This account of the archaeological investigations of Mill Iron, a Paleo-Indian site in southeastern Montana, explores the Goshen complex, a poorly understood late Pleistocene (ca. 11,000 BP) cultural phenomenon that falls between and is overshadowed by the better-known Clovis and Folsom cultures. Drawing on evidence assembled at Mill Iron and other scattered Goshen sites, George Frison and his team show, for the first time, the possible historical, technological, and adaptive affinities among the hunter-gatherer groups who lived on the northern High Plains at the end of the Ice Age.In addition to the editor, contributors to "The Mill Iron Site" are Gerald R. Clark, Burton D. Williams, Eric E. Ingbar, Mary Lou Larson, John Albanese, Bruce A. Bradley, Kaoru Akoshima, Julie Francis, Lee Ann Kreutzer, Lawrence C. Todd, David J. Rapson, Jack L. Hofman, Linda Scott Cummings, Richard G. Reider, C. Vance Haynes, Jr., Danny N Walker, and Matthew Glenn Hill.
