It shows clear ties to the Oneota tradition of the upper Midwest. Population movement best explains the presence of this Oneota complex in the Plains. Interpretations of seasonal mobility or migration are evaluated through analysis of White Rock phase assemblages. Evidence for gardening and lithic material use patterns suggest permanent or year-round occupation of the central Plains resulting from the Oneota migration.en-USWhite Rock phaseOneotaLate PrehistoricMigrationLithic raw materialsLate Prehistoric Oneota population movement into the central PlainsArticle (publisher version)
