Twelve seasons of work by archaeological field schools have resulted in the partial excavation of an Iroquoian village at the Eaton Site, located in western New York. One longhouse has been almost totally excavated and two others have been partially excavated. This paper reviews what is currently known about the site and presents information on the quantity and type of some of the artifacts recovered. It also looks at the distribution of some material relative to the excavated longhouses.
Eaton Thickness Histograms: flake scrapers, endscrapers, side scrapers (2021)
Histograms showing the distribution of whole flake scraper maximum thickness (N = 129), whole side scraper maximum thickness (N = 63), and whole endscraper maximum thickness (n = 133).
Eaton Vessels (1975)
Whole, or nearly whole ceramic vessels from Eaton excavations 1975-2000.
Eaton Weight Histograms of Broken Unifaces (2021)
Three weight histograms: broken endscrapers, broken flake scrapers, and broken side scrapers. These are from the Eaton site.
Eaton Weight Histograms: endscrapers, flake scrapers, side scrapers (2021)
These 3 histograms illustrate the weight of endscrapers (N = 133) flake scrapers (N = 129) and side scrapers (N =63) from the Eaton site.
Eaton whole endscraper distribution (2021)
GIS distribution of whole endscrapers on the Eaton site, created by Rod Salisbury.
Eaton whole flake scraper distribution (2021)
GIS distribution of whole flake scrapers on the Eaton site, created by Rod Salisbury. Flake scrapers are defined here as unifacial distally retouched scrapers with a thin distal bit.
Eaton Width Histograms: Endscrapers, Flake Scrapers, Side Scrapers (2021)
Histograms illustrating width of whole endscrapers (N = 133), flake scrapers (N = 129), and side scrapers (N = 63) from the Eaton site. These tools are largely unifacial.
The Economic Base of an Ancient Maya City (2005)
Intensive agriculture supported large ancient Maya populations. However, there have been few attempts to understand how agriculture was integrated with the political economy of a Maya city and that city’s interaction with other polities. The site of Blue Creek in northern Belize offers the opportunity to begin to assess these relationships. Blue Creek had access to enormous agricultural resources and direct access to the riverine coastal trade system. The combination of these factors enabled...
Effective Hydration Temperature and Relative Humidity Variation within the Nevada Test and Training Range, Southern Nevada (2006)
Many obsidian artifacts are found at archaeological sites within the Nevada Test and Training Range (NTTR) and Nevada Test Site (NTS) because of the proximity of several geological sources of obsidian. These artifacts are datable using the obsidian hydration dating method, but effective hydration temperature (EHT) and relative humidity (rH) are significant extrinsic variables affecting hydration rates and, thus, age estimates of artifacts based on hydration rind thickness. Saline diffusion cells...

ELEMENTAL COMPOSITION (XRF) ANALYSIS AND AMS RADIOCARBON AGE DETERMINATION OF A PAINTING (2019)
Mr. Warren Crump provided PaleoResearch Institute access to a painting supposedly depicting Pope Julius II (AD 1443–1513) to determine when the artwork was produced. In addition, PaleoResearch performed an XRF scan of the artwork to identify elements of the pigments used in painting. During the course of radiocarbon age determination, PaleoResearch removed paint and other chemicals present on the linen prior to dating.
The Elk Hill Site, 14RY328: Survey and Testing in Riley County, Kansas (2014)
In 2009 the Kansas Department of Transportation requested cultural resources consultation with the Contract Archeology Program of the Kansas Historical Society and the Kansas State Historic Preservation Office regarding a proposed borrow area associated with the reconstruction of Highway K-18, KDOT project 18-81 KA-0410-01, SFBA no. 1. A Phase II survey conducted by the Contract Archeology Program led to the discovery and documentation of three archeological sites: 14RY328, the Elk Hill site;...
Elwood (1995)
This section provides information on the Elwood site.
Elwood
The Elwood site is a Mohawk Iroquois site that was excavated in 1982. This was the first site excavated during the 1982-1995 Mohawk Valley Project. Files include a catalog guide, catalog, the 1985 site report, feature forms, and floor plan forms. The site was occupied between 1450 and 1500 CE.
Elwood Catalog Guide
The file contains a complete inventory of artifacts recovered during the 1982 excavations at the Elwood site. It also contains an inventory of the Ellis Elwood (now deceased) collection, which apparently remains in the hands of his heirs.
Elwood Field Catalog
This catalog contains field notes from the Elwood site.
