For the past 13,000 years indians in the north american great plains hunted bison (bison bison and b. antiquus) in large communally organized drive operations. Around 40 jump kill sites were found in the great plains, indicating that directing buffalo herds towards a cliff remained a hunting method. however, it is important to mention the hunting technology which was increasingly used to facilitate this activity.
