Light islands in a sea of dark rainforest: Human influence on fire, climate and biodiversity in the Australian tropics (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Simon Haberle. Richard Cosgrove. Asa Ferrier. Patrick Moss. Peter Kershaw.

The use of fire in Australian Aboriginal society has been well documented and has been pivotal to arguments about human impact on the Australian biota. Continuous and well-dated palaeoecological sequences from the humid rainforests of NE Queensland are beginning to reveal detailed records of vegetation transformation and shifting fire regimes within rainforest environments. The archaeological record is also providing new insights into plant exploitation and adaptation strategies to enable people...


Little Ice Age Impacts on Traditional Māori Fisheries: Preliminary Results from North Island, New Zealand (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Reno Nims.

Numerous paleoclimate proxies indicate the Little Ice Age caused marked declines in New Zealand’s atmospheric and sea surface temperatures for much of the period between 1450 C.E. and the end of the nineteenth century. These trends could have keenly affected the productivity of marine fisheries, which have always been critically important to Māori, the indigenous peoples of New Zealand. Considering the close connections that continue to exist between traditional fisheries and Māori economic,...


Living on the Edge: Dogs and People in Early New Zealand (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Karen Greig.

New Zealand is situated on the southern margins of the Polynesian triangle in the Pacific Ocean. Its temperate climate and environment differs greatly from the tropical central East Polynesian islands, from where its first human colonists originated. Although possessing plentiful bird life, sea mammals and other marine taxa, people faced challenges adapting their tropical horticultural practices to this new land. This paper explores the changing fortunes of people and dogs during the settlement...


Local Trajectories, Regional Patterns, and Human Ecodynamics in Northern Māori Fisheries (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Reno Nims.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Archaeological fishbone assemblages are the product of dynamic interactions between human fishers and fish stocks, both of which are enmeshed in broader, dynamic socioenvironmental contexts which are continually transformed and sustained by people and non-human entities. Understanding the history of fisheries therefore depends on careful consideration of...

MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS ASSOCIATED WITH LATTE STONES, NAVMAG, GUAM (1994)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Linda Scott Cummings. Kathryn Puseman.

Three macrofloral samples were examined from different areas in the U.S. Naval Magazine on Guam. Two samples were collected near the base of Latte stones at the Dobo Site and the LaQuet complex. These sites probably date to the Protohistoric period (AD 1100-1521). The third sample was collected from a small utilized shelter in the Maemong River complex. Utilization of this temporary shelter probably also dates to the Protohistoric period. Macrofloral analysis was requested to identify evidence...


Making Geospatial Data FREELY Accessible: Potential for Crowd-sourcing, Site-monitoring, and Multimedia Data Archiving (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Britton Shepardson.

This is an abstract from the "Geospatial Studies in the Archaeology of Oceania" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The island communities of Oceania, and none more so than that of Rapa Nui (Easter Island, Chile), continue to develop their economies, modern identities, and narratives of their cultural past based on plentiful archaeological remains that are visited by hundreds, or even thousands, of people on a daily basis. While archaeologists surge...
