Reconstruction of an Iron Age Hut (1967)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Peter J. Reynolds.

In the summer of 1966 an experiment to reconstruct an Iron Age hut took place on Bredon Hill.

Reconstruction of Genetic Diversity prior to Recolonization of Nearly Extinct Alpine Ibex (Capra ibex) using Ancient DNA (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Giada Ferrari. Mathieu F. Robin. Claudia Vigano. Michael G. Campana. Christine Grossen.

Human activity has driven several mammal species close to extinction. The Alpine ibex (Capra ibex) suffered a severe bottleneck during the 19th century, when overhunting and habitat loss resulted in less than a hundred individuals surviving in the Italian Alps. Since then, the Alpine ibex has been successfully reintroduced across the Alpine ridge. Genetic analyses reveal a low genetic diversity in all extant populations, a common phenomenon in species that have gone through a recent bottleneck....

Recreating the Timing and Patterns of First Peopling with the Bayesian Approach (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Magdalena Schmid.

The timing and patterns of first peopling offer exciting opportunities to understand the legacies of colonization. In particular, islands are defined territories where colonization processes can be tracked through a rigorous synthesis of empirical data and a systematic application of Bayesian statistics. Iceland provides one of the world’s premier case studies for human interactions of pristine ecosystems because its colonization in the 9th century occurred relatively late in history....

Recycling Woodlands: Timber Use and Reuse in Timber Framed Buildings in West Suffolk, England (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Sarah Breiter.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Human-environmental relations, mediated by builders and householders, are visible in the framework of vernacular buildings. The builder’s selection in material is mediated by geography and ecology, as well as land management practices, law, and social custom. In West Suffolk, England, there are hundreds of timber-framed buildings constructed between 1450...

Red ochre at Hohle Fels, Germany: The use of pigment and space at an Upper Paleolithic cave site (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Elizabeth Velliky. Martin Porr. Nicholas Conard.

Some of the most informative artifacts regarding early symbolic behaviors in Europe come from Hohle Fels Cave, Germany. Hohle Fels (HF) boasts a detailed Upper Paleolithic sequence, and an extensive array of ochre artifacts. In this project, we systematically investigate the ochre assemblage at HF by quantity, type and modification, and proximity to other archaeological features. The ochre assemblage includes painted limestone pieces, faunal elements, fossils, and potential grindstones with...

Reformulating Cultural Heritage Management Strategies in the Post-Soviet Caucasus region. (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Alvaro Higueras.

The inheritance of Soviet-molded approaches to cultural heritage has seen slow changes in the last two decades in ex-Soviet South Caucasian countries. This is not surprising: if the same specialists continue to run and manage heritage change is expected to be slow; new generations are just starting to work in state agencies. The exposure of the systems to new approaches and its practical application is a difficult task. To compound the problems, the heritage of Georgia, Azerbaijan and Armenia is...

Refugees, tradition and the state: malleable materials and plastic practices in ceramic production on Lesvos, Greece. (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Peter Day.

Lesvos (Mytilini) in the Eastern Aegean has been prominent on our TV screens during the human migration towards Europe. The last major population movement in the area, around 100 years ago, comprised the Greek-speaking Christian Orthodox, including several potters, forced out of Asia Minor. Some of these craftspeople came from Canakkale, in present day Turkey, working in the tradition of sometimes bizarre glazed wares. They settled on an island with a large number of active workshops producing...

Regional Trade and Political Power in the Carpathian Basin Bronze Age: The Case of Pecica-Şanţul Mare (Romania) (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Amy Nicodemus. John O'Shea.

Pecica Şanţul-Mare (Romania) was a major trade center during the Middle Bronze Age. Its inhabitants participated intensively in regional and extra-regional exchange networks, bringing a range of utilitarian and prestige goods into the Lower Mureş valley. The quantity and diversity of imported items at Pecica far exceeds that of contemporary settlements in the region, with goods often by-passing other Mureş Culture communities along the major trade routes. Pecica also appears to have had...

The Rein Basin Chert Mine, Styria, Austria: A Neolithic Center for Tabular Chert Quarrying (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Michael Brandl. Daniel Modl.

Since 2009, the Neolithic chert quarrying site in the Rein Basin in Styria (Austria) has been the focus of a multidisciplinary research project. A mining area for tabular chert, approximately 10 hectares in size, was established at this locale in the course of a series of archaeological excavations, core soundings and a geophysical prospection. At Rein, tabular chert occurs in residual loams and mined in up to four meter deep shafts. According to this evidence, the site is only the second...

A Relational View of Pilgrimage: Movements, Materials, and Affects (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Benjamin Skousen.

In this paper I discuss three tenets of what I call a relational view of pilgrimage. Overall, this perspective sees pilgrimage as a means through which people, things, places, and more move and converge in ways that instigate what Eliade (1959) called "hierophanies." The first tenet is that movement is crucial – indeed, the nature of a pilgrimage depends on what, where, and how entities (human and non-human) move and assemble. The second is that objects and landscapes (e.g., relics, offerings,...

Religious belief and cooperation in Viking societies (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Mark Collard. Ben Raffield. Neil Price.

It has become clear in recent years that it was not uncommon for Viking groups to be heterogeneous. Numerous studies carried out over the last 25 years indicate that, in the short term at least, sociocultural diversity has a negative impact on trust within communities, and that this leads to a reduction in the willingness of community members to support public projects. Thus, one issue raised by the discovery that many Viking groups were heterogeneous is how loyalty to the group was achieved. In...

The repeated replacement model reexamined – Methodological considerations and dataset improvements (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Marcel Bradtmöller. Gerd Christian Weniger. Andreas Maier. Isabell Schmidt. Maria José Iriarte-Chiapusso.

Five years ago a general explanation model was introduced regarding the observed dynamics during the Upper Paleolithic timeframe on the Iberian Peninsular. In doing so, a scenario of repeated replacements of human groups was established, reflected by fluctuations within the radiocarbon chronology and changes within the archaeological record. Incorporated into the "Adaptive Cycle Model", this model assumes a strong relationship between the constant changes of stadial-interstadial environmental...

Rescue Excavations at a Medieval Fishing Station in Western Iceland (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Frank Feeley.

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. In 2008 an eroding midden along Iceland’s western coast was discovered to be part of a large 15th century commercial fishing station - the first of its kind to be found in Iceland. The site was clearly endangered by coastal erosion and with support from the National Science Foundation rescue excavations were carried out over...

Rethinking Migration and Mobility in the Late Roman West with Ceramic Petrography (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Vince Van Thienen.

For some time the study of migration with ceramics was considered unreliable or unuseful after the ethnic discourse applied by cultural historians. The idea of 'pots=people' was heavily criticized, and rightly so: for similarities in style can result from mobility in people, goods and ideas. Yet, discarding the ceramic evidence altogether is not the solution. With a proper understanding of the limitations and issues, and ideally supplemented with other datasets, the distribution of ceramics and...
