Obsidian Characterization at the McMaster Archaeological XRF Laboratory: Case-Studies from the Italian Island of Sardinia (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Kyle Freund. Tristan Carter.

The McMaster Archaeological X-ray Fluorescence Laboratory (MAX Lab) was established in 2010 with the goal of using compositional analyses of archaeological objects to engage with broad-level questions about past human behavior. In this context, obsidian has been the primary artifact type analyzed, taking form through the sourcing of artifacts to the geological sources from which they originated. As an example, this presentation focuses on prehistoric obsidian exploitation on the central...

Odyssey Sensing Project (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Rita Dias. Tiago Pereiro. João Hipólito. João Fonte. António Neves.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Survey is an important tool in archaeological research. It allows us to identify the location of potential archaeological sites as well as understand the main natural features of the landscape. Lately, methodological developments in the field of remote detection have significantly contributed with new applications to archaeological research. The Odyssey...

Old Deities for New Men? The Social, Cultural and Political Role of Religion and Ritual Practices during the Late Bronze Age/Early Iron Age Transitional Period on Crete (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Florence Gaignerot-Driessen.

It is generally assumed that the Minoan Goddess remained venerated on Crete after the destruction of the Minoan and Mycenaean Palaces. In the Late Bronze Age, in the aftermath of the collapse of the palatial system, freestanding bench sanctuaries housing large terra-cotta female figures with uplifted arms and their ritual vessels appeared in a series of newly founded Cretan sites. Since their typical gesture recalls Minoan scenes allegedly representing the epiphany of a female divinity, these...

Old Fences and Archeology (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Arni Einarsson.

This is an abstract from the "Fifty Years of Fretwell and Lucas: Archaeological Applications of Ideal Distribution Models" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Fences form distinct patterns and are a prominent feature of most cultural landscapes. Such patterns contain information about people and their relationship with the land. Archeological mapping of extensive Viking Age fences in Iceland highlights the need for a theory of fence construction. How...

On Grounding ‘Margins’ and ‘Marginals’: With Brief Visits to the Bennachie Colony (Scotland) and New Iceland (Canada) (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Jeff Oliver. Agusta Edwald.

Marginality is a perennial trope within the literature of settler societies. This paper is concerned with how people, past and present, become caught up with labels of ‘marginality’, among other forms of ‘identity history’. The theory is grounded in what are potentially conflicting ideas: one that places emphasis on fluidity and change, the other which takes a firm materialist stand. The apparent impasse is resolved by clearly identifying contexts—both material and historical—where temporary...

On some classical roots of the Anthropocene: where does Mediterranean archaeology belong? (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Catherine Kearns.

In the long run-up to deciding the Anthropocene’s scientific status there have been few archaeological voices, as many have noted, revealing the proposed epoch’s narrow periodization of human-environment relationships. None seem to be more absent than classical archaeologists, an omission which reflects not only disciplinary cleavages but also tacit conceits about the classical world as paradoxically generative of and divorced from modern geopolitics and human-nature interfaces. From the early...

On we sweep with thrashing oar: Interaction networks in Aegean Prehistory (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only William Ridge.

Prior to the introduction of sailing technology during the 3rd millennium BCE, communication and movement throughout the Aegean Basin was greatly shaped by the region’s mixed landscape of open sea, island clusters, and mountainous interiors. Modeling the physical landscape and accounting for travel rates and physical restrictions to travel over both land and sea, I examine the nature of movement across the Aegean during the Neolithic and Early Bronze Age (6500-2000 BCE). Based on these...

The Ontological Mammoth Body: Varieties of the Human-Mammoth Ritual Drama Mediated by Cultural Interactions with Mammoth Remains in Pavlonian Moravia and Mezinian Ukraine (2024)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Jayc Sedlmayr. Martin Oliva.

This is an abstract from the "Embodied Essence: Anthropological, Historical, and Archaeological Perspectives on the Use of Body Parts and Bodily Substances in Religious Beliefs and Practices" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Ethnohistoric sources show hunters burnt the bones of prey or hung them on trees, heaped them on piles, deposited them in bogs, etc., in order to propitiate nature spirits such as the “Master of Animals” for game resurrection...

Operation Nightingale USA: Archaeology as a Vehicle for Peer Support in the Veteran Community (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Stephen Humphreys. Clarissa DiSantis Humphreys.

The potential archaeological fieldwork holds for facilitating positive change among disabled military veterans has only recently begun to be explored. Since 2012 three dedicated veterans’ archaeology programs have been developed within the United Kingdom (Breaking Ground Heritage, Operation Nightingale, and Waterloo: Uncovered), and one has been created within the United States (Operation Nightingale USA). These programs share an interest in integrating disabled serving and ex-service personnel...

Osteo-grammetry - Using Photographs to Rapidly Model Large Cemeteries in Three Dimensions (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Jürgen Van Wessel.

Recent excavations at the nineteenth century St Peter’s Burial Ground, Blackburn (UK) are the first to demonstrate the immense value of photogrammetry for recording human remains on a large scale. Photogrammetry is the process of using photographs to record objects in a measurable way. Recent developments have made the technique accessible and capable of high levels of detail in both geometry and texture. These attributes make photogrammetry very appealing to archaeologists and it should now be...

Osteonarratives in the German-Language Tradition (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Estella Weiss-Krejci.

This paper will discuss the research history of "osteobiography" in German-language anthropology and archaeology. That the term "Osteobiographie" is actually not in use does not imply that the concept does not exist. Although German-speaking prehistoric anthropologists were and still are predominantly focused on population research, science-based stories relating to individuals have been told, for instance, about Ötzi the Iceman. On closer inspection such narratives reveal a tendency to surface...

The Ottoman Rule of Athens and How it Shaped the Topography of the Acropolis (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Phoebe Yates.

This poster will discuss the topographical changes of the Athenian Acropolis and how it affected the city’s identity. The Acropolis is an iconic monument defining Athens as a city. It was erected in pre-classical times, and has been the center of religious festivals and the city itself ever since. In 1453 the Ottoman Turks conquered Athens and made it their own. Most monuments, including the Acropolis, were altered to fit the Turkish lifestyle, giving the monuments a different function than the...

Pagan-Christian Interactions 11th to 13th Centuries CE: The Isotope Evidence (2024)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Katherine French. Roman Shiroukhov. John Meadows. Vyacheslav Baranov. Richard Madgwick.

This is an abstract from the "New Work in Medieval Archaeology, Part 2: Crossing Boundaries, Materialities, and Identities" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Balts are generally recognized as the longest persisting pagan-dominated community in temperate Europe, widely practicing until the fourteenth century CE. Historical research documents that trading, raiding, and crusading often brought the Balts into direct contact with Christians in the...
