This poster presents the identification...
Feral Fields of the Eastern Adriatic Coast (2021)
This is an abstract from the "Finding Fields: Locating and Interpreting Ancient Agricultural Landscapes" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. On Mediterranean islands and coastal areas of southern Europe, extensive field systems of drystone walls, terraces, and clearance cairns are common landscape features that attest to generations of landscape modification for cultivation. Tracing the precise chronologies of these fields is perennially challenging....

Fire or Stone? Applications of Infrared Spectroscopy and the Grinding Curve Procedure to Differentiate between Pyrogenic and Geogenic Calcites at Crvena Stijena Paleolithic Rock Shelter, Montenegro (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. It is becoming ever more clear that cooperative efforts amongst researchers trained in a wide variety of archaeological and geoarchaeological specialties during the planning, excavation, and interpretation of an archaeological site are crucial to a successful study. Middle Paleolithic deposits in Level XXIV of the rock shelter at Crvena Stijena, Montenegro are...
First evidences of colonial cultural contact in Northeast Argentina. Settlement and material culture at Sancti Spiritus Fort, 1527-1529 (Puerto Gaboto, Argentina) (2013)
Our case study represents a different example, although symptomatic, of the colonization process promoted by the Crown of Castile from the 16th century. Even as an unofficial project, due to the individual agency of Sebastian Cabot, the fort reflects the colonization process of Latin America in a very clear way, as it shares the main aspirations of the colonialism, and also its principal problems. The archaeological works developed in recent years, besides bringing light to the genesis of the...
FLAME: Framing the Late Antique and Early Medieval Economy (2019)
This is an abstract from the "The State of the Art in Medieval European Archaeology: New Discoveries, Future Directions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

Food and Eating Practices as Affirmative Bio-politics on the Border (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Archaeologies of Immigration and Refugee Resettlement" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In this paper, I will explore the role of provision, preparation, and consumption of food among undocumented border-crossers on the island of Lesvos in Greece. In the various migrant centres run by solidarity groups, cooking and eating become the embodied experiences that bind migrants and solidarians together. Relying on primary...
Forensic Culinary Archaeology: Seeking the Longevity of Recipes and Their Flavors from Crete (2023)
This is an abstract from the "Culinary Archaeology" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. While archaeobotanists and zooarchaeologists work very hard to gain information about the presence and frequency of past food ingredients throughout time, it has been almost impossible to get at actual recipes and flavor combinations from archaeological settings. Food archaeologists worked hard while making great strides uncovering the rich archaeological data about...
The forgotten significance of the Later Stone Age sites near Hora Mountain, Mzimba District, Malawi (2017)
In 1950, J. Desmond Clark led excavations at a Later Stone Age rock shelter at Hora Mountain, a large inselberg overlooking a modern floodplain in the Mzimba District of northern Malawi. At the Hora 1 site, he recovered two human skeletons, one male and one female, along with a rich – but superficially described and undated – cultural sequence. In 2016, our renewed excavations recovered a wealth of lithic, faunal, and other materials such as mollusk shell beads and ochre. Our re-examination of...

Formation Processes and Biases in Big Data (2023)
This is an abstract from the "Establishing the Science of Paleolithic Archaeology: The Legacy of Harold Dibble (1951–2018) Part II" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Much of Harold Dibble’s career was focused on the formation processes of the archaeological record. Initially, formation theory encompassed both natural and cultural formation processes; however, in the last few decades most scholars have focused on natural biases in the formation of the...

Fowling and Food Security in the Faroe Islands (2018)
Seabird fowling has long played an important role in the traditional domestic economy of the Faroe Islands, a small North Atlantic archipelago. Direct evidence for seabird exploitation in the earliest period of Faroese prehistory has been lacking, however. In this paper, I present new archaeofaunal evidence for substantial and sustained seabird exploitation in the Faroe Islands from the 9th through 13th centuries CE. The data suggest that seabirds represented a significant resource in the...

From Agamemnon to the Animals: Zooarchaeological Research on Human-Animal Boundaries at Mycenae, Greece (2023)
This is an abstract from the "If Animals Could Speak: Negotiating Relational Dynamics between Humans and Animals" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. At the Late Bronze Age site Mycenae in Greece, animals have long been understood mainly in terms of records preserved on clay tablets and sealings, artistic depictions, and later references in Homeric epic echoed by Schliemann. The archaeological remains of animals record a more detailed record of complex...
From Enfilades to Medieval Caves: An In-Progress Report from the Medieval Roman Archaeological Survey of Kalymnos (2024)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Aegean island of Kalymnos was unsurprisingly transformed by conflict between Roman and Arab Caliphate forces through the early Middle Ages; atypically among its neighbors, the end of antiquity seems to have produced a more durable and connected Kalymnian community, compared to that which came before. This paper expands on earlier GIS analyses of the...
From Field to Screen: Best Practices for Digital Recording and Global Sharing of Catacombs from Late Roman Sicily (2018)
Ten years after the seminal research on the digital recording of the monumental complex of The Catacombs of Saint Domitilla at Rome, undertaken by the Österreichische Akademie Der Wissenschaften , the virtualization and the dissemination of 3d models of Late Roman catacombs is still a challenging research topic. While the catacombs of Rome are consistently considered for cutting edge digital archaeology projects, the underground cemeteries of Late Roman Sicily, the second in importance to those...

This paper stems from a project entitled TRACT (TRAvelling Ceramic Technologies as markers of human mobility in the Aegean), funded through Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions, which aims to demonstrate that the informed and interdisciplinary study of ancient pottery can shed...
From Medieval Wool Tunics to Bone Powder: Rapid Degradation of Norse Middens in Southwest Greenland (2018)
This presentation is one of the products of a series of ongoing inter-connected, international, interdisciplinary fieldwork projects coordinated by the North Atlantic Biocultural Organization (NABO) research cooperative since 2005 in Greenland. The projects drew upon more than a century of prior field research, where four generations of archaeologists described and assessed organic preservation conditions at their sites in several regions of the Norse Eastern Settlement. This created a unique...
From Soil to Society: Local Variability in Inferred Climatic and Environmental Change and Landuse in the Valencian Community, Spain (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Climatic and environmental factors are ‘creeping’ phenomena with rapid thresholds, and there is a disjuncture between product and best-practice in terms of landuse. The ways in which people engage with their environment are necessarily influenced by the nature of the given region, but the form of that engagement is contingent on cultural and historical...
