Archaeological and paleoenvironmental research since 1985 on Fishers Island, New York has delineated a partially radiocarbon-dated Native American cultural sequence beginning in the Late Archaic period c. 4200 B.P. and ending at the Contact period c. A.D. 1600. Investigated settlement types included shell middens, lithic workshops, and inland hunting-gathering camps. Subsistence remains, including nuts, mollusks, and the bones of mammals, fishes, and birds indicate sporadic occupation of the island from spring through fall. Pollen recovered from both fresh water bogs and salt marshes evidence a typical postglacial forest succession beginning with the spruce-fir zone at about 13,000 B.P. and ending with the modern mixed deciduous forest.

E. %K anthropology %XBrennan has provided us with a position paper designed to elicit our responses on the Early Archaic period
as currently known in New York State. I will address my remarks to some of the issues he raises and will also
consider other aspects of the subject in the light of contributions made by our current program of research in the
Upper Susquehanna Valley.
This paper is concerned chiefly with the following problems:
1) The identifying or diagnostic traits of Early to Middle Archaic complexes;
2) The external relationships of these complexes;
3) Relative and absolute chronology, i.e. the position of traits and complexes in the northeastern
developmental sequence and their age in 14C years;
4) The geographic distribution of traits and complexes in relation to possible routes of migration
or diffusion;
5) The density or abundance of surviving lithic remains as compared to other periods, with
implications for estimates of population size.
A cave near Florida, Orange County, New York has yielded caribou bones and a fluted point in the same stratum. Radiocarbon dating of the bones produced a date of 10,580 B.C. ± 370 yrs. In the same region, mastodon and moose-elk bones have been dated at 8050 B.C. ± 160 yrs. and 9000 B.C. ± 150 yrs., respectively. Similar dates have been obtaibned for mastodon remains further upstate. There is, thus, the strong likelihood that New York's Paleo-Indians hunted caribou; they may also have hunted mastodon and moose-elk.
