The Age of Common Beans in the (Phaseolus vulgaris) Northeastern United States (1999)
DOCUMENT Full-Text John P. Hart. C. Margaret Scarry.

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...

Agriculture, Mobility, and Human Impact in the Mimbres Region of the United States Southwest (2006)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Michelle Hegmon. Margaret C. Nelson. Karen Schollmeyer. Michelle Elliott. Michael Diehl.

The relationships among land use, population, and environment are not simple. Larger populations impact the environment more than do smaller populations, and environmental marginality promotes greater impacts from human action. While these two statements may be correct at a broad scale, the relationships are not linear. We examine the relationships among these variables using data from eleventh- through thirteenth-century villages and hamlets of prehistoric subsistence agriculturalists from the...
