In this study, I describe the lithic reduction sequence from a series of archaeological assemblages recovered from around the west end of Lake Ontario. All these assemblages were recovered in association with variants of the Kirk Corner-notched projectile point type and so these are inferred to represent debris produced during a single technological horizon from the Early Archaic of the region. These assemblages appear to represent debris and tools discarded during manufacture and/or reworking. These types of deposits can therefore be used to analyse the technological system of manufacture.

520 $a In this study, I describe the lithic reduction sequence from a series of archaeological assemblages recovered from around the west end of Lake Ontario. All these assemblages were recovered in association with variants of the Kirk Corner-notched projectile point type and so these are inferred to represent debris produced during a single technological horizon from the Early Archaic of the region. These assemblages appear to represent debris and tools discarded during manufacture and/or reworking. These types of deposits can therefore be used to analyse the technological system of manufacture.
520 $a I hypothesise that the reduction sequence described here was an integrated system designed to meet the needs of mobile hunter-gatherers as they traversed the landscape from the Niagara Peninsula to the northeast of Lake Ontario. Attributes of this reduction sequence include the maintenance of cores and common patterns for the unidirectional detachment of flakes from both the cores and almost finished bifaces. I further argue that the detachment of flakes was done to produce tool blanks for less formal tool types that were relatively predictable in future utility; preforms ideal for transformation into a projectile point; and projectile points ideal for use as penetrating tools that were also easily maintained and resharpened. Variation in projectile points can be interpreted as resulting from these tools being produced from different trajectories of the reduction system and reworking after use.
520 $a Three additional conclusions are offered from these inferences. First, no single assemblage appears to represent the full reduction sequence. Second, while the assemblages represent a continuum of lithic reduction, all produced the same kinds of tools. Consequently, lacking evidence of task specialisation, it is argued that all represent residential relocations. Finally, I argue that some aspects of the mobility pattern of the Fluted Point Horizon appears to continue into the Corner-notched Horizon. Additional evidence of continuity with the Unfluted Lanceolate Biface Horizon suggests that the changes seen through time may have occurred without a population replacement. However, this reduction system was very much dependant upon the nature of the raw material available for use.
