Two archaeologies? Costly signaling and human behavioral ecology in archaeology (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Lisa Nagaoka.

Archaeological research using human behavioral ecology (HBE) models has significantly increased over the past decade both in number and scope. Originally most HBE research was relatively narrow, focusing on prey choice, diet breadth, and resource depression. Since then, it has expanded into areas beyond examining efficiency of foraging strategies. Driven mainly by anthropological and ethnoarchaeological research, these studies have investigated the influence of factors such as age, gender,...


Two Long-Term Tom Dillehay Projects: Monte Verde, Zana, and the Processes of Archaeological Debate and Criticism (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Jack Rossen.

This is an abstract from the "Dedication, Collaboration, and Vision, Part I: Papers in Honor of Tom D. Dillehay" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The long-term projects of Tom Dillehay led the discipline through quagmires of criticism that exemplify the processes of paradigm freeze and thaw. His innovative archaeology drew criticism both responsible and irresponsible. It was a prolonged and messy process, but the scientific debate played out as...


Understanding heterarchy: Landscape and community in the northern Calchaquí Valley, Argentina (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Elizabeth DeMarrais.

This presentation explores landscapes of heterarchy, investigating the ways that past peoples inhabited a south Andean landscape. In the northern Calchaquí Valley of Argentina, before the Inkas, power relations were predominantly decentralized and spatially extensive. As a consequence, lived experience, the built environment, and the wider landscape both constituted and reproduced a distinctive social order and cultural logic. Using data from regional survey, I argue first for a habitus that...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Audrey J Horning. Stephen Mrozowski.

This is an abstract from the "Exploring the Recent Past" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Over the past two decades, the practice of historical archaeology has expanded not only geographically, but also thematically and methodologically.

The Uses of Experiment: Studies in the Natural Sciences (1989)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Uploaded by: adam brin

Experiment is widely regarded as the most distinctive feature of natural science and essential to the way scientists find out about the world. Yet there has been little study of the way scientists actually make and use experiments. The Uses of Experiment fills this gap in our knowledge about how science is practised. Presenting 14 original case studies of important and often famous experiments, the book asks the questions: What tools do experimenters use? How do scientists argue from...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Valerie Bondura.

This is an abstract from the "Chicanx Archaeology" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

The African Burial Ground Project carried forward specific ideas of that encounter, joined with the activist scholarship and...


Waist Deep in the Big Data: How the Digital Index of North American Archaeology (DINAA) Implements Ontological and Loosely Coupled Organization around the Construct of the Archaeological Site (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Joshua J. Wells.

Archaeology’s disciplinary engagement with big data is confounded by the variety of information types recorded, variability of data due to differential preservation of materials and theoretical orientations of observers, and complexity of archaeological concepts daring to be caged in explicit digital expressions. The Digital Index of North American Archaeology (DINAA) is a linked open data hub, centered around the theoretically, practically, and interpretively fraught definition of...
