Radiocarbon Dates and Local Variation in Long-term Trends in Far Southeastern New Mexico (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Jim Railey.

There are now well over 1,000 radiocarbon dates from the BLM’s Carlsbad Field Office region, and local variation in long-term patterns is becoming increasingly evident. In the Mescalero Plain, and most local areas within it, radiocarbon dates exhibit a prominent frequency spike in the 7th and 8th centuries A.D., followed by a precipitous plunge in the number of dates. But some local areas within the Mescalero Plain the numbers of dates remain comparatively high in the Late Formative period (A.D....


(Re)Constructing and Using Space in the Epipalaeolithic: Exploring Technologies, Domestic Activities and Communal Living in Eastern Jordan (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Lisa Maher. Tobias Richter. Danielle Macdonald.

In the 10,000 or so years that make up the Epipalaeolithic period, we witness several dramatic social, economic and technological changes documented in the archaeological record, including the appearance of aggregation sites and sedentary villages, intensified use of particular plants and animals, and the movements of people and objects over long distances. While it is easy to track these changes over this large time span, we rarely catch a glimpse of the daily activities and day-to-day...

Regional Analysis in Perspective: An Epistemological Assessment for Paleo-Inuit Archaeology (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Samantha Walker. Kathyrn Kotar. James Savelle. Arthur Dyke.

The increasing accessibility of archaeological data from the Canadian Arctic has promoted a recent influx of macro-scale analyses. Drawing insights from our ongoing research project in the Foxe Basin region, we address some challenges regarding the synthesis of archaeological information, especially as it pertains to Paleo-Inuit studies. We discuss the importance of data quality and address issues of variability in occupation density, duration, and seasonality, both at the household and...

Resolving Patterns in Radiocarbon Data (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Christopher Bronk Ramsey. Rick J. Schulting. Andrzej Weber.

Radiocarbon is one of the most widely used chronological tools in archaeology but resolving patterns in large datasets is still difficult to achieve. This is partly due to the calibration process which itself generates patterns reflecting the changes in the radiocarbon levels within the environment. In addition, in many cases, the difficulty in obtaining sufficient numbers of measurements to draw definitive conclusions can be an issue and there is always the danger of...

Santa Barbara Island: insights into the prehistory of California’s Channel Islands through its smallest island (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Jennifer Perry. Michael Glassow. Terry Joslin. Kelly Minas. Mark Neal.

As the smallest of California’s Channel Islands, isolated and impoverished Santa Barbara Island has received less scholarly attention than its well-known neighbors. Initially described as a "way station" to the other islands, subsequent archaeological expeditions have reinforced the interpretation that the island was only temporarily occupied in the Middle and Late Holocene. In 2012, an effort to rerecord the 19 known sites was undertaken. Subsequent surveys have increased the number of sites to...


Settlement Archaeology and the Role of Persistent Places among Forager Societies in Eastern New York (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Christina Rieth.

The settlement system used by the prehistoric populations of Eastern New York is one in which forager societies often reoccupied the same landscape creating persistent places. Evidence of this can be seen in a variety of single and multi-component occupations that span the Late Archaic and Transitional (4,000-1,500 B.C.) and Early Woodland Periods (1,000 B.C.-A.D. 200). Artifact assemblages found at these sites suggest that the site’s occupants used a diverse array of tools manufactured from...

Social Boundaries and The Cultural Ecology of Artiodactyl Hunting in Prehistoric Central California (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Adrian Whitaker. Jeffrey Rosenthal.

We use a model developed using Geographical Information Systems software to examine the extent to which the suitability of habitat surrounding archaeological sites in Central California affected hunting decisions for three artiodactyl taxa: elk (Cervus elaphus), deer (Odocoileus hemionus), and pronghorn (Antilocapra americana). Model findings are compared to a database of 100 archaeofaunal assemblages from the same area. We find that the model predicts the presence and relative abundance of elk...


South Texas Archaic Hunter-Gatherer Mobility Patterns: A Study using Strontium Isotope Analysis (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Kristina Solis.

Strontium isotope ratios from human enamel can be used to estimate the general origin of individuals and are becoming an important tool in archaeology for studying human mobility. This presentation will illustrate the results of a pilot study looking at mobility patterns for south Texas Archaic period hunter-gatherers using strontium isotope analysis. Six human teeth from the south Texas mortuary site of Loma Sandia, dating to about 2850-2550 years ago, were used in this study. Three of the...


The Southern Deseado Massif (Patagonia, Argentina): Spatial Knowledge and Changes in its Use from the Pleistocene-Holocene Transition to the Late Holocene (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Nora Franco. Danae Fiore. Agustín Acevedo. María Virginia Mancini. George A. Brook.

The semiarid Southern Deseado Massif (SDM) is highly variable in geology, geomorphology and the spatial and temporal availability of water. To the south it transitions into open lowlands and basaltic plateaus dissected by canyons that extend to the Chico River. The La Gruta 1 rock shelter in the extreme south of the SDM has provided the oldest evidence of human logistic occupation in the area, with ages between ca. 12,800 and 12,000 cal yrBP, when conditions were wetter than today. Human use...


Stone tool typology and chronology from late Pleistocene to middle Holocene northwest Mongolia (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Loukas Barton. Christopher Morgan. Bayarsaikhan Jamsranjav.

Understanding hunter-gatherer adaptations to northern latitude marginal environments such as the Uvs Lake Basin of northern Mongolia is crucial for understanding social historical processes such as the transition to herding and pastoralism. To date, however, the archeological patterns of hunter-gatherer life in this part of the world are notoriously ill-defined, on the one hand because so little attention has been given to them, and on the other because buried, stratified sites have been so...


Strontium Stable Isotope Ratio Analysis of the Loma Sandia Archaic Period Mortuary Site of South Texas (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Kristina Solis.

Models of hunter-gatherer territoriality are derived from the ethnographic record but have rarely been directly evaluated with archaeological data. Mortuary sites on the Texas Coastal Plain have long been thought of as a product of hunter-gatherer territoriality. Strontium stable isotope ratios from human tooth enamel can be used to estimate the origin of individuals and can evaluate evidence for territoriality. This paper will report the results of strontium stable isotope ratios analyzed from...
