Combining Strontium and Sulphur Isotope Analysis to Reconstruct Paleolithic Reindeer Mobility (2024)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Sarah Barakat. Elodie-Laure Jimenez. Vaughan Grimes. Emmanuel Discamps. Kate Britton.

This is an abstract from the "Interdisciplinary Research into the Late Pleistocene of Europe" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Understanding the movement patterns of past animals is key to unravelling Paleolithic hunter-gatherer mobility and landscape use. Strontium isotope analysis (87Sr/86Sr) has long been used as a proxy for provenance studies based on the high correlation between strontium values in faunal tissues and underlying lithology....

Comments on Olympias (2012)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Edwin Gifford.

This volume represents the final publication of the Olympias project, which saw the building of a full-scale reconstruction of a 170-oared Athenian trireme of the 4th century BC and its operation in five series of sea-trials in the Aegean Sea. The first three sea-trials in 1987, 1988 and 1990 have already been published in separate volumes (the last two by Oxbow) and this completes the series with reports of the 1992 and 1994 trials. The 1992 report by Paul Lipke of Trireme Trust USA, which...

Commercialisation, Contest, Clearance: the Archaeology of pre-Improvement cattle droving in the Scottish Highlands (2013)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Donald B Adamson.

This paper considers the archaeology of cattle droving in mid-Sutherland and also Cowal and West LochLomondside. It focuses on the period immediately before the widespread introduction of sheep, the dispossession of many of the sub-tenants, and the application of Improvement thinking in relation to agriculture. As such, it covers the period between 1720 and 1820. It argues that cattle droving was a sign of the growing commercialisation of the Scottish Highlands, in a Gaelic society that was far...

Communicating in Three Dimensions: Questions of Audience and Reuse in 3D Excavation Documentation Practice (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Adam Rabinowitz. Iulian Bîrzescu.

After excavating the Praedia of Iulia Felix at Pompeii in 1755, architect Karl Weber published the building with an axionometric illustration that showed the remains in three-dimensional perspective. In doing so, Weber communicated additional information about the form of the building in a manner that was both accessible to a lay audience and sufficiently "scientific" for a scholarly one. By contrast, digital 3D documentation methods in current archaeological practice often reinforce a division...

Communicating Local: The Role Of Mediated Documents In The Articulation Of Values Within The City Of York (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Katrina M Foxton.

Managing the historic environments of cities is a task that continually concerns local authorities and citizens. Currently in the UK, ‘Local Plans’ for the development of cities form as documents which guide archaeologists and developers forward in the ongoing rendering of urban fabrics. On the other hand, ‘Neighbourhood Plans’ written by community groups create palpable statements of ownership for local areas and heritage. Arguably, the city’s fabric is woven not only by building materials but...

Community action at sites threatened by natural processes (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Tom Dawson. Elinor Graham. Joanna Hambly.

Around the world, thousands of archaeological sites are threatened by coastal processes. Although many countries have successfully implemented schemes to address threats from development, this is not the case for sites at risk from natural processes. Without developers to fund mitigation projects, the scale of the problem appears enormous, and it is difficult for individual agencies to commit to preserving, or even recording, everything at risk. Systems are needed to update information and...

Community Archaeology on a Social Housing Estate in the Early 21st Century: Middlefield Lane, Gainsborough (UK) (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Carenza R Lewis.

Middlefield Lane, in the former Midlands industrial town of Gainsborough (UK), was one of many new post-war British social housing estates built to replace crowded, insanitary 19th century slums with better quality housing and open space, and modelled on the 1928 ‘garden city’ plan of Radburn, New Jersey. Radburn is a national monument but elsewhere, time and policy-makers have left such estates deprived and unprepossessing places with high levels of social deprivation. Social critics have...

Community, Archaeology and Public Heritage in Telford - an English New Town (2013)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Paul Belford.

This poster describes a recent community archaeology project in Telford, a new town created in the 1960s. The project began in 2010 and continues to 2014, and involves a wide range of community groups and others. Fieldwork focusses on the 'Town Park', a large area of public open space that contains a number of previously unexplored remains associated with 19th and 20th century industrialisation and de-industrialisation. So far the project has explored 19th century workers' housing, a 19th...

Community-Based and Collaborative Archaeology in South Greenland: Past, Present, Future (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Cameron Turley. Aká Bendtsen.

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. Archaeologists are increasingly engaging in community-based and collaborative approaches to develop frameworks for co-production of knowledge and its dissemination. Encouraging collaborative frameworks and community engagement has been a key element of the NSF Arctic Social Sciences Program under Anna Kerttula's leadership....

A comparative assessment of Upper Paleolithic lissoir (smoother) manufacture and use (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Naomi L. Martisius.

Recent studies have brought focus to a category of bone tools previously thought to be restricted to modern humans. Excavations of layers dating to approximately 50 kya from two different sites in southwest France, Pech-de-l’Azé I and Abri Peyrony, have produced four nearly identical fragments of bone tools identified as lissoirs (a French term meaning "smoothers"). Lissoirs are specialized tools thought to have been used in hide preparation. Although this tool type has been defined in various...

Comparative Eurasian Statecraft: al-Andalus in the context of the Medieval West (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only James Boone.

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. Attempts to describe and explain differences between Western and Asian state structures have a long history, starting with Marx’s Asiatic Mode of Production and Wittfogel’s Oriental Despotism.The bottom-up approach offered here argues that differences between the two forms are due largely to the way primary...

Comparing Demographic Patterns of Archaeological and Modern Cemetery Data: A Novel Application of GPS Technology (2024)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Katie McGrath. Zsolt Nyaradi. Katie Zejdlik. Jonathan Bethard.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Bioarchaeologists routinely generate demographic estimates of past populations from archaeological contexts across time and geography. Despite numerous ways that bioarchaeological data enhance demographic reconstructions of past populations, few contexts allow direct comparison between archaeological and modern demography of the same locale. This project...

A Comparison of "Scenes" in Parietal and Non-Parietal Upper Paleolithic Imagery: Formal Differences and Ontological Implications (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Elisabeth Culley.

Upper Paleolithic cave art is well-known for its skilled execution, specifically the use of shading, relief, and perspective to render life-like depictions of Pleistocene fauna. Cave art is equally well-known for a near absence of flora, humans, and scenes. In this regard, parietal imagery is distinct from "art mobilier," where these are more common. However, defining "scenes" as a graphic phenomenon can be problematic, and identifying them among superimposed and fragmented images more so....

Complementing and Complicating: Integrating Isotopic and Phenotypic Evidence at the Early Medieval Cemetery of Five Mile Lane (2024)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Ciara O'Brien Butler. Katie Faillace. Richard Madgwick.

This is an abstract from the "Integrating Isotope Analyses: The State of Play and Future Directions" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Isotopic and phenotypic methods are frequently employed in studies of migration and population affinity in the past; however, they are rarely integrated due to differences in scales. This paper presents a case study for the complementary use of multi-isotope (87Sr/86Sr, δ18O, δ34S, δ13C, and δ15N) analysis and...

Complicating Dichotomies of Grief and Blame: Examining the Heritage of Stalinist Repression (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Margaret A Comer.

This is an abstract from the "Exploring the Recent Past" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. A key point of conflict and contest at sites related to Soviet repression is the matter of victimhood and perpetration. At each site, who is identified as a victim, perpetrator, or bystander, and why? Who decides on these classifications, and, within each site’s interpretation, is there any reflection of the very real contestation and ambivalence that attend...
