A radiocarbon date of A.D. 1070 ± 60 was linked to the remains of maize (Zea mays), beans (Phaseolus vulgaris), and squash (Cucurbita pepo) at the Roundtop site in the Susquehanna River valley of New York by William Ritchie in 1969 and 1973 publications. This date established the presence a/beans in the Northeast at an earlier time than in most other areas a/the eastern United States, where they are generally rare before A.D. 1300. Subsequently beans have been reported in pre-A.D. 1300 contexts...

PROJECT Uploaded by: Page Selinsky

This book publishes the results of 220 botanical samples from the 1993–2002 Gordion excavations directed by Mary Voigt. Together with Naomi Miller’s 2010 volume (Gordion Special Studies 5), this book completes the publication of botanical samples from Voigt’s excavations. The book aims to reconstruct agricultural decision making using archaeological and paleoenvironmental data from Gordion to describe environmental and agricultural changes at the site. Different political and economic systems...

This project examined the cultural resources of the western half of the Ak Chin Community's lands prior to intensive agricultural development using waters from the Central Arizona Project. The project's research design assumed that Ak Chin had been used as a floodwater farming location for many centuries. The problem domains and research questions focused on the physical {geomorphological), biological, and cultural subsystems within the Ak Chin ecosystem. The investigation also considered the...

Ochre mineral pigment sources in the Kenya Rift Valley Sampled in 2012 for Zipkin's dissertation research project. Each entry represents a sample of ochre collected. Each sample has a unique identification code beginning with the prefic "KEN". Multiple samples were often collected from the same source in order to assess intra-source chemical variability. Source names are associated with each waypoint.

Nellis Air Force Base (NAFB) has proposed construction of a borrow pit and associated infrastructure elements within Range 61 (R61) on Nevada Test and Training Range (NTTR), Lincoln County, Nevada. Associated elements will include two access roads and two staging areas. Figure 1 Illustrates the extent of the area of potential effects (APE).

Paper prepared for the 1971 Cahokia Ceramic Conference. This conference resulted in the chronological scheme of phases for American Bottoms and other Mississippian Culture sites that has remained in use to the present time. That scheme was published as Fowler, Melvin L. and R. H. Hall, 1972, Archaeological Phases at Cahokia. Illinois State Museum Research Series Papers in Anthropology No. 1. Springfield. The relationship of the pollen chronology to the ceramic phase sequence was not explored by...

The resource document was produced in response to the preparation of an LEIS for the Nellis Air Force Range Renewal, Nevada. The consultation focused specifically on the proposed action and alternatives concerning the future renewal of the NAFR. However, the present CGTO's response to this consultation is not limited to the LEIS, but also integrates relevant recommendations and insights made by Indian people based on previous and existing federal projects in which American Indians participated.

The US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) "Geoarchaeology in the Upper Mississippi Valley” project, conducted for the St. Paul District, investigated depositional processes and archaeological site formation in valley margin contexts of the Upper Mississippi River valley. The goal was to evaluate the types of depositional processes that commonly occur on valley margins, study their timing, and assess the range of impacts that these processes may have had on archaeological site taphonomy and burial....

Our 1985 survey of the Willcox Playa environs resulted in a wealth of Archeological data, the findings of which are presented in the following chapters. We have added to the Archaic database from the Cazador through San Pedro stages of the Cochise sequence, and suggest a tentative Archaic settlement system integrated with local habitats and accompanying resources. Though it is a partial picture, the ceramic period settlement system is also beginning to emerge. Our knowledge of the early ceramic...

In 1995 the skull of a subadult male bison was recovered from the cutbank of Fawn Creek, Lemhi County, Idaho, by a ranger for the Salmon-Challis National Forest. After slowly drying the skull for about a year it was turned over to the Midwest Archeological Center in order to be stabilized and analyzed for clues to the ecology of Late Holocene bison in the Intermountain West. A number of analytical techniques were applied to the skull in order to understand its age of deposition and ecology....
