Dun Ailinne and Its Meaning in the Context of Irish Identities (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Susan Johnston.

This is an abstract from the "On the Periphery or the Leading Edge? Research in Prehistoric Ireland" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The notion that, historically, Ireland was a homogeneous society situated on the edge of Europe and passively receiving cultural influences has long been implicit in the larger context of European archaeology. And yet Irish society and culture were neither passive nor homogeneous at any point in the island’s history....

Dung Management in Medieval and Post-Medieval Brussels (Belgium) (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Luc Vrydaghs. Cristiano Nicosia. Yannick Devos. Alvise Vianello. Christine Pümpin.

During archaeological excavations in the center of Brussels (Belgium), often stratigraphic units containing dung – either omnivore-carnivore, including human, or herbivore – have been encountered. A multidisciplinary approach, comprising soil micromorphology, phytolith analysis and parasitology on soil thin sections, chemical analyses, including GC-MS and phosphorus measurements, was adopted to identify and characterize dung remains. In some cases dung was observed as part of the manure added to...

Dynamic Simulation of Large Herbivore Distribution during the Last Glacial Maximum: Implications for the Distribution of Human Populations (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Samuel Seuru. Liliana Perez. Ariane Burke.

This is an abstract from the "Novel Statistical Techniques in Archaeology II (QUANTARCH II)" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In this study we propose the use of agent-based modelling (ABM) and cellular automata (CA) to test the impact of predator-prey relationships on the distribution of prehistoric human populations. Our research goal is to establish a dynamic model of the distribution of large herbivores that constituted the main food source for...

EAGERs and RAPIDs – Small Grants with Big Outcomes at Surtshellir Cave, Iceland (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Kevin Smith.

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's stewardship of NSF's Arctic Social Sciences program not only expanded opportunities for large-scale collaborative research projects in the North, but also increased opportunities for supporting smaller "high risk" and "time-sensitive" projects through the EAGER and RAPID programs. These smaller projects,...

The Earliest Architectural Remains in Anatolia (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Alper Basiran. Cevdet Merih Erek.

The occupation of man has played an important role on cultural innovation; at the same time this process has always been a requirement of daily life for generation continuity. Since the start of human life history, choosing of places for occupation species has had different features. For example, the cave or rock shelters were preferred by Paleolithic man and they have hot style caves and/or shelters due to the period; this developed in Pleistocene climatologic conditions that were cold because...

Early Aurignacian Symbolic Technologies: Assessing the Relationship between Personal Ornaments and Coloring Materials in SW France (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Joelle Nivens.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Castel-Merle Valley (Dordogne, France) bears three of the most important Aurignacian (40-28 ka) sites: the Abris Blanchard, Castanet, and de la Souquette. Together, these sites offer strong evidence for the shifting social dynamics reflected in the period’s characteristic innovations. The best explored of this evidence are their atypically large and...

Early cities or large villages?: settlement dynamics in the Trypillia group, Ukraine (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Marco Nebbia.

During the 4th millennium BC a number of considerably big settlements have developed in the territory of modern Ukraine, thus constituting the biggest sites in Europe at that time. Mostly investigated only as single entities these "mega-sites" have never been considered thoroughly as part of the whole landscape of Trypillia settlements. Some scholars have argued that these could have been examples of early formed urban centres (aka "proto-cities"), others, instead, proposed that these were big...

The Early Neolithic LBK Communities in the Tusznica River Valley. Social Aspects of Settlement Changes (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Lech Czerniak.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. A group of LBK settlements located in a valley of the Tusznica river is one of the best recognized settlement complexes in Central Europe. Settlements that are a part of it are characterized by a quite differentiated built-up area arrangement and houses changeability over time, which I will interpret referring to social changes. The more complex interpretation...

Early warning signals of demographic collapse detected in a meta-database of European Neolithic radiocarbon dates (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Sean Downey. Randy Haas.

This study uses statistical tests known as "early warning signals" (EWS) to determine whether declining socio-ecological resilience presaged a pattern of collapse during the Early Neolithic Period in Europe. Our earlier research has shown with a high degree of certainty that radiocarbon-inferred human demography during the Neolithic exhibits a boom-and-bust pattern. In this new study we analyze our meta-database of radiocarbon dates in order to determine whether societies on the verge of major...

The Easter E.g. - Changing Perceptions of Cultural and Biological "Aliens" (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Naomi Sykes. Greger Larson. Carly Ameen. Philip Shaw. Tom Fowler.

Human immigration and biological invasions are high-profile topics in modern politics but neither are modern phenomena. Migrations of people, animals and ideas were widespread in antiquity and these are frequently incorporated into expressions of cultural identity. However, the more recent the migrations, the more negative modern attitudes are towards them. In general, native is perceived as positive and 'natural', whereas the term 'alien' is attached negatively to cultural and environmental...

Eating like a bird. Millet in Iron Age Italy: Economic, Political or identity choice? (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Laura Motta. Scott Russel.

Recent research reevaluating the evidence for consumption of millet in Archaic and Roman Italy indicates that its role has been underestimated. New findings from Iron Age and Archaic contexts at the Latin settlement of Gabii clearly support a more nuanced and complex situation than the one portrayed by ancient Latin authors and modern scholarship alike. The recovery of significant quantities of millet at Gabii is in sharp contrast with the absence of this crop in similar contexts from Iron Age...

The Economics behind Pottery: The Impact of Romanization on Castro Culture Ceramics in the Littoral Northwest (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Elizabeth De Marigny.

Through a comparative analysis of ceramic materials from several archaeological sites including the Cividade de Bagunte, this paper explores the effects of Romanization on the fields of production and consumption belonging to the Castro Culture of northwest Iberia. These sites were chosen because the archaeological materials uncovered reflect differences in social, political, and economic organization from the Iron Age to the Roman period. Further, the proximity of these sites to one another...

Economies of Symbolism: Procurement and Production with ‘Precious’ Materials in the French Upper Paleolithic (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Sarah Ranlett.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Since the Lower Paleolithic, the collections and/or minimal modification of rare or unusual materials – ‘precious’ materials – such as amber, lignite, soapstone, has been a part of the human behavioral suite (Moncel et al. 2012). During the Upper Paleolithic, this behavior intensified as these materials were routinely incorporated into symbolic systems through...

Educating Children of the Labouring Poor: Neepsend School and the Industrial City of Sheffield at the End of the Nineteenth Century (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Katherine Fennelly.

In the nineteenth century, the northern city of Sheffield in England developed significantly as the city’s traditional manufacturing output – metal and metalworking – was industrialised on a mass scale. To support this rapidly growing industrial city, services like railways and gasworks were constructed around the city perimeter, along with housing, shops, and other services and institutions. Neighbourhoods like the industrial colony of Parkwood Springs were home to long term residents, and a...

The Effects of Bilateral Asymmetry in Long Bone Length on Juvenile Age Predictions (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Luisa Marinho. Shera Fisk. Ellie Gooderham. Laure Spake. Hugo F. V. Cardoso.

Diaphyseal lengths are routinely used to estimate age in juvenile skeletal remains. However, the effects of bilateral asymmetry in bone growth on the estimation of age have not been properly addressed. This study uses a sample of 26 individuals of known age (birth to 11 years) from the skeletal collection housed at the Natural Museum of Natural History and Science, in Lisbon, Portugal. Diaphyseal length of the humerus, radius, ulna, femur, tibia and fibula, were collected from the right and left...
