This is an abstract from the session entitled "Meanwhile, In the NPS Lab: Discoveries from the Collections" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The National Park Service preserves collections of archeological artifacts recovered at Civil War battlefield sites. The advent of photography just before the Civil War revolutionized the way soldiers’ experiences were documented and shared. These historic photographs also provide modern day scholars and researchers...

This is an abstract from the "Advances in Macrobotanical and Microbotanical Archaeobotany, Part II" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Concerns around sampling methodology, size, and adequacy endure in archaeobotany, centered on one persistent question—how much is enough? At the same time, archaeologists in many areas have become increasingly interested in minimally invasive and minimally destructive methods in response to ethical, community, and...

This poster considers social networks derived from artifact assemblages and interment types from early-Irene and late-Irene and protohistoric mortuary contexts on the Georgia (USA) coast. Network analysis can be used to evaluate potential interactions between community members represented in mortuary contexts. The R statistical program is used to model social networks according to multiple parameters and generate statistical indices of network connectivity. I propose that these indices are a...

Absorbed organic pottery analysis is a technically easy but interpretively difficult branch of archaeometry. Given the complex interaction between organic chemistry, pot use, pyrolytic effects, depositional effects, and modern contamination, it is often difficult to balance interpretations between appropriately cautious and culturally and anthropologically useful information. This issue is illustrated through the analysis and interpretation of a suite of absorbed organic pottery residues...

This Installation Tribal Relations Plan (ITRP) serves as an instrument for navigating ongoing government-to-government relationships with Native American tribes as mandated by Air Force Instruction (AFI) 90-2002—Interactions with Federally-Recognized Tribes (United States Air Force [USAF] 23 Aug 2020).

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Cavates and mesa top pueblo roomblock sites on the Pajarito Plateau have generally been studied as separate site types. This paper aims to explore what archaeologists can learn by studying mesa top pueblos and cavates as one community based on seasonal living. Ethnographic accounts have mentioned how communities would live in the cavates in the winter and...

Scientific Archeological Services has just completed an archeological inventory of a parcel of excess county land that is planned to be sold at public auction and, subsequently, developed according to provisions of a Clean Water Act Section 404 Permit. The concerned undertaking will therefore be one of the federal government, for it will necessarily involve activity of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The project parcel presently includes absolutely no land of the state of Arizona, however,...

This is an abstract from the "Archaeology of the Virgin Branch Puebloan Region" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Over the last two decades, new archaeological findings have challenged traditional ideas about the Western Basketmaker culture. We now know that the processes involved in the origin and spread of early farming in the western Puebloan region were much more complex than previously recognized. Rather than resulting from a single wave of...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Cave du Pont is a Far Western Basketmaker shelter located on private lands within Cave Lakes Canyon, six miles north of Kanab, Utah. Originally excavated in 1920 by Jesse Nusbaum, with artifact analyses by Alfred V. Kidder and Samuel J. Guernsey, Cave du Pont provided the first clear evidence that the Basketmaker archaeological culture extended west of the...

The Raramuri, an indigenous people from Chihuahua, Mexico, has occupied the western part of the country for over 1000 years. As many authors claim, their ways of life have changed little, and they remain as one of the only, if not the only, living seminomadic groups existing in North America. In this paper, we will focus on recent ethnoarchaeological research carried out by students and professors of the EAHNM. This research allows us to create an explanatory model to comprehend the nature of...

Two different versions of a myth, one Kitanemuk and one Kawaiisu, recount the tradition of a man taken into a cave where he was instructed in sacred knowledge by animal spirits. Neighboring Chumash and Yokuts elders passed along accounts of caves being used for shamanistic purposes, in part associated with rock paintings. These ethnographic accounts imply the private use of caves for special rituals by individuals. Nonetheless, there are particular Chumash pictograph sites that appear to have...

This report details the results of a cultural resource inventory by Statistical Research, Inc. (SRI) of 2,880 acres of State of Arizona and Pima County land in the Colossal Cave area in the southeastern portion of the Tucson Basin. The survey located and recorded a total of 24 sites and 55 isolated finds. Thirteen of the sites represent prehistoric activity loci including 7 artifact scatters, 6 stone quarries, 2 rockshelters, and 2 stationary grinding features. The function of the artifact...

The El Malpais National Monument located roughly 100 miles west of Albuquerque, New Mexico, borders the southern part of the San Juan Basin and the southeastern portion of the Colorado Plateau. The extensive geologic history of volcanic activity has created a seemingly hellish volcanic field rightfully named "the badlands" by Spanish explorers. However, the region is in fact home to a rich cultural history that heavily utilizes the natural environment, including its many cave systems. The...

Cayadutta is a Mohawk Iroquois site that was partially excavated as part of the Mohawk Valley Project (1982-1995). Cayadutta was investigated in 1988 and 1999. Documents include a catalog guide, a catalog, floor plans, and a report from the 1929 Follette excavations.
