Thermal Analysis as a Means to Understand Prehistoric Heat Treatment and Performance Differences in Tool Stone (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only John Dudgeon. Charles Speer. Beau Craner. Rebecca Hazard.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Thermal analysis (TGA/DTA/STA) has seen sporadic use as an archaeometric technique. Recent papers on archaeological mortars, plasters, ceramic pigments, and paints have sought to understand recipes or mineralogical components by thermal decomposition, especially where traditional chemical analysis by mass spectrometry is limited due to the multiple forms a...

Thirty Years On, Considering Kelly’s 1988 "Three Sides of A Biface", and Why It Matters for Great Basin Archaeology (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Geoffrey Cunnar. Edward Stoner.

We argue that it is time to reconsider the use of the term biface in Great Basin archaeology and implement more heuristic terms in its place. In most instances, there is only one role or "one side of a biface" and that was to become a projectile point. It is time we recognize bifaces as such and acknowledge that preform morphology can be an indicator of temporal association and of social agents including children. Stage classification alone is limiting in terms of allowing us to broaden our...

The “Three Sides” of the Emblematic Early Azilian Blades with Flat Retouch along the Atlantic Façade (2024)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Nicolas Naudinot. Mathieu Langlais. Jérémie Jacquier. Lynden Cooper.

This is an abstract from the "Three Sides of a Career: Papers in Honor of Robert L. Kelly" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Recent research allowed us to draw a better picture of the period around 14,000 cal BP, the theatre of a shift between Magdalenian and Azilian technical concepts. The rhythm of this changing is still difficult to describe precisely because of a radiocarbon plateau and the scarcity of Early Azilian (EA) sites excavated in good...

This is an abstract from the "Checking the Pulse: Current Research in Oaxaca Part I" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Se presenta la primer tipología de artefactos líticos de Cerro Jazmín, Oaxaca. Identificamos una industria lítica basada en silex, con artefactos especializados. Logramos identificar las etapas del proceso de talla que se llevaban a cabo en el sitio. Se propone que la industria lítica para el periodo más temprano presenta menos...

To Collect or Not to Collect: That is the Question ...But Where is the Point? (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Linda Neff. Ronald Krug. Peter Pilles.

This is an abstract from the "To Curate or Not to Curate: Surprises, Remorse, and Archaeological Grey Area" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Many land managing agencies have policies that forbid the collection of artifacts during archaeological survey and, even under controlled situations, as determined to be an "Adverse Effect" under Section 106 compliance interpretations. The main rationale is that removal destroys the contextual information of...

To What Extent Is the Concept of Convergence Applicable to Lithic Technology: An Overview (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Aylar Abdolahzadeh.

This is an abstract from the "Establishing the Science of Paleolithic Archaeology: The Legacy of Harold Dibble (1951–2018) Part I" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. For many Paleolithic archaeologists, it is important to determine whether similar characteristics of lithic artifacts and/or assemblages resulted from convergent evolution because this may help us better understand the evolutionary developments of stone artifact technologies from H....

Tool Fragments from the Late Lower Paleolithic of Tabun Cave, Israel (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Michael Bisson.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Acheulo-Yabrudian (A-Y) is the final manifestation of the Lower Paleolithic of the Levant. This paper reports on numerous A-Y tool fragments discovered among the small finds collected during the Jelinek excavation of Tabun Cave, Israel. Tabun is the longest stratified Paleolithic sequence in the Eastern Mediterranean and includes all three facies of the...

Tools of the Trade: An Analysis of Lithic Biface Variability in South Central Ontario (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Darci Clayton.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This presentation will discuss the results and conclusions of my Masters thesis research, which addresses cultural interaction patterns and corresponding lithic hafted biface manufacturing traditions in the south-central portion of Ontario. It focuses on the analysis of morphometric and raw material variability in lithic hafted bifaces from the Middle Archaic...

Toolstone Acquisition in the Interior of California’s South-Central Coast: Raw Material Extraction in the Mid- to Late Holocene (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Ryan Brady. Julie Royer. Loukas Barton. Micah Hale. Brad Comeau.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The use of local vs. nonlocal toolstone sources can reveal much about past hunter-gatherer behavior. Toolstone-acquisition-related decisions reflect past people’s settlement strategy—“mapping on” or logistically exploiting a stone resource, raw material quality, and environmental productivity. Our sample of nine sites is an optimal geographic context...

Toward a Bayesian Epistemology of Anthropology and Archaeology (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Marcus Hamilton.

This is an abstract from the "The Expanding Bayesian Revolution in Archaeology" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. To date, the “Bayesian Revolution” in archaeology has focused primarily on statistical inference: the move from hypothesis testing to credence building. Bayesian thinking extends far beyond the practicalities of statistical inference. Bayesian theory is about epistemology; it describes how we acquire knowledge of the world by reducing the...

Toward standardization of lithic use-wear identification in conjunction with technological organization and raw material variability (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Kaoru Akoshima.

The paper examines theoretical problems concerning characteristics of lithic micro-wear traces in the Paleolithic. Use-wear studies already experienced 40 years of research since the discovery of micro-polish varieties which reflect worked materials with wide applications to site structure analysis. However, global standardization of identification criteria still needs comparative efforts, especially on raw material variability and behavioral diversity among regional settlement and subsistence...

Tracing Paleoamerican adaptations to South American Tropics: new data from lithics analyses in Brazil (2024)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Marina González-Varas. Antonio Pérez-Balarezo.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Recent archaeological findings in the neotropical region of South America are central to understanding the early adaptations of Paleoamerican populations to diverse ecosystems, especially tropical areas, between 14,000 and 9,000 BP — a period marked by significant paleoenvironmental and paleoclimatic shifts. This study focuses on the critical role of...

Tracing Paleoindian Projectile Point Diversity in the American Southeast (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Ashley Smallwood. Thomas Jennings. Charlotte Pevny.

Paleoindian projectile points occur in high incidences in the American Southeast, and compared to other regions in the East, the Southeast has the greatest projectile point diversity. One effective way to understand this diversity is by tracking broad-scale morphological variation in suites of point traits to build cultural lineages. In this paper, we take a more trait-specific approach. We trace changes in projectile point design to understand the evolution of specific point attributes that...
