Previous descriptions of the site indicate that there is an Early Caddo component as well as a Middle Caddo (Whelan …


Archaeological Test Excavations At 41kf118 Kaufman County, Texas, John W. Clark Jr. Jan 1990

Archaeological Test Excavations At 41kf118 Kaufman County, Texas, John W. Clark Jr.

Index of Texas Archaeology: Open Access Gray Literature from the Lone Star State

Site 41KF118 was discovered during construction of improvements to SH 34 in Kaufman County and was tested in April 1990, to determine its eligibility for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places. Materials recovered as a result of test excavations suggest a Late Archaic occupation for that portion of the site within the right-of-way. Most of the site lies southeast of the highway right-of-way. Tests also showed the cultural deposits to be sparse and badly disturbed by previous land clearing operations and cultivation. No additional work is recommended at this site.

Assessing The Early Effects Of Emerging Trade Blocs: Research Agendas For North America And Europe., Janos L. Wimpffen, Russell B. Capelle Jr, Ann M. Oberhauser, James E. Randall, Barney L. Warf

Ann Oberhauser

General agreement exists about at least two aspects of the formation and development of the trade blocs of North America and Europe. It is agreed, first, that the codified terms of the Canada-U.s. Free Trade Agreement (FTA) and the Single European Act (referred to here as Europe 1992) are formaI manifestations of certain inexorable processes and, second, that enactment of the agreements has consequences beyond the intentions of the framers. Other than these basic postulates, one is unlikely to find considerable agreement among researchers. Differences in theoretical outlooks, access to and interpretation of data, and national perspectives aIl conspire to …
