Alibates and Antelope Creek: stone, farming, and village connections

Reviewed community and place names are preserved where supported; no otherwise unknown ancient self-designation is invented.

NPS describes Alibates stone as an important worked resource; finding similar material elsewhere is not a map of sovereign territory. The Antelope Creek account combines settled houses, cultivated foods and hunting rather than a farming-versus-hunting opposition.

Quarry, production, and village-network context Long stone-use background; Antelope Creek contexts approximately 1150–1450 CE Lithic procurement evidence, architecture, foodways interpretation and heritage management Amarillo, Texas, United States (orientation only): approximate public-town or distant institutional orientation, not an excavation, burial, sacred-site, private compound or vulnerable-deposit location; never a territorial, ethnic, linguistic, cultural, political, religious, sovereignty, hunting, grazing, farming, fishing, water-rights or route boundary. The orientation may be far from the archaeological context. No access, collecting, hunting or travel permission is implied.
Resumen

Praderas, hogares, aldeas y evidencias

Conexiones entre praderas, ríos, piedemontes y regiones

Amarillo, Texas, United States is a modern orientation, not an ancient capital or boundary. Stone production, exchange and farming villages do not prove one centralized Antelope Creek nation or total control of every connection.

Organización política y escala comunitaria

Stone production, exchange and farming villages do not prove one centralized Antelope Creek nation or total control of every connection. Artifact distribution does not reveal fixed trade routes or ethnic borders; Antelope Creek is a material classification, and modern interpretation is not surviving ancient architecture.

Transformación posterior, patrimonio vivo y recepción moderna

Living communities and heritage institutions retain their own authority; this atlas cannot establish identity, ancestry, descent, recognition or membership. Neither stone sources nor house forms identify every language or establish modern membership. Events after 1800 CE and modern research, reconstruction and stewardship are dated separately from the main archaeological context.

Connected material NPS describes Alibates stone as an important worked resource; finding similar material elsewhere is not a map of sovereign territory.

Modern interpretation The 2015 plan distinguishes protected archaeological resources and proposed interpretation around an Antelope Creek-style dwelling; a plan is not proof that every proposal was completed.
