The timing of the onset of intensive small seed use is of interest as it suggests a broadening of diets by early peoples and has implications for climatic change. Here we review both direct and indirect evidences of small seed use at critical sites in the Great Basin and Colorado Plateau. This information combined with new data from North Creek Shelter in the Escalante Valley of southern Utah suggests this shift occurred by 9,000 years ago. RESUMEN Semillas pequeñas eran parte importante de la dieta durante el periodo arcaico en el oeste árido de Norte América. La época en la que empezó el uso intenso de semillas pequeñas es de interés porque infi ere una expansión en la dieta de los primeros habitantes, y tiene implicaciones de cambio climático. Aquí, examinamos evidencias directas e indirectas del uso de semillas pequeñas en sitios importantes del Great Basin y el Colorado Plateau. Esta información junto con datos del North Creek Shelter en el Valle de Escalante del sur de Utah, indica que esta expansión ocurrió hace 9,000 años.

The origin of domesticated turkeys, however, remains an unanswered question especially given the absence of turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) in early and middle Holocene contexts prior to the arrival of maize agriculture. This paper reports turkey remains from very early Holocene deposits in North Creek Shelter in southern Utah and reviews extant literature for early turkey remains in the Southwest. These
