This is an abstract from the "Cholula to Chachoapan: Celebrating the Career of Michael Lind" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. While the Mixtec region of Oaxaca is famous for its polychrome ceramics, including the iconographically rich “codex style” pottery, in this paper we argue that non-polychrome ceramics also played a significant role in conveying particular messages associated with ongoing social and political rearticulations during the...

This is an abstract from the "Indigenous Stories of the Inka Empire: Local Experiences of Ancient Imperialism" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Archaeological investigations of Inka sites often focus on the presence or quantity of Inka materials as a way of determining the degree of imperial domination. While such analyses may work well in heartland sites with visible Inka materials having a clear imperial connection, in many provincial regions we...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Harley Biggs. Steven Hackenberger. Karisa Terry.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Biggs analyzed data collected by Hackenberger and others in 1986 during an archaeological rescue on the Goddard Site, Barbados, West Indies. For this study, students redeveloped ceramic and shell spatial datasets, compiled site maps, and rendered new computer maps of house features and artifact distributions. The semi-circular house (with hearths and...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In the eighth–eleventh centuries CE, Chinese ceramics were imported to Japan and showed limited distribution in specific sites. Historical documents, along with their geographic distribution and both fine and coarse ceramic assemblages, suggest these sites shared political connections. Past studies on trade ceramics in China have typically directly applied...

The northern Irish town of Carrickfergus, in the seventeenth century, was a thriving settlement; home to a mixed population of English and Scottish settlers, in addition to a local Gaelic-Irish population. As such, the excavated material evidence is particularly suited to considerations of how we interpret, and eventually ascribe, identity in the archaeological record. Cultural identity, and expressions of such identity – be that Irishness, Britishness, or Ulster Scottishness – lie at the heart...

This is an abstract from the "Mesoamerican Figurines in Context. New Insights on Tridimensional Representations from Archaeology" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This presentation explores how miniature ceramic figurines were incorporated into the daily lives, rituals and intentions of the Late Classic period Maya of the Alta Verapaz region. Ceramic figurines are also the remnants of Maya musical instrumentation and have been recovered from...

This is an abstract from the "Andean and Amazonian Ceramics: Advances in Technological Studies" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. As an introduction to this session on technological studies of Andean and Amazonian ceramics, we will briefly review previous research orientations in the field leading to the present investigations and advances in ceramic studies, both archaeometric and technological, in Latin America.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This poster presents a preliminary report on the investigation of ceramic standardization at Bombon Church in Camarines Sur, Philippines, spanning different time periods. Bicol is recognized as one of the few regions in the Philippines where year-round, extensive wet-rice agriculture was practiced even before the pre-Hispanic era. While agricultural...

This is an abstract from the "Novel Statistical Techniques in Archaeology I (QUANTARCH I)" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Changes in craft production over time can indicate shifts in past social structures. However, traditional typological and linear measurements of vessels are limited because they can be insensitive to subtle variations resulting from changes in craft specialization. To overcome this limitation, we measured craft specialization...

This is an abstract from the "Seeing Wari through the Lens of the Everyday: Results from the Patipampa Sector of Huari" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. La cerámica huari ha sido definida como una gran oleada de varios estilos contemporáneos, con sus propias características y conviviendo con un estilo sobresaliente y diferente denominado Conchopata, el cual sirvió como marcador del inicio del Horizonte Medio. Gracias a las excavaciones en Huari y...

This is an abstract from the "The Bolonchen Regional Archaeological Project: 25 Years of Research in the Puuc" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Research conducted by the Bolonchen Regional Archaeological Project over the last several decades has firmly established the presence of Middle Preclassic occupations across the Puuc region. Survey and excavation at sites such as Xocnaceh, Yaxhom, and Kiuic have identified and confirmed the antiquity of a...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Intact Native American pottery is rarely recovered from archaeological sites throughout New England. When it is observed, sherds tend to be small and lack integrity. During excavations along a power line corridor for a Cultural Resource Management survey, over 25 sherds of intact Native American pottery were recovered. New England, specifically Rhode...

The High Valley in Cochabamba yields two different ceramic wares, which on first sight may demonstrate a homogeneous society. But by investigating the chaîne operatoire, the two wares each show a different set of variables on technique and practice in the production process, and, therefore, must have been produced in separate workshops. Although there is a functional aspect of each ware on the one hand, the differences can also be interpreted as expressions based on a "habitus" of technical...

DATASET Matthew Boulanger. Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.

This dataset contains compositional (elemental abundance) and descriptive data for a total of 437 ceramic and clay specimens from Iran, analyzed by the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL). These data were generated by neutron activation analysis (NAA) at LBNL between the late 1960s and early 1990s. Data from the LBNL were transferred to the Archaeometry Laboratory at the University of Missouri, where they were digitized for distribution through tDAR. Elemental abundance data could not...

These images show the individual sherds from Iria analyzed by neutron activation at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL). Photographs were taken at LBNL and scanned by the Archaeometry Laboratory at MURR. Individual files were named according to the official catalog numbers of each image assigned by the Graphic Arts Department at LBNL.
