Aiding Archaeological Site Interpretation through Soil Geochemistry (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Michael J. Gall.

This paper synthesizes the results of 45 soil geochemical studies undertaken on historic archaeological sites in Delaware since the 1990s that utilized weak acid extraction methods. Analysis was completed as part of an alternative mitigation survey for Delaware’s U.S. Route 301 project. The data reveals the importance of soil geochemistry in site and feature interpretation, site boundary delineation, archaeological site prospection, and spatial use analysis within sites. Soil geochemistry aids...

Ephemeral features and evolving landscapes: understanding mankind’s (in-)visibility in the archaeo-geophysical record. (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Philippe De Smedt.

Geophysical prospection methods are coming of age as a standard part of the archeological toolkit. Archaeologists, especially in Europe, are increasingly reliant on geophysical data in both developer-led and research archaeology. More recently, archaeological geophysics is bridging the gap between site and landscape through motorized survey strategies. This upscaling particularly highlights a number of methodological difficulties inherent to geophysical prospecting. A first follows its...


Exploring the Relationship between Surface and Subsurface Contexts in the Permian Basin, Southeastern New Mexico (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Michael Heilen. Monica Murrell. Phillip Leckman. Robert Heckman.

Analysis of previous cultural resource management investigations conducted in the Permian Basin of southeastern New Mexico indicate that many data are of poor quality, unstandardized, and of limited utility for comparative purposes or regional planning. Part of the problem is the limited understanding of which methods are best suited for site recording and testing and, more specifically, how observations made at the site surface correspond to subsurface content. This poster presents an...


Into the Distance: Initial observations from the Dornod Mongol Survey (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Joshua Wright. William Honeychurch. Amartuvshin Chunag.

We will report on the initial fieldwork of the Dornod Mongol Survey, an ongoing project in Southeastern Mongolia. This paper will discuss inhabitation and the integration and construction of social landscapes through time, touch upon our methods for recovering this data and ways in which we use it. The structure of our project allows us to challenge the frontier identity of this region in several time periods through chronological frameworks, scales of interaction and integration. Our focus...

Sites, landscapes, and survey intensity in the South Caucasus: the evolution of landscape archaeology approaches in Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Emily Hammer. Dan Lawrence.

In the last decade, the number of landscape archaeology projects in South Caucasia has dramatically increased. South Caucasia geographically and disciplinarily sits between two early centers of survey archaeology (Near East and Mediterranean), each with its own methodologies and primary questions. The mountainous landscapes of South Caucasia, the high degree of population mobility in many periods, and the extent of Soviet land engineering challenge archaeologists to develop hybrid survey...

Underwater Survey Methods in Low to Zero Visibility (2020)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Ryan E. Theis. Daniel E. Bishop.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "The King's Shipyard Surveys, 2019: Submerged Cultural Heritage Near Fort Ticonderoga" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The King’s Shipyard Survey was conducted over four weeks in spring 2019. The team surveyed a nearly 63,000 square-foot area of Lake Champlain near Fort Ticonderoga in New York for shipwreck and harbor remains. Divers faced a challenging environment. Although water depths ranged from ten to...
