Timing of Stress Episodes at Houtaomuga: Neolithic and Bronze Age Comparisons (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Deborah C. Merrett. Hua Zhang. Lixin Wang. Hong Zhu. Dongya Y. Yang.

The unworn and minimally worn anterior teeth of 48 individuals from Neolithic and Bronze Age levels of the Houtaomuga site in Jinlin Province, China were examined macro- and microscopically for location on the labial surface of lines of Enamel Hypoplasia relative to the cementoenamel junction. From estimated ages of enamel formation across the tooth crown surface, ages of occurrence of stress exposure were calculated. Variation in timing of growth cessation and recovery from birth to 6 years, as...

Timirud Period Rural Settlement in the Sar-o-Tar Desert, Afghanistan (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Mitchell Allen. William B. Trousdale.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Archaeologists generally recreate settlement patterns based on vestigial remains of rural landscapes destroyed by later settlement, agricultural activity, or environmental degradation. The 14th and 15th century Timurid settlement of the Sar-o-Tar plain, east of the lower Helmand River in southwest Afghanistan, is a notable exception. Dry desert conditions...

Toward a Multispecies Perspective on Human-Animal Networks in Early Urban Societies of Upper Mesopotamia (2024)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Patricia Wattenmaker.

This is an abstract from the "Breaking the Mold: A Consideration of the Impacts and Legacies of Richard W. Redding" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Decades before anthropologists advocated for multispecies anthropology and ethnography, Richard Redding was charting a new path for a multispecies approach to anthropological archaeology. His research reveals an implicit awareness of the complexity of human-animal relationships that is a hallmark of...

Toward complexity in the osseous raw material work at the beginning of the Early Upper Palaeolithic in Eurasia: the Manot Cave (Israel) osseous tools in the Aurignacian emergence and diffusion context (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only José-Miguel Tejero. Reuven Yeshurun. Omry Barzilai. Israel Hershkovitz. Ofer Marder.

The Early Upper Palaeolithic in the Levant plays an important role in understanding the emergence, dispersal, and adaptations of the first anatomically modern human populations in Eurasia. The exploitation of osseous raw materials for technical and conceptual behaviours is recognized as one of the several innovations that have occurred both in the Levant and in Europe during this time. Previous works demonstrated that the complex and innovative working of osseous materials in Europe is...

Toward standardization of lithic use-wear identification in conjunction with technological organization and raw material variability (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Kaoru Akoshima.

The paper examines theoretical problems concerning characteristics of lithic micro-wear traces in the Paleolithic. Use-wear studies already experienced 40 years of research since the discovery of micro-polish varieties which reflect worked materials with wide applications to site structure analysis. However, global standardization of identification criteria still needs comparative efforts, especially on raw material variability and behavioral diversity among regional settlement and subsistence...

Trace Metals in Soils as Indicators of Past Human Activities at Hanwangdu East, Anyang, China (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Yi-Ling Lin. Yuling He. Zezhen Pan. Daniel Giammar.

Through chemical analyses of soils, bones, and organic residues, archaeologists can identify anthropogenic impacts on environment at archaeological sites. In this research, we are interested in understanding if and how bronze production had impact on the environment during Bronze Age China. Soil samples from Hanwangdu East, a Middle Shang period site at Anyang, were analyzed by using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The purpose of this project is to 1) evaluate if ICP-MS is...

Tracing Long-Term Human-Fish Interactions in Hokkaido, Japan, through Ancient DNA Analysis of Pacific Cod (Gadus macrocephalus) Remains (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Yuka Shichiza. Katsunori Takase. Hiroshi Ushiro. Thomas Royle. Dongya Yang.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Pacific cod (Gadus macrocephalus) was historically an important subsistence item for many Indigenous peoples along the North Pacific Rim including the Ainu of Hokkaido in northern Japan. However, relative to salmon, little archaeological research has been conducted on this taxon. Ethnographic records and oral traditions are also limited as many Ainu were...

Tracking Morphological Changes in the Domestication of Sheep and Pigs: A Comparison (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Max Price.

How do animal morphologies change during domestication? How do different parts of the skeleton adapt to human management? In this poster, I take a quantitative approach to domestication by comparing biometrical data from two species of mammals that were domesticated in the Middle East around the same time (ca. 8000 BC): pigs (Sus scrofa) and sheep (Ovis aries). Both pigs and sheep were domesticated by Pre-Pottery Neolithic B communities in northern Syria/southern Anatolia, but these species...

Trade as a Social Activity: Eastern Sigillata and Its Near Eastern Emulation (2021)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Alireza Khounani.

This is an abstract from the "The Archaeology of Trade and Exchange" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. It has been plainly demonstrated that market systems are socially embedded, a quality that fosters the movement of information, commodities, and people. Before the industrial period, long-distance trade required the presence of commercial agents at both the distribution centers and at the destinations for sale. The kin-based structure of merchant...

Trans-continental cultural exchange in Hexi Corridor, northwest China during Bronze Age (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Dong Guanghui. Fahu Chen.

The Hexi Corridor of Northwest China was an important area for cultural exchange between west and east parts of the Eurasia during both historical and prehistoric times. Here we present new dataset of archaeobotanic, zooarchaeological and bone isotopic analysis, and radiocarbon dating from late Neolithic and Bronze sites in Hexi Corridor, and discuss the history of trans-continental cultural exchange in Hexi Corridor before Han Dynasty (202BC-220AD). Our results revealed the chronology of...

Trans-cultural interaction in China’s Shang Period: an archaeo-metallurgical perspective (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Kunlong Chen. Jianjun Mei. Thilo Rehren. Congcang Zhao.

The production of ritual bronze vessels is an internationally recognised feature of Bronze Age China, contrasting strikingly with other early civilizations across the world. Their manufacture exploded in the Shang period (16th to 11th centuries BC), when bronze metallurgy spread across the whole territory of present-day China. However, while the production of ritual bronze vessels predominated in the Central Plains, resent research is showing how surrounding regions exhibited strong local...

Trans-Himalayan Material Culture of India: Special Reference to Steatite Bead (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Amita Gupta. Vinod Nautiyal.

Trans-Himalayan archaeology was always neglected by the historians and Archaeologist. But some recent excavations and my Ph.D field work presented an interesting view of Trans-Himalayan culture. The burial culture of this region dated back to 600-200BCE. I found here the remains of Pyro-technological activities. Steatite bead was first time found in Trans-Himalaya. They are in size from 2 to 4 mm in diameter, 1to3 mm in height, and hole width is about 1 mm. The beads were examined by using SEM...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This study investigates the influence of climate change on the distribution and adaptation of wild soybeans and how it impacted ancient gathering/farming practices related to soybeans. Through quantitative pollen-based reconstruction and ecological niche modeling, it traces the effects of climate change on soybean domestication and post-domestication...

The Transformation from Complex Village Society to Local Urbanism in the Southern Levant:new observations in light of evidence from the Central Jordan Valley in the Early Bronze Age I-II (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Yael Rotem.

The EBA Southern Levant experienced a dramatic pathway to complexity, creating a small-scale urban society. The transition from EBI to EBII periods was characterized by urbanization processes, in which sweeping changes in social structure, political landscape, and economic networks occurred. While the majority of research centered on the nature of the fully urban society in the region, there is no consensus for the specific mechanics and causes of the emergence of these early towns, and the...
