The SC Paleo-Point Database: Past, Present, and Future J. Christopher Gillam, Albert C. Goodyear, and Tommy Charles Abstract: Over four decades of data collection on Paleoindian bifaces from South Carolina have been updated, re-analyzed, and georeferenced to improve the quality and research potential of the database. Improved typology, georeferencing for geographic information system (GIS) analyses, and electronic distribution to colleagues were the primary goals of this recent effort. To date, nearly 500 Paleoindian bifaces (n= 462) have been recorded in South Carolina, consisting primarily of Clovis, Redstone, and occasionally Simpson and Suwanee points. Geographic concentrations indicate that Paleoindians targeted key resources across the landscape. What is now needed is a way to foster collector-academic interaction and make the data more accessible. Imagine a website where you could input GPS or interactive map coordinates, point photographs, contact information, date and description of find, hit the SUBMIT button, and get a product for your submission! A map that you can print out at home and a web address to send your friends and colleagues to view information related to your latest discovery. A GIS-enabled website is the perfect tool for enabling real-time updates, interaction, and analyses useful to academics and collectors alike. J. Christopher Gillam J.
