DOCUMENT Full-Text M.L. Brack.

The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) has proposed construction work along the eastern frontage road of Interstate 19 (I-19), north of Nogales, Arizona. Previous investigations identified two archaeological sites within the scope of this project: AZ EE:9:43 (ASM) and AZ EE:9:174 (ASM). When they were initially recorded, data were insufficient for a determination of eligibility for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places (National Register). Therefore, archaeological...

Rethinking Palisades in the Northeast: Evidence from the Eaton Site (2012)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Piotr Poplawski. Joshua J. Kwoka. William Engelbrecht.

Eaton is a multicomponent site located in western New York. The major component consists of an Iroquoian village dating to the mid-sixteenth century. There is a high ratio of expedient lithic tools to debitage in the area of the palisade. We explore possible explanations for this distribution and discuss the implications for the construction and maintenance of a palisade.

A Review of Cape Cod Archaeology (1957)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Ross Moffett.

Although Indian artifacts in large numbers have been found on Cape Cod, information on the circumstance and chronological order attending the original distribution of these artifacts is somewhat limited and uneven. Little evidence is available from excavations on the upper or east-west part of the Cape, save for one report dealing with a series of relatively late shell heaps. The lower or north-south portion of the peninsula, however, is fairly adequately known. This paper is based, therefore,...

A Review of Human and Natural Changes in Maya Lowlands Wetlands Over the Holocene
DOCUMENT Full-Text Tim Beach. Sheryl Luzzadder-Beach. Nicholas Dunning. John Jones. Jon Lohse. Tom Guderjan. Steve Bozarth. Sarah Millspaugh. Tripti Bhattacharya.

In the Maya Lowlands of Mexico, Belize, and Guatemala two main types of wetlands have played important roles in human history: bajos or intermittently wet environments of the upland, interior Yucatán and perennial wetlands of the coastal plains. Many of the most important Maya sites encircle the bajos, though our growing evidence for human-wetland interactions is still sparse. The deposits of these wetlands record two main eras of slope instability and wetland aggradation: the...
