Jordan Highlighted In Fireside Chat By GAIL W. SHANNON The first Fireside Chat was held September 17 at 7:30 p.m. at logwood House. To open the evening, Dr. Janet Greenwood reiterated her theme of "joining together* to welcome the guests; members of the HampdenSydney and Farmville communities, Longwood administrative staff, faculty, and students. She informed the approximately 30 guests that the same sort of informal gatherings had been held more than 100 years ago for the same purpose of drawing the college and community together. Dr. Greenwood chose Mr. Homer Springer of the Ixmgwood Art Department to organize the Fireside Chats. For the first meeting. Mr. Springer chose Dr. James Jordan of the Anthropology-Sociology Department to present a slide presentation on the Ixmgwood College Summer Field School in Archeology and the three digs he has conducted over the last two years. Dr. Jordan began his discussion by explaining that archeology is "the study of prehistoric human societies through the material artifacts excavated from their living sites." According to Dr. Jordan, "the purpose of archeology is to make things speak that seem not lo be able to. Archeologists are interested in the relationships between artifacts — the objects man makes — and behavior." They are trying to "reach into the very minds of the people who made the artifacts." The slide presentation began
by projecting the audience back in time by about 100 to 200 years with slides taken at the Hampden-Sydney College slave cabin site. One of the first discoveries was that of empty Bromo Seltzer and Celery Caffeine Salt bottles. The fact was mentioned that, in combination, these two compounds can produce a high comparable to some of today's drugs. An empty laudanum bottle was also found, prompting several tongue-in-cheek comments from the audience on just who had been using these high-producing drugs, the slaves or the H-SC president of that day. The slave cabin just happens to stand behind Middlecourt, the residence of the H-SC president. Two, even more significant discoveries were imparted to the audience; one was the presence of arrowheads in the cabin, and the other was the presence of VMI cadet buttons worn at the time of the Civil War. The question was raised over the arrowheads about whether Indians and slaves may have been congregating together in the cabin around 1829. The possibility also exists that a slave had simply picked up the arrowheads in the fields. No real explanations were offered concerning the VMI cadet buttons; that question still remains a mystery. Besides the slave cabin, the Field School tried to find the original buildings of H-SC based on studies of insurance policies of 1776 and other documents. A site was excavated based on the findings of these studies and the workers immediately hit an area
thought to be the original president's kitchen. This conclusion was reached based on finds of broken crockery and other items and comparison with dimensions listed in the original documents. Of great interest were 34 day pipe stems found in the site. These stems presented a problem that is still unresolved. According to Dr. Jordan, these pipe stems were hand-bored using a technique that had evolved over a period of many years and which allowed smaller and smaller Hnloc «r» be bored. A
classification system has been developed to date the stems based on the size of the hole. Each size hole covered a time span of about 50 years. The pipe stems found at H-SC were dated at about 1725 using this dating system. Dr. Jordan further explained that it would be virtually impossible for stems in use to last that long because of their fragility. Therefore, the problem posed is whether or not the date entered in the H-SC records is incorrect for that of the original buildings. The possibility
of delving further into this site at a later date was mentioned. Until then at least, the question of the pipe stems will remain unresolved. The next set of slides took us back 1000 years in time to the Smith-Taylor Mound Site located in Prince Edward County across from the Southside Community Hospital. This excavation site was determined lo be of the Mississippian Mound Type consisting of three pyramids with flat tops used by settled, (Continued on Page 8

Catch That Oktoberfest Spirit By BRENDA COLEMAN Oktoberfest 1981 is in full swing with reds, greens, blues, along with many campus groups and organizations, all working together to successfully pull off Ixwigwood's biggest fall week end. Preparations for this Oktoberfest began early last semester and the work will continue up until the very last hours before the big week end of October 23-25. Geist, Longwood's top leadership honorary, sponsors this annual event. The Geist members have already worked out a complex program of events and locations to accomodate the Oktoberfest festivities. They have tried to coordinate all the planned activities into one large, fun-filled week end for students,
parents, faculty members, and friends alike. Already chosen and hard at work are the 22 blue and white Klowns, 8 ushers and 3 meisters. These individuals spread the enthusiasm and blue and white spirit symbolic of Oktoberfest and were tapped at Geist's Oktoberfest tapping on Sept. 10. The ushers who will perform traditional German dances are Tom Gonzales and Missy Wagner (freshmen); Todd Bashum and I-eigh Ann Goddin (sophomores); Brenda Jenkins and John Todd (juniors); Karen "Bird" Kilmer and Katrina Harlow (seniors). The spirited meisters who will preside over the festivities of the weekend are Mittenmeister Mary Mary Yates, Festmeister Michelle Ixewis, and Geistmeister Dennis Southers.
And who can forget those 22 beautiful, bouncy knowns? This year's colorful bunch will perform gymnastic stunts, mimes, and attempt to build Squash, the famous Klown pyramid, in addition to entertaining and delighting all at Oktoberfest. Our Klowns for this year are Mitzi Mason, Kathy Klebert, Jo Jacobs, Sharon Payne, Debbie Mihm, Anne Dempsey, Andrea Simmons, Vicki Nesbitt, Julie Jones, Pam Stanley, Penny I^udermilk, Sara Kengstorf, Patty Carey, Ellyn Friedsam, Lynley Dous, Brenda Barkley, Amy Campbell, Beth Wanamaker, Ann Masi, Tommy Schmelter, Karen Dougherty, and Vicki Beasley. But these aren't the only people involved in Oktoberfest. The color classes have already been
hard at work writing their color skits and having tryouts and rehearsals. Each individual class and participating organization also has a booth on the Midway that will sell items as a moneymaking project. The classes participate in color rush, a 5event athletic contest between the Reds and Greens. In addition, the freshmen and sophomores participate in the annual Paint Battle, the first event of the Oktoberfest week that kicks off the color competition. The color class skits will be performed both Friday and Saturday nights, with judging taking place on Saturday. The skits are the most important part of the weekend's color competition. Much hard work must be put into the writing, directing, costumes, music, and
dancing in these skits in order for them to be both entertaining as well as successful. Other events planned for the week end include the alumni CHI walk, the traditional cake cutting, the Biergarten, Festhouse, athletic games, and various SUN events. Special effort is put into the preparation of the Oktoberfest week end in order to appeal to people of all ages. The variety of events this year range from skits to a moonwalk to paint battle. Oktoberfest is for everyone — plan to participate and catch that Oktoberfest spirit !!! If anyone has any questions or views on Oktoberfest, please contact Betty Ixw Smith, Geist ("hair-man of Oktoberfest, 2-8307, Box 837, 328 Wheeler or any member of Geist.

This basket includes items, other than food, which the average consumer normally purchases. The local trivia basket survey is the only one of its kind in the stale. Trivia basket items which have increased in price since May are as follows: Marlboro cigarettes (+4.63 per cent), Arrid deodorant (+12.63 per cent), (I.E. light bulbs (+1.37 percent),

Love For Love
Market Survey Continues The first local market basket survey of the 1981-82 year, conducted by the Economic Seminar Class at IiOngwood College, revealed a pleasant surprise for all. Ix)cal food prices dropped an unexpected 3.8 per cent over the past four months. The food basket cost $60.85 this month, compared to a cost of $63.28 in May. Dr. Anthony Cristo, director of the survey project, states that the cost reductions in Farmville are stores were generally in line with national and state trends, but the percentage of declind locally was much greater than expected. The table below gives a comparison of market basket figures in the four areas of Virginia which are surveyed:
events: the 50-meter butterfly, 100 meter freestyle, 400 meter distance freestyle and the 100meter backstroke. Debra received three second place silver medals, and a third place

actors in need of a guiding force. "This has been the best group to work with, "Sherry states about her job so far. "We have some very new and inexperienced actors who are all learning to work together as a group. They "flow" together — I can't think of a better term than that. All these people are growing together through this show. Each day of rehearsal shows more maturity on everyone's part. Sure, every show has its problems and I am sure we will have some too. But these guys are pulling closer together to make this show a success — they want that badly." Sherry noted that quite a few freshmen tried out for I^ove for Love and got parts in the production. "It is so neat watching all the new people improve as each day goes by. The presence of George Hughes and Frank Creasy (veteran Longwood Players' actors) makes a lot of difference.

Audience Enjoys "Sound & Silence" ByKURTCOFFIELD Mellow rock ballads, mimes and a good time were all to be had in .Unman Auditorium when Livingston Taylor and Trent Arterberry performed to the enthusiastic Longwood crowd on
September 17, in their show entitled "Sound and Silence." Trent Arterberry, performing first, showed his expertise as he pantomimed skits of a cowboy in a bar, a father babysitting, and dramatic impersonation of war.
His final act was titled "disjointed" and Trent portrayed a lost soul who becomes loyal to the smokable cannabis plant. The crowd was thoroughly amused by his mimicry. After a short intermission the crowd was primed for the evenings main attraction. Livingston Taylor walked on stage dressed in formal attire and immediately informed the audience that he was removing his tie. After this pressurerelieving-move he promptly strung and such mellow tunes as "Dance With Me," and -First Time Love." He then showed his versatility and strummed humorous ballads about the familiar Jacque Cousteau and the Soviet Union. Taylor in the summer of 1981 released an album titled Mans Best Friend and sang numerous cuts during Thursday's show. Some of the most recognized and received songs were "Carolina Day", Sunshine Girl" and "Pajamas On." Throughout the show Livingston, brother of James,
played three different instruments, guitar, piano and banjo. Trent Arterberry and Livingston Taylor put on a well performed show Thursday night
and delighted the few in attendance. A gentle blend of soft rock and mimicry were just the right mixture of successful "Sound and Silence."

Link Lynx to Success Bv TRACY RICE S-U-N's presentation of the musical group LYNX held on Wednesday night in the ABC rooms was a tremendous success. To an almost capacity crowd, the versatile group performed original numbers as well as a varied collection of popular favorites. The first of three sets consisted of hits such as " Amie" and "Two Lane Highway" by Pure Prairie League, "Danny's Song" by lx)ggins & Messina, "Peaceful Easy Feeling" by the Eagles, and a varied collection of their predominantly Southern-style rocking. After a short break, the five member band got the crowd rolling with choice songs including "Reelin' the Years" by Steely Dan,' "Legend" by Poco, "I Know a Little" by Lynrd Skynrd, "One Way Out" by the
Allman Brothers, "Cocaine" by Eric Clapton, "Lyin' Eyes" and "James Dean" by the Eagles. Such songs as "Red Neck Mother" and "Flat Tire" got the audience stomping and flat footing. Despite the exhausted supply of cold Budweiser, the third and final set was a fitting climax to a "kickass" show. The tunes included "Alabama Get Away" by the Grateful Dead, "Hold on Ixwsely" by 38-Special, "Sweet Home Alabama" by Lynrd Skynrd and "Green Grass" by the Outlaws. The well-received encore was an original entitled "She's Been Foolin' Me" featuring the key boardist, Jimmy Jones. The other band members of LYNX included Tom Jones on lead guitar, Vernon Martin, acoustic guitar, Rick Price, bass guitar and Randy Caffee on drums.

Dear Editor, It seems that the same old crowd of Crusaders are at it again at Longwood. This time the target is ARA Slater, rather than Henry Willet. This group thrives not on what the students know, but what they have heard. Now, I think it's fine to joke about the food in the dining hall, because it relaxes some of the academic tension and gives the student a common subject to discuss with the rest of the students. But the joke has gotten out of hand and I think someone should stand up and tell the fame seekers who penned this petition where it's at. I've been there. I have waited on tables for three years now and I think that I can appreciate the improvements that have been made in the dining hall. For one, look at the nice Ice Cream Machines that we have now. We didn't used to have them, did we? We'd be upset if they took them away, wouldn't we? For another, look at the present drink variety. We never used to have those kice Kool-aid fountains or tea at every meal. For another, look at the innovation made last year — opening the downstairs dining hall up during lunch for people who would rather have sandwiches than whatever is being served upstairs. Also, there is milk downstairs now, so that should stifle any complaints about no variety of drinks there. Finally, in case you haven't
noticed, we have Sundaes every Wednesday night now. I don't see too many people walking away from that. Really, it makes me burning mad to see the number of students, particularly upperclassmen and dining hall workers who have witnessed these vast improvements. True, the food could sometimes get a little better, but the students should take into account what they eat when they are at home. No, they don't sit down to three hot meals a day, rather, they eat whatever they can find. Whoever made out that neat little petition failed to take into account that a choice of two or three main course items is offered at each meal. In other words, if you don't like the veal, don't gripe. (Incidentally, when we have veal, I am sent back for more of it than the alternate items.) But Mr. Pronesti deserves a lot (Continued on Page 8)

There is little time for scholastics, sports, much less a boyfriend. Concentration is on ihe rushees. I^ate night voting, wondering which way the rushees will walk, and wearing sorority clothes constantly, begins to take its toll on each of the members. The fact that a sorority can take a complete turnaround with one pledge class only increases the tension. Each sorority on Longwood Campus is different, just as every individual is different. Each person is an important part of the group and there is a place for everyone. Let us remember that we are unified as Greeks, each striving to be the best we can become. Rivalry is expected and competition is healthy, but let all remember to keep it in prospective.

The article is well written, but there are two things I would like to clarify. Dr. William Peele is responsible for the enforcement of the Rehabilitation Act, Section 504.

What's Best? By KATHIAGNEW Rush is an exciting and busy time of the year. The preparation is a long process, with many greeks working together to make the event a success. Many hours are spent practicing songs and skits. Grey skirts, green shirts, and red dresses are just a few of the outfits worn to symbolize each sorority. Greek letters are seen throughout the campus. Each sorority is put in the same awkward position of proving they are the best. They may base it on having the prettiest girls, being the most unified group or having the most athletes. Whatever the case, the object is the same, strive for quota and show the rushees that your sorority is the best. Unfortunately this is a verydifficult and tense period as well.

an experience to remember." Surprisingly the food wasn't as good as they'd expected it to be. Kelly Jones related an interesting story, "One night, while we were in Florence, some friends we had met took us to Michelangelo's point which -vQrlooks Florence and kept liking about a great new fruit tney'u discovered. They described it as really sweet and pink on the inside." Naturally we asked tc as f some of this exotic fruit and wht n they bought some for us to eat, we thought we'd die laughing — it was watermelon. Although they had no serious problems they did run into a number of inconveniences.

NEW FACULTY IN BRIEF By BILL BRENT
The Top 40 Crisis. Parti First order of business today is to clue you in on some upcoming concerts. In case you haven't heard the Ozark Mountain Daredevils will be among us October 25 in Jarman, and I. B. Dent promises lo announce ticket sale dates as soon as the final contract is signed. (These things are like football games, folks, you never know the outcome until the final gun,) Foreigner will also be appearing October 25 but at Capital Centre in faraway I-andover, Maryland. David Bowkie, The Stones, a reborn Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, Simon and Garfunkel, The Who and Pink Floyd have all announced upcoming concert dates in the Big Apple. A tantalizing prospect for the winter season of tours, though it is too early to tell which ones will get near us (the closest the Stones will get is Philadelphia), so Rockcorner will do its best to keep you posted. One final note, Paul McCartney and Michael _ Jackson have co-written about five tunes which will appear on each one's newest disc ... should prove interesting, if not good music. Now that's out of the way, onto this week's column. For years, the major record companies used the "Top 40" as their main source of determining album sales. The theory is simple: if they like one song, they'll buy the album (they being John Q. Public). For years this formula worked beautifully and until the early 1970's the record companies could determine album sales from how well their singles did. So how come the record companies lost one-half billion dollars in sales from 1979 to 1980? How is it that Top 40 listeners are turning off?
The answer to Top 40's problems is multi-faceted, but a few fundamental problems can be easily cited, the most basic one being the music itself. Back in the 1960's and early 1970's the Top 40 contained a variety of music. On any given week there was an incredibly diverse and integrated Top Ten. Groups as diverse as Simon and Garfunkel, I,ead Zeppelin, The Supremes, The Stones, Gordon Lightfoot and the Allman Brothers could be found there. From country to heavy metal, Motown Sound to folk, Teenyboppers to Art Rockers — it was all big and as a result it was fresh and reached a wide audience. Top 40 stations usually had a play list of over thirty current hits, nothing was i usually) overplayed and Top 40 ratings were always in a constant state of motion. So what went wrong? Somewhere in the years 1972-74 the record companies started to opt for a more commercial approach, the principles being (1) sell through repetition; (2) stop taking chances on new artists and go with "safe" acts; (3) keep it simple and, (4) cut the variety of music to a simple, marketable product. David Lee Roth of (the group) Van Halen probably said it best: "The idea is lo keep it as simplistic, as innocent, as unassuming and as stupid as possible." Any business major can give yor. a textbook reason for the move, if a corporation can cut its peripheral non-moneymakers and consolidate them into one huge success they will get more return on investment. Thus, so the story, is told, disco was born. What the record moguls failed to realize was the inherent diaster in their plan.
Commercials, as we all know, are aimed at a twelve-year-old's mentality, and twelve and fourteen-year-olds loved disco. Now disco may be (barely) tolerable on the dance floor, but not as many people are going to buy it for listening (especially at $6.98-$8.98 per disc). So in the final analysis, the record companies alienated those people who have the money for albums, especially the over 22 crowd. Playlists as well were cut back, sometimes in half. You are lucky to find a Top 40 station now that has a current playlist of over 15 or 20 tunes. The result is that you have overkill of certain records (the most recent example being "Endless Love"). This trend discourages even more buyers. It sends white listeners into the album-rock stations and black listeners to militantly black stations. Variety has gone the way of the Dusenberg. The most basic problem is the music. Since variety is now anathema to Top 40 more middle of the road (MOR) music has hit. MOR is slush, at best it is elevated Muzak (excuse the pun). Ninety-nine per cent of the tunes out on Top 40 are forgettable from a musical standpoint — mediocrity is now the vanguard. Faceless artists now come and go all selling basically the same product. The air is stale and fresh air doesn't seem to make it through the stagnation. It gets choked. Melody is now simple (as opposed to simplistic), adventure is now eliminated and the variety and fun are gone. The lyrics, when not overtly sexual, tend to be written on a sixth-grade level. The thrill is gone from Top 40.

including co-captain and senior Julie Petefish iStanley i, and junior co-captain Kathy Gunning 'Severn, MD). Other veterans include: sophomores Jeannie Breckenridge (New York, NY), Bonnie Lipscomb (Brookneal) and juniors Joyce Pool iBrookneal) and Elaine Olay (Patchogue, NY). Senior Frannie

VCU Ties Longwood on Penalty Kick
rnoto by Joe Johnson
Longwood's 2-2 overtime tie with VCU Saturday afternoon has to rate as at least a moral victory for the lancers, who had lost to the Rams 2-0 in the longwood Invitational a week earlier. Leading 2-1 late in the game, Ixmgwood had to settle for the tie when VCU scored on a penalty kick with 26 seconds left. Neither team scored in two 10-minute overtime periods. Coming on the heels of VCU's 11 tie with Virginia Thursday, longwood's effort in Saturday's rematch with the Rams pleased Coach Rich Posipanko. "We played well enough to win and we should have won," said the coach. "We made a mistake
at the end and they (VCU) converted the penalty kick to tie us." Steve Kern (Warminster, PA) tied the game 1-1 with a header at about the 10-minute mark and Bill Foster (Newport News) booted in a shot with 2:40 left to put longwood on top. In the penalty area, VCU's Mike Montiero was fouled and the Rams tied it with a penalty kick just seconds away from the final whistle. Longwood's standout midfielder Dana Gregg (Cincinnati, OH) sat out the entire game with an injury, but cousin Darryl Case (Cincinnati, OH) filled in well, drawing praise
from Posipanko. Forward Gus Leal (Rockville, MD) was ejected early in the first overtime period, but the I.ancers held on for the tie despite having just 10 men on the field to VCU's 11. Posipanko praised midfielder Joe Parker i Hatboro, PA) for his play in the contest. "Joe was all over the field," said the coach. "It was one of his best games ever. Randy Neimeyer (Monlrose, AD also played well filling in for Darryl." Longwood hosts Maryville Thursday at 4:00 on First Ave. Field and takes on Roanoke Friday night at 7:00 on Her Field.

Marshall Wins Golf Tournament By MIKE LYNCH In golf, there are no excuses. The sun, the weather, the course and other factors cannot be used as reasons for poor performance, simply because every other competitor has to play under exactly the same conditions. It is because of this fact that the longwood I,ady lancers golf team can only blame their disappointing fifth place in the fifth annual Longwood Invitational Tournament at the Longwood golf course on themselves. It is for the same reason that Marshall University, winners of the tournament for the third straight time, can be proud of themselves for displaying some excellent golf. After a first round total of 307, Marshall was ahead to stay. Not '

only did they eventually finish the tournament with a very comfortable 31 stroke advantage, but no team could even beat them on any one day, although Penn State tied them once during their worst day of play. All five of Marshall's players finished in the top fifteen, individually, with three making the top five. While Marshall stormed off to an early lead, the other teams produced an exciting and competitive race for second place honors. Taking second place in such a prestigious event as this would still be a very noteworthy achievement. In impressive fashion, Penn State University, Longwood, the University of North Carolina at Wilmington and William and Mary College, finished the first round with team RESULTS •313-312-932 ■313-325-963 -321-325-973 -338-327-993 -333-338-997 -344-347-103:
scores of 325, 326, 327 and 328 respectively. James Madison University, looking a little outclassed by the strong field, finished the first round with a 341. The second round showed much more aberrant scores as Ixmgwood slipped a ni ch in the standings to fourth, snooting a deplorable 333. It could have been even worse, had not Lanie Gerken shot an 82 to follow up Robin Andrews' 80. Penn State took a firm grasp of second place shooting 313 for the day in much improved fashion from the previous day. Also improved was UNC-Wilmington with a 321 that put them in third place.

Golfers 9th In VMI-W&L Tournament From Sports Info Ixjngwood's men's golf team, in its first of three fall tournaments, slipped from seventh to ninth in the final round of the Washington & Lee-VMI Invitational at I^xington Country Club Sunday afternoon. Virginia won the title in a field of 18 teams with rounds of 292-297 for a 589. I^ngwood's 310-326-636 was good for ninth, ahead of such teams as VMI and HampdenSydney. Senior Tim White (Richmond) had an opening round 73 but
slipped to an 82 the second day for a 155. Other longwood scores included: Bryant Reese (South Hill) 77-83-160; Rick Currier (Milton, PA) 77-80-157; Glen Bugg (Chase City) 93-89-172 and Stan Edwards (Bedford) 84-81165.

The lancers will host Lynchburg, Mary Washington, HampdenSydney, Ferrum and Newport News October 23 in a one-day match at Ix>ngwood Golf Course.
New Volleyball Coach By RONNIE BROWN Joyce Mascaro Phillips, a recent Temple University graduate and former varsity cheerleader, has been named the women's volleyball coach at I/ongwood, according to interim Athletic Director Carolyn Hodges. A native of Philadelphia who now lives in Dillwyn, Phillips received her B.S. in Health and Physical Education from Temple last May after attending Mount Saint Joseph Academy in Flourtown, PA.
She has been a participant in athletics as a cheerleader at Mount Saint Joseph Academy for two years and later as a cheerleader at Temple, for four years. Two of these years she was the varsity captain. Phillips replaces Nanette Fisher, who gave up her coaching duties to take the post as the women's assistant basketball coach. The daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Mascaro, Joyce is married to James Phillips of Dillwyn.
In Memorium "Lisa Winkler always kept everybody going ... she had great team spirit with a good outlook on things at all times," said Ms. Beth Budd, the longwood gymnastics coach. Lisa Winkler, daughter of Ray and Eve Winkler, was killed in an automobile accident this past summer on August 8, 1981. She was a rising junior at longwood and active member of the longwood gymnastics team. Lisa attended Garfield High School in Woodbridge, Va., where she and fellow teammates won the 1977 AAA State Championship
in gymnastics. A hometown gymnastics club will be collecting money to donate a trophy in honor of Iisa to be given to the winner of the Division II State Champion. This will be a travelling trophy that will be passed on to every winning team. IxHigwood's gymnastic team is going to place a plaque in the I^ancer Showcase in dedication to Lisa. They are also going to dedicate their first meet of the season to her "enthusiastic team spirit."

Evidence was also found of an area of the site where nets may have been erected to herd animals into for slaughter to further corroborate the use of this site.

The first film of the 1981 Series is "4-Butte-l: How Stone Tools Were Made by Prehistoric Hunters." "4-Butte-l", a title derived from the traditional sitenumbering system of American archeology, is a film study of a group of college students, under the supervision of an archeologist, excavating the buried remains of a Maidu Indian village in California. Then the focus shifts to stone tool manufacturing techniques as P'rancois Bordes, Director of the Laboratory of Prehistory, University of Bordeaux, demonstrates how stone blades were probably made by direct percussion and by the punch technique and Don Crabtree, an expert in lithic technology, demonstrates various methods of manufacturing tools by pressure flaking techniques. In a dramatic conclusion, the film demonstrates that the Valley of Mexico blade made from obsidian has the sharpest cutting edge man has ever been able to devise. Dr. James William Jordan, Associate Professor of Anthropology and Director of the Ixmgwood Summer Field School in Archeology, will provide a brief introduction to the film. All films in the Anthropology Film Series are free and open to the public.
