Learning by Doing: Past Foodways, Experimental Archaeology, and Collaborative Research (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Laurel Diciuccio. Nathan Jereb. Caelie Butler. Alyssa Lorain. Shelby Anderson.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Our broad goal is to share on-going research with diverse communities and learn more together about past foodways and food-related technologies. To achieve this, we facilitated several research and training workshops alongside Tribal, Alaska Native, and agency partners from Oregon and Alaska. Our intention was to pair Indigenous and archaeological...


Learning by Example: Exploring the Importance of Case Studies in Learning NAGPRA (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Jayne-Leigh Thomas. Larry Zimmerman. Felipe Estudillo Colon. Jeffrey Bendremer. Jennifer Meta Robinson.

Although the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) has existed for over a generation, educators and professionals continue to discuss the best ways to prepare learners for the complex and contextually specific process of repatriation. Every consultation and every repatriation differs, even when the same tribes and institutions are involved. Because of this, learners can benefit from seeing multiple examples of how NAGPRA is implemented and how different stakeholders...


Least Cost Analysis of Maritime Movement in Prince Rupert Harbour during the Holocene and Late Pleistocene (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Robert Gustas.

Spatial modeling of prehistoric maritime movement on the Pacific Northwest Coast is important in contemporary archaeology because it can help reveal previously unseen patterns and trends in movement through a landscape that has radically changed over time. GIS analysis has the potential to reveal new sites that have been hidden by changing sea levels. Here we present models of maritime movement using least cost path analysis (LCA) to determine the area’s most likely to have been traveled through...


Least-Cost-Path Analysis as a Predictive Device for Conveyance and Mobility Patterns: The Case of Walker Road Obsidian (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only John White. Ted Goebel.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The geochemical sourcing of artifacts manufactured on volcanic materials has often been used as a proxy for levels of landscape learning and mobility among Paleoindian peoples. Moreover, when traced to known sources, the distribution of volcanic materials has informed studies of specific conveyance patterns. The Walker Road site in the Nenana valley of central...


Lessons from the Viking Age (1998)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Darrell Markewitz.

This academic paper was written in early 1998 about various aspects of the Interpretive program developed for L'Anse aux Meadows NHS. Two versions of the same basic paper were created, suited to different audiences. The first version was presented at the 33rd International Medieval Congress at Western Michigan University. The second paper, (the one available here) was given at the 27th Annual Association for Living Historical Farms & Agricultural Museums (ALHFAM) Conference at University of...


Lessons Learned from Simulating Precolumbian Canoe Travel in Eastern North America (2024)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Patrick Livingood.

This is an abstract from the "What’s Canoe? Recent Research on Dugouts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. David Hurst Thomas (1972) described how model building and simulation can lead to serendipitous discoveries, that is findings that were not originally intended. In several projects to simulate cost distance of canoe travel in eastern North America, most of the memorable and impactful lessons have been a result of serendipity. This paper will...

Let’s Talk about a NAGPRA Community of Practice (2021)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Ellen Lofaro. Anne Amati.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. As we reflect on the 30th anniversary of the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act of 1990 (NAGPRA), practitioners recognize the progress that has been made and acknowledge the vast amount of work left to be done. In order to meet that challenge, we need to increase capacity for NAGPRA implementation, improve overall engagement with ongoing...

"Like winning the Stanley Cup": The Discovery of Sir John Franklin's HMS Erebus in the Canadian Arctic (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Marc-André Bernier.

In September of 2014, the Prime Minister of Canada announced with great fanfare the discovery of one of the two lost ships of Sir John Franklin’s expedition that left England in 1845. The discovery in the Canadian Arctic of the ship eventually identified as HMS Erebus was the result of the most ambitious survey effort to locate Franklin’s vessels. Started in 2008, the search program, spearheaded by Parks Canada and the Government of Nunavut for underwater and terrestrial archaeology components...


Linguistic relationships between the Apachean sub-group and Northern Athapaskan (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Sally Rice. Conor Snoek. Michaela Stang.

Linguistic evidence has long played an important role in determining the relationship of Apachean peoples to Northern Athapaskans (Sapir 1936). While Apachean membership within the larger Athapaskan family is firmly established, the more precise determination of their linguistic affiliation to Northern Athapaskan linguistic groups has proved more difficult (Rice 2012). The reasons for this difficulty arose chiefly from the lack of available data and the limitations in the power of analytic...

Listening to One Another: Contributions of Indigenous People to the Life and Research of Dennis Stanford (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Margaret Jodry.

A wealth of mentors, colleagues, and friends influence the evolution of one’s approach to archaeological research. This paper reflects on Dennis Stanford’s associations with native people beginning with his graduate student days involved in audio recording American Indian Oral Histories for the Doris Duke Foundation, including learning from Santa Ana Pueblo Cacique Porfirio Montoya and his wife Eudora Montoya, assisting with land claims for the return of Sacred Blue Lake to the people of Taos...


Listening to Wood: Material Engagements with Sound and Trees (2021)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Jonathan Goldner.

This is an abstract from the "Archaeoacoustics: Sound, Hearing, and Experience in Archaeology" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This paper in cognitive archaeology studies how skilled agents use eco-acoustical features of the environment as mnemonic device. Beginning with the question, What do trees know about canoes?, I excavate how ways of knowing can be deeply sedimented in nature by drawing on the ethnography of Algonquin rock art and fieldwork...


Literacy, Toys, and Social Roles: Childrearing and Subject Making on the 19th Century Wisconsin Frontier (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Dana Olesch. Guido Pezzarossi. Philip Millhouse.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The "lead rush" initiated a mass migration of Euro-American miners, military officers, and government agents to the southwestern Wisconsin territory during the first half of the nineteenth century. Likely implementing prospecting methods developed by indigenous Meskwaki and Ho-Chunk peoples, multiethnic mining communities emerged in areas such as Gratiots...
