Clovis point allometry, modularity, and integration: Exploring shape variation due to tool use with landmark-based geometric morphometrics
Landmark-based geometric morphometrics (LGM) is most often used in archaeology to characterize and differentiate groups of artifacts, but it can be used for much more. We demonstrate LGM’s power to uncover new insights by exploring stone-tool allometry, modularity, and integration using a sample of...
