Ceramic Dating and Type Associations (2006)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Keith Kintigh.

This chapter examines a number of issues associated with dating archaeological sites based on the joint occurrence of artifact types. The approach presented permits a quantitative evaluation of the degree of association (or disassociation) of types based on their frequency of co-occurrence in empirical assemblages. Use of this method can aid in the evaluation of ceramic complex or ceramic group models that are so often used in the ceramic dating of sites. Judicious use of the proposed analyses...

The Great Maya Droughts in Cultural Context: Case Studies in Residence and Vulnerability (2014)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Uploaded by: Chelsea Walter

In The Great Maya Droughts in Cultural Context, contributors reject the popularized link between societal collapse and drought in Maya civilization, arguing that a series of periodic "collapses," including the infamous Terminal Classic collapse (AD 750), were caused not solely by climate change-related droughts but by a combination of other social, political, and environmental factors. New and senior scholars of archaeology and environmental science explore the timing and intensity of droughts...
