The Ute Mountain Ute Tribal Historic Preservation Office has worked regularly with archaeologists. While archaeology focuses largely on scientific understanding, the effects of this work on tribes and other stakeholders also needs to be considered. Through this talk,...

Utopia Excavated: Preliminary Results from the Amana Colonies (2013)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Christian J. Haunton.

The seven Amana villages of east-central Iowa were founded in the mid 19th century by German pietists seeking a removed location in which to practice their unique form of communal Christianity. In 1932 the community voted to separate the governing body of the church from the political and economic facets of community life for the first time, this event is remembered today as the "Great Change." In summer of 2012 a group of outhouses were excavated at the Amanas as part of a project to look at...

The Value of Anthropological Research for the Pueblo of Pojoaque (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Joseph Talachy.

This is an abstract from the "From Collaboration to Partnership in Pojoaque, New Mexico" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Like many of my community, I grew up here, learning about the landscape by living within it and walking over it. Evidences of our long history are found everywhere and I always wanted to know more. Our older members taught us about our land too. But it was difficult to recognize Pojoaque when I read archaeology; I also noticed...


Values in Maritime Archaeological Heritage: A Socio-Economic Study in Understanding the Public's Perceptions and Willingness to Pay for Preserving Shipwrecks in the Graveyard of Atlantic, North Carolina (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Calvin Mires.

Off the coast of North Carolina’s Outer Banks are the remains of ships spanning hundreds of years of history, architecture, technology, industry, and maritime culture.  Potentially more than 2,000 ships have been lost in "The Graveyard of the Atlantic" due to a combination of natural and human factors.  These shipwrecks are tangible artifacts to the past and constitute important archaeological resources.  They also serve as dramatic links to North Carolina’s historic maritime heritage, helping...


Vanished Cultural Landscapes of the Qualla Boundary (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Russell G. Townsend.

Landscapes of tribal reservations vary across the regions of the United States, yet change to these landscapes remains a constant. On the constrained reservations of the east any change to the landscape can be of great significance.  The Qualla Boundary in western North Carolina is one such reservation.  Home to the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, this 57,000 acre section of trust land has changed significantly over the past century, but with the economic boon brought about by the casino, the...


Vapaki: Akimel O’Odham Cultural Knowledge Regarding Classic Period Platform Mound Villages in the Phoenix Basin (2024)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Chris Loendorf. Barnaby Lewis. Glen Rice.

This is an abstract from the "Collaborative Archaeology: How Native American Knowledge Enhances Our Collective Understanding of the Past" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Vapaki is plural in the O’Odham language for Vah’ki, which is the name used to refer to what archaeologists now call Classic period (ca. 1250–1450) platform mound villages. Importantly, Vah’ki is specifically applied only to platform mound sites, and the term is not used to refer...


Variability in Clovis Biface Morphology from the Type-site, Blackwater Draw Locality 1 (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Heather Smith. Brendon Asher.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Blackwater Draw Locality 1 site provides one of the most unique perspectives of Paleoindian behavior in North America. Spatial evidence surrounding faunal and lithic assemblages have inspired researchers to hypothesize site function to represent kill, scavenging, caching, or domestic activities. Its setting relative to other localities of resource...

Variability in the Early Stages of Manufacture of Virginia Fluted Points: an experimental study (1973)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Errett Callahan.

Variability of Clovis Lithic Assemblages from El Fin del Mundo and the San Pedro River Valley (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Ismael Sánchez-Morales.

This is an abstract from the "Variability: A Reassessment of Its Meaning, Afforded Range, and the Relation to Process" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Clovis populations have been traditionally characterized as wide ranging, highly mobile foragers, as reflected most notably in the intense utilization of high quality, nonlocal cryptocrystalline lithic raw materials. However, in Sonora, Mexico, local non-cryptocrystalline tool stones dominate Clovis...

Variation in Response to Heat-Treatment in Jasper from the Perkinsville Valley, Arizona (2021)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Nicolas Hansen. John Murray. Alexa Ferrer. Hanah Edington. Kathryn Ranhorn.

This is an abstract from the "Human Origins Migration and Evolution Research Consortium Poster Symposium" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The heat treatment of lithic raw material is a globally dispersed technology that improves the flaking quality of toolstone. While not all types of stone respond to heat treatment, many forms of microcrystalline silicates do, including jasper. Here, we aim to better understand how Perkinsville jasper responds to...


Vecino Archaeology and the Politics of Play (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Sunday Eiselt.

Francis Swadesh identified an 18th century vecino cultural pattern, which after American occupation, retracted into the isolated hills and tributary valleys of the northern Rio Grande.  This paper investigates the impacts of the American invasion on vecino culture through a consideration of children’s artifacts and fantasy play.  As children were gradually excluded from the workforce and drawn into the home, they were simultaneously pulled into an expanding commercial market and public...


Vecinos: The Symbiotic Relationship between Picuris Pueblo and Its Indio-Hispano Neighbors (2024)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Levi Romero.

This is an abstract from the "Collaborative Archaeology at Picuris Pueblo: The New History" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This presentation seeks to capture the rewards of a neighboring progression that moves away from past conflicts toward reconciliation forming a new history between the Pueblo and Indio-Hispano people. Inter-communal exchanges between the Spanish and Pueblos helped them to endure droughts, famines, diseases, and the eventual...


Vectors of Privilege: The Material Culture of White Flight (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Christopher Matthews.

The achievement gap, "failing" schools, re-segregation and blight, while often seen as problems and signs of people of color in the US, are better understood as the results of modern efforts to enforce white privilege. Thus, as historical research on the building and renewal of American cities proceeds, we need to pay attention to how policies and practices supporting racial advantage were put in place and made material on the landscape. The urban and suburban northeast is an especially good...

Vertebrate Response to Little Ice Age Climate Change in the Ohio River Valley (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Nichelle Lyle. Kenneth Tankersley.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This paper examines vertebrate species from Fort Ancient archaeological sites in the Ohio River Valley, which date to the Little Ice Age. They are compared to vertebrate species from archaeological sites, which predate the Little Ice Age and from modern contexts. The results of this comparison suggest that vertebrate species exhibited individual responses to...


"A Very Good and Substantial Fort" or "More like a Child’s Playhouse": The History and Archaeology of Civilian Fortifications during the U.S. – Dakota War of 1862 in Minnesota (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Rob Mann. Charles Peliska. Jacob Dupre.

In August 1862 long-simmering tensions between the Dakota and Euro-American traders, settlers, soldiers, and government officials boiled over into open warfare. For nearly two months militant Dakota warriors, ostensibly under the leadership of renowned chief Little Crow, attacked Euro-American settlements and military installations. In response, settlers across southwest and central Minnesota either fled the region or attempted to fortify their settlements. These so-called "settlers’ forts" of...
