Something Other – Birds in Early Iron Age Slovenia (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Adrienne Frie.

Human-bird relationships in Early Iron Age Slovenia are marked by apparent contradictions – birds are extremely rare in the zooarchaeological record as a whole, and completely absent from mortuary contexts that are otherwise notable for the deposition of animal remains. Yet birds are the most frequently represented animal in Early Iron Age art. Experience of birds would have been relatively constant – birds are almost always present, yet human relationships with them were likely based more on...


Southern Alpine Late Paleolithic and Mesolithic landscapes (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Federica Fontana.

Thanks to the intense fieldwork carried out by different institutions since the 1970s, the south-eastern Alps represent one of the most detailed case-studies in Europe documenting the occupation of mountain areas by foraging groups. The known sites and find-spots attesting the Late Paleolithic and Mesolithic occupation of this area amount to several hundred. This evidence shows that foraging groups settled in the Southern Alpine region following the melting of glaciers and the re-colonization of...


"Southern archaeology" : the French départements and territories d'Outre-Mer in the Indian Ocean (2013)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Edouard JACQUOT.

At the beginning of the present decade, France developed a new policy for archaeology in its dependencies in the southern Indian Ocean and a department of the French ministry of culture and communication was created to oversee it. Reunion island was uninhabited before its colonization by the French, and was one of the last places in the world where no organised archaeological research had previously been undertaken. Our research program on the island provided two important discoveries related to...


Space and Activity on an Upland Neolithic Landscape (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Lynn Fisher. Susan Harris. Corina Knipper. Rainer Schreg.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Investigations of Neolithic cultural landscapes in Southern Germany raise questions about relationships between clusters of settlements, low-density artifact scatters, and empty space, and call for analysis of individual settlements in the context of broader cultural landscapes. This poster presents results of test excavations on an upland LBK settlement in...


Space, Place, and Landscape at Cividade de Bagunte (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Jordan Bowers.

The Cividade of Bagunte is located on a prominent hill near the confluence of the Rivers Ave and Este. During the Iron Age, there likely would have been panoramic vistas that stretched well over 15 kilometers on a clear day, though this is mostly unnoticeable at ground level in modern times due to dense foliage. From the few areas that do not have trees and in combination with technology to ‘see’ through the trees, it is clear the site’s viewshed includes several other Iron Age castros, as well...


Space, Workforce, and Scale of Production: Ethnoarchaeological Approaches to Craft Workshops in Ancient Mediterranean (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Eleni Hasaki.

More than dots on a map, the craft production loci need to be examined for the space they occupy: their size, organization, and capacity. Spatial analysis can put constraints on workforce size and scale of production, allowing us therefore to reconstruct more accurate models of craft economy. We can also attempt to correlate space occupancy with scales of craft specialization. The "chaîne opératoire" can be examined parallel to the "espace opératoire" to establish what the spatial requirements...


Spaces and signs of transfer of jade and callaïs in the Neolithic of Western Europe (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Serge Cassen. Pierre Pétrequin. Guirec Querré. Valentin Grimaud.

Two different groups of green stones with a distant origin are found together in the Neolithic tombs of the Carnac Region (Brittany, France): the Alpine jades (jadeitite, omphacitite, eclogite) were used as raw material for polished axes and disc-rings, while the Iberian callaïs (variscite, turquoise) for pendants and beads. The way in which these transfers took place will be the subject of this presentation, highlighting the specific features of each geographical area. With such aim in mind,...

Spatial analysis and sampling techniques of cremated remains from Bronze Age cremation urns in southeast Hungary (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Kylie Williamson. Julia Giblin. Jaime Ullinger. László Paja.

Since 2011, members of the Bronze Age Körös Off-Tell Archaeology (BAKOTA) Project have excavated 57 cremation urns from the Békés 103 site in Southeast Hungary. This exploratory study seeks to examine the percentages of cranial and postcranial elements present in microstratigraphic levels in order to better understand the spatial distribution of bones within the burial urns. As a way to explore new approaches, two sampling methods were employed for the analysis of three burials. The first...


Spatial Differences in Site Use at the Middle Paleolithic site of Lakonis (Peloponnese, Greece) (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Britt Starkovich. Paraskevi Elefanti. Eleni Panagopoulou.

Lakonis is a Middle Paleolithic rockshelter on the coast of the Mani Peninsula of southern Greece. It is well-known for the preservation of a Neandertal tooth in the late Middle Paleolithic layers, which is one of the few Pleistocene hominin remains from Greece. The site preserves several occupation areas spanning 120,000-40,000 BP. Lithic and faunal remains are abundant, though the faunas are highly fragmented due to heavy concretion of the sediments. During excavation, researchers defined at...


Spatial Distribution of Stone Tools at Peyre Blanque (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Michele Troutman.

Ancient people’s organization of their social space can inform us about the kinds of activities that take place on a site. However, before making any cultural interpretations, the site’s stratigraphic and formation processes need to be considered. The goal of this research is to examine how lithic tools are spatially arranged at Peyre Blanque to gain a better understanding of the site organization and how stratigraphic processes may have affected the artifacts. Peyre Blanque is an open-air camp...


SPD Analysis Sheds Light on North Spanish Mesolithic Demography (2024)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Geoffrey Clark.

This is an abstract from the "Local and/or Exotic Interactions: Symbols, Materials, and Societies" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Summed probability distributions of radiocarbon dates (SPD curves) have become an increasingly popular tool with which to reconstruct prehistoric population dynamics. They are used here to test models of demographic change using Mesolithic data from Cantabria and the middle Ebro valley. Local, regional, and global...

Sperm Whales and Neolithic Whaling Socieites along the Coasts of Atlantic Europe (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Bettina Schulz Paulsson.

This is an abstract from the "Supernatural Gamekeepers and Animal Masters: A Cross-Cultural Perspective" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Sperm whales played a central role in the cosmological world view of early megalithic societies (4700-4200 cal BC) in the Bay of Morbihan, Brittany, France. The whales were engraved as iconic signs on colossal standing stones, some of which were re-used to build megalithic graves. The largest of these standing...

The Spinning Experiment: influences on yarn in spinning with a hand-spindle (2013)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Katrin Kania.

The hand-spindle was the primary tool for spinning for most of human history. For such a long track record, there is astonishingly little known about the influences of this simple tool on the yarn fabricated with its help. The spinning experiment was designed to isolate four possible influences - weight, moment of inertia, fiber and spinner - to see if any hard connections between these factors and the yarn spun can be found. It is the first experiment of this kind and the first source of...

Spiraling like a Boss: exploring elements of Bronze Age ceramic style at the micro-regional level (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Robert Barlow. Hajnal Szász. Györgyi Parditka. Paul R. Duffy.

Fortified tell site excavations in the 20th century formed the basis for construction of a Bronze Age chronology in the Carpathian Basin. Typological and stylistic elements observed on these sites were used to create archaeological cultures for large areas, whose distributions changed over time. However, the use of large archaeological groups obviously masks internal regional variation, both chronologically and stylistically. Different river-valleys, as micro-regions, may have formed the basis...
