Stable Isotope Analysis of the Diet of Romans and Langobards in the Veneto from Late Antiquity to the Medieval Period (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Ashley Maxwell. Robert H. Tykot.

Limited isotopic research has been conducted in the Veneto, Italy during the transitional period after the fall of the Western Roman Empire and arrival of the Germanic Langobards in the sixth century AD. Questions remain of the local implications of diet during this period of instability, when invasions and population decline occurred. Thus, this research compares Roman and Langobard populations from late antiquity to the medieval period using stable isotope analysis on bone collagen, apatite,...


A Stable Isotopes Analysis of Ungulate Remains from Lapa do Picareiro: An Assessment of Refugia Concepts during the Middle Paleolithic and Transition to Upper Paleolithic (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Milena Carvalho. Emily Lena Jones. David Meiggs. Jonathan Haws.

This is an abstract from the "Peninsular Southern Europe Refugia during the Middle Paleolithic" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Neanderthals and anatomically modern humans (AMH) adapted to a series of environmental changes during the Late Pleistocene and may have sought refugia in the southern reaches of Europe in response to environmental degradation. Explanatory models such as the Ebro Frontier Model propose that Neanderthals were adapted to...

Stonehenge: a Late Neolithic megasite (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Mike Parker Pearson.

Stonehenge is part of a larger complex of Late Neolithic (3000–2450 BC) sites and monuments on Salisbury Plain, including a major settlement complex with monumental timber circles at Durrington Walls. Evidence for occupation from this period covers over 8 square miles. In particular, the Durrington Walls settlement covered 42 acres, built in the same period as Stonehenge’s main stage of construction. This settlement was occupied only for decades, or even just a few years, by people with a...

Strategies and Tools for Managing Change. What Lithic Artefacts Tell about Neandertals and First Anatomically Modern Humans in Liguria (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Fabio Negrino. Stefano Bertola. Julien Riel-Salvatore.

This is an abstract from the "Recent Advances in the Prehistory of Liguria and Neighboring Regions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Liguria is an arch of land overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, with mountain areas, very rare coastal planes and steeply sloping valleys. In spite of this peculiar orography this region represented an important passageway between France and central-northern Italy, allowing the diffusion of human groups, ideas, artefacts...


The Study of Castles throughout Europe: Limitations of Multi-Regional Studies (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Scott Kirk.

For much of Europe, castles represent a point of cultural heritage and national pride. Yet, even though the study of castles has long been of interest to scholars, few researchers have moved beyond intraregional analyses to examine interregional trends in the manifestation of these monuments. Traditional archaeological investigations examining cross-cultural differences have been hampered primarily by language barriers and differences in how researchers approach questions pertaining to the...

Subsistence and Political Economy: Dairying and Change in Late Prehistoric Ireland (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Erin Crowley.

Cattle played a critical role in the economic and socio-political structure of the Iron Age in Ireland, yet the nature of this relationship is not yet clear. The Irish Iron Age (~500 BC - AD 500) is characterized by scant settlement evidence yet with several large, complex, ceremonial centers. It has been difficult, therefore, to contextualize the nature of social change leading into the Early Medieval Period. The Early Medieval Period (~ AD 500-1100), emerged with a fully-developed dairying...


Subverting Forced Confinement? Methodological Approaches to Re-peopling Archaeological Studies of Institutions (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Laura McAtackney.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Archaeological studies of institutions have had varying degrees of success in moving beyond the intentions of their builders - and their often-imposed material culture - to understand how the inhabitants lived in and experienced them. Our overarching interest in analyzing, recording and interpreting material remains can sometimes prevent us from moving beyond...


Supply and Demand in the Neolithic Quarry Production of Northwest Europe (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Kevan Edinborough. Peter Schauer. Andrew Bevan. Mike Parker-Pearson. Stephen Shennan.

What factors influenced non-agricultural production in prehistory? This has long been a topic of debate in prehistoric archaeology, because it relates to the question of whether people in prehistoric societies had ‘economic’ motivations and what those might have been. The paper presents the first results of the NEOMINE project, which is analyzing the evidence for stone quarrying and flint-mining and the factors affecting consumption of their products by Neolithic early farming communities in...


Sustainable Futures in Southern Calabria: Vibrant Communities, Farming Heritage, and Loving the Rural Life (2024)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Meredith S. Chesson. Isaac Ullah. Paula Lazrus. Kostalena Michelaki. Giovanni Iiriti.

This is an abstract from the "Making Historical Archaeology Matter: Rethinking an Engaged Archaeology of Nineteenth- to Twenty-First-Century Rural Communities of Western Ireland and Southern Italy" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Small rural towns throughout Italy struggle with declining populations, and many sell houses for extraordinarily little money to lure people to become residents and invest in these communities. The Bova Marina...


Sustainable Heritage through Community Engagement and Education (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Ruth Maher. Jane Downes.

In addressing the problem of burning libraries, this paper focuses on sustainable heritage through public awareness and civic engagement. Political rhetoric and limited first-hand experience has created a system whereby the impacts of climate change, coastal erosion, and rising sea levels are no longer a priority; and for students, it has become but a distant concern. This paper addresses these problems through education programs designed to (i) get students involved in the archaeology of...


Swandro, Rousay, Orkney: Between Sea and Land (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Stephen Dockrill. Julie Bond.

The site of Swandro is on the eroding coastal fringe of the island of Rousay, Orkney and has been the focus of field training for the next archaeological generation between the University of Bradford, Archaeological Institute UHI and Hunter College, CUNY since 2010. Such sites are a finite resource, endangered by coastal erosion exacerbated by the effects of climate change. The site straddles both the shore and the land and consists of a Neolithic Chambered Cairn and a later settlement dating...


Symbolic behavior at the end of the Paleolithic: a view from Cantabrian region rock art (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Aitor Ruiz-Redondo.

In the field of graphic activity, the recent Magdalenian (14,500-11,500 BP) is characterized by a homogenizing process along a vast territory in southwestern Europe. It also represents the most splendorous rock art period and, at its end, figurative graphic activity suddenly disappears from Europe for millennia. A representative assemblage of recent Cantabrian Magdalenian rock art sites has been studied. The results of this research led to the discovery of several unpublished figures and...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Margaret Nelson. Thomas McGovern.

This is an abstract from the "Celebrating Anna Kerttula's Contributions to Northern Research" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Anna Kerttula had the vision and commitment to support an experiment: two interdisciplinary research teams working in dramatically different settings, striving to find valuable insights from cross-region, cross-case studies. One team from the North Atlantic islands (NABO) and another from the US Southwest (LTVTP) combined...


Synthesizing Results from the 2017–2022 Excavations at Crvena Stijena (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Gilliane Monnier. Gilbert Tostevin. Goran Pajovic. Mile Bakovic. Nikola Borovinic.

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. The excavations at Crvena Stijena from 2017–2022 have had two main objectives. The first is to test the Sandgathe/Dibble hypothesis that Neanderthals did not have the ability to make fire; rather, they were dependent on natural occurrences of fire. The testable implication...
