The '''Post Pattern''' refers to a [[Paleo-Indian]] [[archaeological culture]] of [[Artifact (archaeology)|artifacts]] found in northwest [[California]] dating between 9,000- and 13,000 years ago. Excavation sites are around [[Clear Lake (California)|Clear Lake]] and [[Borax Lake Site|Borax Lake]]. The Post Pattern is a local manifestation of the [[Western Pluvial Lakes Tradition]].

It is believed that Post Pattern peoples were a pre-[[Hokan languages|Hokan]] group. The hypothetical entrance of peoples speaking (hypothetical) Hokan languages dates from about 6,000-8,000 years ago in what is known as the [[Lower Archaic Period]]. The Post Pattern is associated with the [[Yuki-WappoYuki–Wappo]] language family.

The pattern is named after Chester C. Post who in 1938 introduced it to the archaeological world.
