Invisible Women in a World of Men: The Textile Trade in the North Atlantic, AD 1000–1600 (2021)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Michele Hayeur Smith.

This is an abstract from the "Social Archaeology in the North and North Atlantic (SANNA 3.0): Investigating the Social Lives of Northern Things" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Waterlogged or deeply buried deposits from medieval harbors in certain northern European towns have produced large and well-preserved textile assemblages that contain a surprising number of non-indigenous textiles. Some of these appear to have originated in the North...

Ireland in the Iron Age: Interaction, Identity, and Ritual (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Susan Johnston.

The relationship between Ireland and both Britain and continental Europe has often, both explicitly and implicitly, cast Ireland as either subsumed under the "British Isles" or as being "peripheral" to cultural life there and on the Continent. This terminology simultaneously ignores the unique aspects of Irish social and cultural life while suggesting that any study of culture there is not relevant to a broader understanding of the human experience. However, the archaeological record suggests a...

Irishness and the Bodies of the Poor in the 19th Century (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Barra ODonnabhain. Jonny Geber.

Mid-19th century Irish identities divided along lines of class, religion and gender but it could be argued that all were constructed in an atmosphere of the negative characterization of the island and its inhabitants by the British elite. Race and low "moral character" were blamed for the endemic poverty of the island. The Irish poor were portrayed as a "race apart" whose inherent failings were at least partly to blame for the mortality they suffered during the Great Famine of 1845–1852. Recent...

Iron Production at Marginal Settlements in Northern Iceland (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Nicholas Zeitlin.

The environment of Iceland was rapidly and severely affected by the Norse Settlement, in particular by deforestation. In Iceland’s changing environment the production of iron, an essential material, became limited not by access to iron ore but by availability of wood to make charcoal fuel. The large-scale production of iron may be one of the primary processes that led to deforestation in Iceland due to the large need for charcoal. Investigations at Stekkjarborg on the farm of Keldudalur in...

Is La Tène (Still) Relevant in British Iron Age Chronology? (2021)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Derek Hamilton.

This is an abstract from the "Constructing Chronologies II: The Big Picture with Bayes and Beyond" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. La Tène: a chronology that lives beyond the site, beyond regional and national boundaries; a term that conjures images of swirling ambiguous imagery, fine metalwork and shining pots. In Britain the term describes artifacts of apparently comparative date, in particular brooches. La Tène I brooches have strong affinities...

Island, Mainland, and the Space Between: The Role of Geography in Shaping Community Historical Trajectories of 19th and 20th Century Ireland (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Nicholas Ames. Meagan Conway.

This study looks at the relationship between geographical ‘islandness’ and community formation in Western Ireland. In this paper we investigate to what degree geography shapes the social, economic and political experiences of a community. Furthermore, we examine to what extent these elements of community composition strengthen or diminish their influence on each other. We compare the 19th and 20th century island communities of Inishbofin and Inishark, Co. Galway against the complementary...

Isotopic Analyses of Diet in Late Prehistoric Southwestern Transylvania (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Jess Beck. Horia Ciugudean. Colin Quinn. Claes Uhnér.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Southwestern Transylvania houses a rich prehistoric archaeological record, as well as abundant natural resources, including salt, tin, and some of the richest copper and gold deposits in Europe. The Mureș River, which connected prehistoric communities in Eastern and Central Europe, also flows through the region. Despite its status as an economic and...

Isotopic Investigations into Dietary Patterns of Early Medieval Communities in Thuringia, Germany (2024)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Jana Meyer. Keith Prufer.

This is an abstract from the "Life and Death in Medieval Central Europe" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Early Medieval period in Central Europe was a time of pronounced socioeconomic differences, as well as sociopolitical unrest. While the former Roman infrastructure was deteriorating, the costs of importing foods and other material goods into Thuringia increased, exacerbating differences in food availability between the various sectors of...

Isotopic tracking of trophic relationships (predation, competition, commensalism) between paleolithic humans and predators (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Hervé Bocherens. Dorothée Drucker. Martina Láznicková-Galetová. Mietje Germonpré. Christoph Wissing.

Predators are usually considered not so informative in zooarchaeological investigations, except when their bones carry cut-marks. They are more viewed as a disturbing factor for the bone assemblage. However, tracking their paleoecology using stable isotopes in their bones can yield valuable information on several key aspects of their relationships with paleolithic human populations. Especially carbon and nitrogen stable isotopic composition in bone collagen of predators compared to those of...

"It comes from gathering": Collaborative Archaeology and Future Directions (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Meredith Chesson.

This session interrogates the practice, theoretical foundations, and outcomes of collaborative archaeology, and explores how collaborators are transforming our discipline today. Today’s papers demonstrate how collaborative archaeology offers epistemological resources that traditional, public and even community archaeology cannot provide, and how collaborative approaches force us to reexamine the disciplinary goals, practices, and outcomes of archaeological practice widely. We have divided the...

Just a Scratch: An Experimental Application of Reverse-Microwear Analysis (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Kevin Malloy. Heather Rockwell.

In the summer of 2013 a thin piece of slate with peculiar, jagged grooves was recovered from the excavation of the Buzzart Dykes medieval park landscape in the council area of Perth and Kinross, Scotland. Unclear whether the grooves were natural or anthropogenic we employed a new method of examination, known as "reverse microwear analysis," to understand what material made the scratches. A series of experiments were conducted where slate pieces were incised using a variety of different stone and...

Just Beyond the ‘Land of Women’: Examining Gender in Early and Late Medieval Ireland (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Jennifer Shaffer Foster.

This is an abstract from the "Mind the Gap: Exploring Uncharted Territories in Medieval European Archaeology" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In 1996, historian Lisa Bitel published "Land of Women: Sex and Gender in Early Ireland," a critical study of medieval gender, which remains influential over 20 years later. While more recent historical and literary research is available, there have been relatively few archaeological investigations of gender...

The Kambos project. Remote sensing applications and archaeological approaches for the reconstruction of the disappeared cultural record of the Western Thessalian plain. (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Arnau Garcia. Hector A. Orengo. Athanasia Krahtopoulou. Anastasia Dimoula.

The Thessalian Plain has been at the fore of Neolithic research in Greece and Europe since early 20th century exploration in the area which documented an intensively occupied landscape during both Prehistoric and Historical periods. Despite the Thessalian Plain's potential for archaeological research, western Thessaly has provided scarce evidence of occupation. This might be related to the extensive modifications it has been subjected to during the last 45 years. These have rendered the Western...

The Key to It All: Anglo-Saxon Female Identity (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Brooke Creager.

This is an abstract from the "Small Things Unforgotten" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Keys are made to open locks: they are practical and necessary, so why were they deposited in Anglo-Saxon female burials? Anglo-Saxon female identity has been tied to domesticity and family, which has been interpreted based on grave goods. Recent reevaluations of 10th c AD Scandinavian culture has revealed a more complicated gender role for women than previously...

Knapping for the Thrill of It? The Non-Conservation of Raw Materials at Middle Paleolithic Sites (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Amy Clark.

Open-air Middle Paleolithic sites in France are characterized by dense piles of lithic material surrounded by low density "empty" areas. Spatial analysis can be used to segregate lithics artifacts based on whether they are located in the high or low density zones. This analysis is supported by the spatial tracking of refitting sets. The results indicate that high density zones likely correspond with knapping locations and low density areas contain lithics selected from the knapped material for...
