Palisades Culture

This culture lived on terraces of the sub artic. They established their presence on these terraces at about 12,500 years BP. These Palisades Indians were relatives of the British Mountain Indian culture. This culture was known for making tools, probably used for hunting. The Palisades culture produced tools such as axes-like choppers, made from beach pebbles, flaked cutting tools, made from flint, and blade flint fragments, used for cutting hides. With these tools, the animals they probably hunted were the bison and caribou. These two animals were probably this cultures primary food and material source. They lived along the coast with house cut into the land along the shore.
