Abstrakt: The following paper presents data from the excavation and analysis of materials from the Griswold site (36Er62), a transitional late Middle Woodland-early Late Woodland site located in Millcreek Township, Pennsylvania. Multiple projects were conducted at the site prior to its destruction around 2011, though the content below primarily concerns excavations by William Engelbrecht and Edinboro University in the early 1970s. Using multiple lines of evidence, the authors present settlement and subsistence models for Griswold while also integrating the data into a broader discussion of the Middle to Late Woodland transition in the Northeast. Detailed ceramic and lithic analyses are presented. In doing so, the authors highlight issues associated with the temporal resolution of formal ceramic and lithic types. Additional contributions of this paper are the presentation of novel interpretations of the function of Jack's Reef projectile points and the relationship between ceramic bossing and gripability.
