Culture Contact and Gender Dynamics in Early Iron Age Southern Italy (2024)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Giulia Saltini Semerari.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. While both gender archaeology and culture contact studies have well-developed bodies of theory, the intersection between these is undertheorized, especially outside more recent and better-documented historical archaeology. This is problematic, since any process of interaction potentially implicates divergent gendered expectations and norms, and can upset...


Curation of Human Skeletal Remains and Bioarchaeological Practice in Greek Context (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Eleanna Prevedorou. Jane Buikstra.

Human skeletal remains constitute perhaps the most sensitive archaeological material, both biologically and socioculturally. Their recovery, preservation, curation, storage, and analysis are complex issues that need to be addressed within any given biocultural context. Given the country’s geography and the long history of human occupation, Greek field archaeology is intense and ongoing, as part of either rescue excavations or academic research projects. Graves, cemeteries, and human skeletal...


Current developments in cyber-infrastructure in European archaeology (2016)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Julian Richards. Franco Niccolucci.

This is a pdf copy of the PPT slides used for this presentation in the SAA symposium. In Europe, as in North America, there has been little attention to the long term issues of digital data curation, with consequent risks of catastrophic data loss. In recent years, however, there has been mounting pressure on government agencies and universities to ensure that the research they fund, and the underlying data, are properly managed, and are available ‘Open Access’. Consequently, several European...


Cutmark Orientation and the Identification of Skill in Experimental and Middle Paleolithic Contexts (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Charles P. Egeland. Christopher Nicholson. Kevin Covell. Robert Sanderford. Kristen Welch.

The process of skill accumulation can reveal a great deal about learning, cultural transmission, and the value ascribed by societies to particular tasks or behaviors. Such information is of great interest to Paleolithic archaeologists who are charged with reconstructing these behaviors over vast expanses of space and time. Zooarchaeological remains, and the butchery marks that appear on them, are a potentially rich source of information on skill. Here, we present experimental data on cutmark...


Cypriot Clay Bodies: Contact, Corporeality, and Figurine Use in the Cypriot Late Bronze Age (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Emily Booker.

This is an abstract from the "Mediterranean Archaeology: Connections, Interactions, Objects, and Theory" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The clay "Astarte" figurines of Cyprus’ Late Bronze Age are enigmatic and well-known, and their emphasis on female reproductive organs lead most scholars to argue for fertilic functions. Yet how were these figurines actually used? And how do they fit within the much larger repertoire of Late Bronze Age figurines...


Daily Life in a Classical Port City: Archaeobotanical Evidence from Northern Greece (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Emily Dawson. Alexandria Mitchem. Fabian Toro. Chantel White.

Recent excavations at Molyvoti, a large fourth century B.C. settlement on the northern Aegean coast, have uncovered a residential neighborhood of homes and roadways laid out on a Hippodamian grid system. Thousands of carbonized plant remains have been identified from excavated domestic contexts including house floors, hearths, and abandoned wells. Macrobotanical results indicate that residents’ diets relied heavily on cereals such as barley and free-threshing wheat. Cereal processing activities...

The Dating Game: The Dialogue between Absolute and Relative Techniques in the British Iron Age (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Derek Hamilton.

The traditional approach to the Iron Age (c. 800 cal BC–cal AD 43) has been to construct complex chronologies based on artefact typologies. Historically, radiocarbon dating was eschewed in this period, because it was thought to offer less precision than artefact dating. Such views are becoming increasingly untenable, and recent Iron Age research is showing that typological dating produces sequences that are regularly too late. This paper will draw upon British Iron Age research from across the...

The Dead in a Transylvanian Village (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Adrian Padure.

The present paper is part of a doctoral research project.The project develops and reworks a 1930s sociological exploration,conducted as part of the Sociological School of Bucharest. In this paper I will make a broader framing, at a Romanian macro-level, of the funerary practices conducted within the village of Clopotiva,Transylvania. I intend to use both data from the 1930s research,as well as a new exploratory input gained during my fieldwork, which began in 2012.I will tackle handling of the...


Death Games: exploring the Békés 103 cemetery using 3D technology (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Gustavo Cerquera Benjumea. Hamima Halim.

3D modelling has become an important tool in the distribution and analysis of archaeological data. This technology also has the potential to make archaeological information more widely available to the public. The goal of this project was to develop an interactive 3D environment based on the Békés 103 cemetery in the Körös region of eastern Hungary. This environment allows users to navigate the site in the first person while examining the burial practices of the Bronze Age people who populated...


Death Undone: The Contextual Importance of Human Skeletal Remains in an Analysis of Diachronic Mortuary Practices at Mesambria Necropolis, Bulgaria (ca. 400 BC–AD 1400) (2024)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Emily Snider.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This study addresses the contextual importance of human skeletal remains in identifying diachronic changes and constants in mortuary practices from the Mesambria necropolis, on the banks of the Black Sea in modern Nessebar, Bulgaria. Skeletal remains are the central element of mortuary practices but are often excluded from archaeological interpretation,...
