Description
The artifact record is an indication of a culture's
temporal and psychological boundaries. The design,
manufacture, use and subsequent disposal of artifacts
mirror the norms of the society. This thesis utilizes
these cultural characteristics to delineate the
temporal and cultural location of two Antillean Period
sites on Middle Caicos, British West Indies. The data
consisted of the Antillean Period import ceramics. The
data were analyzed using a Multi-response Permutation
Procedure to assess frequency distribution within each
site. Four hypotheses were tested to determine
cultural homogeneity between the sites. Results
indicated that the sites were occupied seasonally for a
special purpose i.e., salt collection activities.
