Villa, Monastery, or Vicus? The Archaeology of Monasteries and Productive Centers across the West ca. 400–1000 (2024)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Emily Claire Adams.

This is an abstract from the "New Work in Medieval Archaeology, Part 1: Landscapes, Food, and Health" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This paper investigates the emerging questions surrounding the interpretation of archaeologically attested communities which blur the lines between religious, familial, and independent productive centers in the early medieval West. Recent scholarship has begun to appreciate the interrelationship between cult sites...

Wadi Quseiba and the Shellfish-Eaters? Searching for Late Neolithic Sites in Northern Jordan and Finding an Enigmatic Yarmoukian Site (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Edward Banning. Kevin Gibbs. Philip Hitchings.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. During 2012 and 2013, a survey of Wadi Quseiba's drainage basin in northern Jordan employed Bayesian search methods to find late prehistoric, and especially Neolithic sites that often escape more conventional surveys. This resulted in the discovery of some definite and "candidate" sites, one of which is a Yarmoukian site up to 0.5 ha in size that was the...

Walking the Line: Settlement Patterning in Interior Southern New England as Identified by Utility Corridor Survey (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Jessica Horn. Dianna Doucette.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Although restricted to confined, linear study corridors, archaeological surveys of new and existing utility easements provide an opportunity to take a closer look at Pre-Contact settlement patterning across the interior regions of Southern New England. Cultural Resource Management (CRM) identification surveys and site evaluations within these linear project...

Walls Speak: Architectural "Neighborhoods" in Late Intermediate Period Peru (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Anna Harkey.

In the Yanamarka Valley in central Peru, the Late Intermediate Period saw dramatic changes. Whole villages moved from the valley floors to dense, defensible hilltop settlements, and were still living there when the Incas colonized this region a century later. The remote locations of many of these sites – both those forcibly abandoned under Inca rule, and those which continued on into the early Colonial Period – mean that numerous domestic round houses, storage spaces, patio walls and pathways...

Western Stemmed Tradition Projectile Technology and Raw Material Use in Guano Valley, Oregon (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Geoffrey Smith. Derek Reaux.

Western Stemmed Tradition (WST) projectile points mark Late Pleistocene/Early Holocene occupations in the Great Basin. Considerable morphological variability exists among WST points and over the years researchers have come to recognize various types (e.g., Cougar Mountain, Haskett, Parman, and Windust). Because most substantial WST sites are near-surface scatters that likely represent palimpsests of multiple occupations, it remains unclear whether this variability reflects tools used during...

Wetlands and Woodland Period Settlement on the Florida Gulf Coast (2024)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Martin Menz.

This is an abstract from the "The Archaeology of Wetlands" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Most prominent Woodland period ceremonial centers along the Gulf Coast are located near wetlands, which provided access to a wide variety of resources for the hunter-fisher-gatherer populations who built them. Researchers investigating these sites often suggest that these rich environments created the conditions for increasingly settled lifeways, complex...

What Can We See from Here? Hilltop Sites Northwest of Prescott, Arizona and Their Local and Regional Connections (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Tineke Van Zandt. Helen O'Brien. Timothy Watkins.

This is an abstract from the "Community Matters: Enhancing Student Learning Opportunities through the Development of Community Partnerships" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Burro Creek/Pine Creek archaeological survey northwest of Prescott, Arizona involved partnerships between Pima Community College and the BLM and private landowners in the area from 2003 to the present. When the survey began, the region was poorly known and only two sites...

What We See, What We Don’t See: Spatial Data Quality in Large Digital Archaeological Collections (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Neha Gupta. Susan Blair. Ramona Nicholas.

This is an abstract from the "Archaeological Vision in the Age of Big Data" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In an era of cyber-infrastructures, large digital archaeological collections have the potential to enable deep insights into human history. Yet the life of digital archaeological data post-field recovery is not well understood, and consequently, issues of spatial data quality in large digital archaeological collections have been...

When and Where Did They Go? More Fully Conceptualizing Fort Ancient’s Descendants (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Robert Cook.

There were two distinct cultural systems in a key part of the Fort Ancient region – Anderson and Madisonville – with the general understanding that one changed into the other in situ ca. AD 1400 and then left the region en masse ca. AD 1650, becoming one of several contemporary Central Algonquian tribes. However, new data raise the possibility that this interpretation needs revision. First, through a biodistance analysis we learn that at least some Anderson and Madisonville groups were not...

Where Are All the Woodland Villages of Vermont? (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Jonathan Alperstein. Jesse Casana. Madeleine McLeester. Nathaniel Kitchel. Carolin Ferwerda.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. There is a general absence of evidence of Woodland village sites (~900–1600 CE) in New England’s archaeological record. Due to a long history of colonization and environmental factors, even Woodland house sites, let alone villages, are incredibly scarce in the region. Despite that, many large village settlements appear within the early colonial...

Why settlement scaling research is a good fit for archaeology (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Michael E. Smith.

Although initially developed to understand contemporary urban systems, the method and theory of settlement scaling are particularly appropriate for archaeological data. The scaling framework can be seen as an outgrowth of existing archaeological research on demography and settlement patterns. Although developed independently, the "social reactor" model that explains observed patterning is in fact well-grounded in anthropological and archaeological theory. The key process that drives change is...

Woodland Period Settlement Patterns at Letchworth Mounds (8JE337), Jefferson County, Florida (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Charlie Harper. Daniel M. Seinfeld.

The Letchworth Mounds site (8JE337), located near Tallahassee in Jefferson County, Florida, is a predominately Woodland period site that encompasses the largest earth mound in Florida. In addition to this monumental earthwork, a number of smaller mounds survive and it is thought that as many as 20 mounds may have been lost to modern land use. During the summer of 2014, the Florida Bureau of Archaeological Research and the Florida State University conducted a field school at the Letchworth Mounds...
