Time Jumpers is a classroom initiative designed for middle school students within southeast Michigan inspired by an array of educational outreach programs across the country. Implemented by Wayne State University archaeology student volunteers and faculty, this portable learning program is run as part of the Unearthing Detroit Project which focuses upon collections-based research and public archaeology in Detroit, MI. Time Jumpers integrates hands-on activities, artifact interpretation, and...
Time Pieces: The Use of Historic Maps in Transportation Archaeology (2018)
Landscapes can possess historical values coming from the full range of human history. Because the recognition and definition of archaeological resources is broad and not always well understood, identification and evaluation of such resources at the Phase I level must be made carefully, especially under the contexts of Section 106 compliance. The use of a variety of historic cartographic sources has proven extremely valuable in identifying, defining, and assessing these cultural resources. While...
A Time Study in Making an Atlatl with Primitive Flint Tools (1949)
J. Whittaker: Took him 2 hours and 58 minutes.
Time Travel, Trebuchets, and Atlatls (2009)
J. Whittaker: Teaching archaeology hands-on. Claims student experiment demonstrated that javelin technique more appropriate analogy to atlatl than baseball throw. Experienced javelin throwers did better at accuracy and distance with atlatls than range of others. [Not enough details given to evaluate this experiment.]
Time, Scale, and Community: Hopewell Unzymotic Social Systems (2018)
Timing of Hopewellian developments plays a critical role in developing an understanding of how Hopewell came to be, and what it was. Focusing on the Scioto Hopewell sites studied by the Scale and Community in Hopewell Networks (SCHON), we present the results of 40 new radiocarbon dates obtained from 15 sites including both habitation and earthwork sites. We also undertake an evaluation of previous dates from these sites to come to a more robust understanding of the timing of key Hopewellian...
Time-Geography in the Texas Frontier: Exploring The Topology of Difference at Fort Davis (2017)
Social life in the Fort Davis community was cleaved along ethnic, racial and gendered differences, which were reinforced in the forts architectural layout. The scale of interaction along these social fault lines has been studied in many ways, but the role of the topography in structuring interaction at the fort has not been fully explored. Rather than taking the spatial configuration at Fort Davis as a natural fact, we develop a deep particularism, to determine how entrained geology conditions...
The Timing of the Angel Polity: A Regional History from Site-Scale Chronology (2021)
This is an abstract from the "Constructing Chronologies I: Stratification and Correlation" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Angel polity, located within the northeast Mississippian (AD 1000–1500) frontier, consisted of a network of hamlets and villages along the Ohio River, encompassing ∼800 km2 in southwestern Indiana. In this paper, we present 22 new radiocarbon measurements from archaeological samples that provide dates for occupations,...
