Chronological Perspectives on the Spread of Agriculture in Southeastern Europe (2021)
This is an abstract from the "Constructing Chronologies I: Stratification and Correlation" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Neolithic studies in Europe have recently seen the impact of two very different sets of approaches to building chronological frameworks using radiocarbon dating. On the one hand, archaeologists have used radiocarbon dates as proxies for levels of human activity on past landscapes by employing summed probability distributions of...
Climatic Narratives across Eurasia: A Comparative Study of the 4.2k Event in Western and Eastern Asia (2018)
In the last two decades, climatic narratives have returned as a central issue in archaeological discourse. The field has been flooded with publications on paleoclimatic reconstructions and we believe it is time for a critical evaluation – both as means of seeking better science, and for building better archaeological narratives. Climate history is composed by an overlapping meshwork of long-standing trends, punctuated events and short-term phases, with impacts ranging from the local to the...
Clues about Neanderthal Fire Technology and Climate from a Microstratrigraphic Study of Unit XXIV at Crvena Stijena, Montenegro (2023)
This is an abstract from the "The Late Middle Paleolithic in the Western Balkans: Results from Recent Excavations at Crvena Stijena, Montenegro" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. A trend in the past few decades of archaeological research is to apply different microstratigraphic techniques, which provide clues about behavioral and paleoenvironmental aspects of past societies. At Crvena Stijena (Montenegro), a Middle Paleolithic site under current...
Combining Proteomic Sex Determination of Archaeological Remains with Isotopic Analyses for Understanding the Development of Animal Husbandry (2024)
This is an abstract from the "Integrating Isotope Analyses: The State of Play and Future Directions" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Proteomic techniques are being increasingly used in bioarchaeological applications to improve understanding of the human past. However, few studies have focused on the study of tooth enamel for sexing in archaeofaunal remains despite initial studies over a decade ago looking at human teeth. Here we use of...

Comparing Demographic Patterns of Archaeological and Modern Cemetery Data: A Novel Application of GPS Technology (2024)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Bioarchaeologists routinely generate demographic estimates of past populations from archaeological contexts across time and geography. Despite numerous ways that bioarchaeological data enhance demographic reconstructions of past populations, few contexts allow direct comparison between archaeological and modern demography of the same locale. This project...
A Computational Approach to Bone Histology Analysis in Archaeology (2023)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Early Bronze Age in Transylvania exhibits two different mortuary traditions, one associated with the Yamnaya migration in the lowlands and the other associated with the local Transylvanian groups in the highlands. A key question for archaeologists has been how these traditions differ in respect to primary and secondary inhumation. The tempo of funerary...
Concealed Evidence of Early Human-Environment Interactions in Sedimentary Archives of Small Rivers in the Forest-Steppe Belt of Eurasia (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The results of on-site archaeological investigations alone are not enough to reconstruct landscape histories, because they provide incomplete information on past environments. In contrast, off-site sedimentary archives can provide information on the interaction of natural and human processes that modify the landscape. Our initial research on the sedimentary...
Conclusion: Living within and with the Wetlands (2024)
This is an abstract from the "The Archaeology of Wetlands" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Wetlands are valuable ecosystems for many animal species, but they also present critical ecosystems for humans. By protecting against floods, erosion and improving water quality, wetlands present a valuable source for human food procurement and activities. In this paper, I exemplify the role of wetlands from the Southern Carpathian Basin by presenting...
Confronting the Lost Cause through Conflict Archaeology: Natural Bridge, Florida (2022)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Paper / Report Submission (General Sessions)" , at the 2022 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The Lost Cause is an essential underpinning of Jim Crow most visible in Confederate monuments but also in Civil War battles preserved as public monuments. Although it is true that the victors write the history books, there may not have been a push to do so in the case of small-scale engagements, which allowed the fabricated...
The Consequences of Cultural Encounters on Late Bronze Age Transylvania Cuisine and Subsistence Economies (2021)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The transition to the Late Bronze Age in Transylvania around 1500 BCE coincided with the arrival of the Noua cultural group from the Eurasian Steppe. These new migrant communities arrived in a Transylvanian landscape that had been occupied by the Wietenberg cultural group for over 500 years. For nearly 150 years, communities with both the Noua and Wietenberg...
Cooking in Clay: A Diachronic Study of Potting and Cooking Traditions in Bronze Age Toumba Thessaloniki, Northern Greece (2024)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Toumba Thessaloniki, situated on the coastal plain of the Thermaikos Gulf in Northern Greece, was one of the largest settlements in Central Macedonia during the Bronze Age. The prolonged occupation of the site spanning from the Middle Bronze Age through the Classical period resulted in the formation of an artificial mound of approximately 1 hectare. The...
Cooperation, Co-funding, and Confusion: EU Funding for Bulgarian Archaeology (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In the post-Brexit era, the impact of EU policies and funding on archaeological and cultural heritage projects has come under renewed scrutiny by those in both the public and private sectors. Academic and commercial institutions alike are now questioning the influence that membership in the EU, and its corresponding funding, has on the ways in which...
Crnobuki: A Garrisoned Acropolis (2023)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Cal Poly Humboldt has established a relationship with the Museum of Bitola to conduct research in the Pelagonia region of Macedonia. The museum and Cal Poly Humboldt conducted an initial reconnaissance of several locations and established a research location in Crnobuki. The acropolis adjacent to the town is the location of an ancient Macedonian garrison...
Cross-Craft Interactions in the Central European Bronze Age (2024)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Archaeometric data obtained for various raw materials used by Central European communities in the Bronze Age (ca. 2300-800 BC) allow us to study technological interactions in the past realized mostly within usually small and densely settled sites. In this study, cross-craft contact zones between the selected activities are crucial. They are likely to...
Cutting Edge Technology: A Comparison of the Environmental Impact on the Emergence and Dispersal of Microblades in Siberia and Northern China (2024)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. During the Upper Paleolithic, microblade tools emerged in Siberia and northern China, representing a significant technological advancement in tool-making and tool use. It is hypothesized that microblades emerged early in Siberia as an adaptation to the cold high-altitude environments, and the intensification of forager mobility due to the harsh...
Dark Heritage in Tallinn: Dissonant Narratives of Mass Violence (2024)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This presentation will examine several museums and heritage initiatives connected to Nazi and/or Soviet violence in and around Tallinn, Estonia, through the lens of “dark” and “contested” heritage, as well as “competitive victimhood” and “securitization of the past.” It will analyze the narratives of victimhood, perpetration, and suffering that are...
