Ripley P. Bullen's "A Guide to the Identification of Florida Projectile Points," remains the most important reference on Florida projectile points. The "Guide" was published in 1969 and revised in 1975. Since 1975 several works of similar content and expanded scope have been published. All still rely heavily upon and frequently reference the "Guide." This thesis considers Florida and regional research bearing on the precereamic lithic bifacial types proposed by Bullen. Utilizing calibrated radiocarbon dates a modern temporal placement is suggested for Bullen's as well as newly recoginized or proposed Florida types. Typologically, preceramic Florida types believed to share developmental relationships are grouped into seven type-clusters. / A Thesis submitted to the Department of Anthropology in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. / Spring Semester, 2006. / March 15, 2006. / Use-Wear, Seriation, Lithic Reduction Sequence, Lithic Typology, Paleoindian Period, Archaic Period, Southeastern Archaeology, Florida Archaelogy, Ripley Bullen, Experimental Archaelogy, Radiocarbon Calibration / Includes bibliographical references. / Rochelle A.
