El Fin del Mundo is an archaeological site in Sonora, northwest Mexico, that contains a buried Clovis megafauna kill in a lowland area and concentrations of Clovis and later lithic materials scattered on the deflated surface of the surrounding uplands. The Clovis lithic assemblage from the site, identified by its technological and typological features, has been classified into three modes: bifaces, unifaces, and blades. The kill locality only contains Clovis points, whereas the assemblage from the uplands includes multiple bifaces reflecting diverse stages of the manufacture process from blank production to finished, highly reduced, and discarded broken Clovis points, numerous end scrapers, and blades and blade manufacture byproducts. This assemblage is indicative of a campsite where stone tool production and possibly other domestic tasks took place. In addition, a rhyolite outcrop near both the campsite and the kill was intensively exploited, as reflected in the high proportion of this raw material in the Clovis assemblage. Unequivocal association of the kill locality and the campsite is not confirmed; however, the configuration of the site indicates that the campsite was established in uplands near locations with water, game, and lithic resources.

来自墨西哥索诺拉州 El Fin del Mundo 的克洛维斯石工具:场地使用和地区之间的关联

El Fin del Mundo 是墨西哥西北部索诺拉的一个考古遗址,其中包含在低地地区埋藏的克洛维斯大型动物群,以及散布在周围高地瘪瘪表面的克洛维斯和后来的岩石物质的集中。现场的克洛维斯石器组合,以其技术和类型特征确定,已分为三种模式:双面、单面和刀片。杀戮地点仅包含克洛维斯点,而来自高地的组合包括多个双面,反映了制造过程的不同阶段,从坯料生产到成品、高度减少和丢弃的破碎克洛维斯点、许多末端刮刀以及刀片和刀片制造副产品。这个组合表明一个露营地,在那里进行石器生产和可能的其他国内任务。此外,营地和猎物附近的流纹岩露头被密集开采,这反映在克洛维斯组合中这种原材料的比例很高。杀戮地点与露营地之间的明确关联尚未得到证实;然而,该地点的配置表明,该营地建在靠近水源、野味和岩石资源的高地。
