artifacts.

"The idea that some day you’ll be able to go to Yellowstone Park and stand in the actual quarry pit used by Hopewell obsidian miners, or the local folks that mined the obsidian on behalf of the Hopewell, is incredible."
