Creating Insiders and Outsiders through Language (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Dana Oswald.

Anthropologists use discourse analyses to study how language is used within cultures and across cultural boundaries as a way to distinguish between the cultural “insiders” and “outsiders.” This study investigates how language creates insiders and outsiders in archaeology. Textbooks and primary literature are used in the professionalization of students from undergraduate through doctoral programs, helping to drive the transition from novice to professional status in archaeology. Scholars within...

The Fragility of Sense: Language, Ethics, and Understanding in Deaf Nepal (WGF - Hunt Postdoctoral Fellowship) (2020)
DOCUMENT Full-Text E. Mara Green.

This resource is an application for the Hunt Postdoctoral Fellowship from the Wenner-Gren Foundation. My book, The Fragility of Sense: Language, Ethics, and Understanding in Deaf Nepal, draws on 23 months of fieldwork to explore what it means to live in a world where language cannot be taken for granted. In Nepal, roughly 5000 deaf persons - those involved in deaf schools and organizations - learn Nepali Sign Language (NSL). Most deaf persons, however, use "natural sign," an NSL term that...


German Gravemarkers and Cultural Retention (2020)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Sadie S Dasovich.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Monuments, Memory, and Commemoration" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Germans from the Palatinate region in Germany continually immigrated to various regions of the United States from the 1720s until 1910s. Particularly significant regions are Western Pensylvania, the Missouri River Valley in Central Missouri, and the Dakotas. By comparing gravestone symbology and inscriptions in these three regions, I was...

"Just the leftovers!" Pre-Christian ritual in highland Maya colonial documents (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Sergio Romero.

In this paper I will present an analysis of colonial texts in indigenous languages that describe or paraphrase pre-Hispanic ritual. I will present comparisons between the structure and poetics of such texts and those of contemporary Christian sacramental practice as attested in sixteenth and seventeenth century doctrines and catechisms. Based on the analysis of intertextuality, I will show that pre-Hispanic ritual genres became a template for the Spanish mendicant friars and their native...

Stones, shapes and speech: interpreting the origins of language from lithic variation with geometric morphometrics (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Cory Cuthbertson. Christian Hoggard.

Results from a recent experiment demonstrate that morphological standardization is an indicator of complex cultural transmission and cognition. A novel methodology integrating geometric morphometrics and Multiple Factor Analysis was employed to assess global shape variance in four experimental handaxe assemblages made by novice knappers trained under four different simulated social learning environments (emulation, imitation, silent teaching and verbal teaching). The higher the fidelity of their...


Using Neuroimaging in Archaeology to investigate Cognitive Evolution (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Georg Meyer. Natalie Uomini.

A big question in cognitive archaeology is whether complex tool-making and language co-evolved in the human lineage. There is considerable overlap in the brain structures that support complex body actions, including pantomiming and tool use, but also making music and using language. The activation of shared brain areas for separate skills is the basis of this popular theory. The aim of this talk is to review some of the difficulties - and possible solutions - to measuring the degree of overlap...
