Regional surveys to the north and west of Cusco demonstrate that the earliest villages (c. 1000 BC – AD 300) are found across a wide elevation range, and in varying contexts of local ecological diversity. This paper considers the role that local resource variation and subsistence practices might have played in the long-term stability of these early communities. Using data from 131 Formative Period sites registered across a 1200 square kilometer study region, we evaluate the surrounding...

This is an abstract from the "Negotiating Watery Worlds: Impacts and Implications of the Use of Watercraft in Small-Scale Societies" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The use or increased use of boats fundamentally alters people’s relationship to their landscape. However, how boats alter this relationship is not always straightforward or consistent. For example, increased use or improvements in boating technologies has been variously argued to...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Archaeological research clearly demonstrates that imperial expansions have significant effects on regional settlement patterns. One region where imperial conquests affected social life is the Peruvian south coast. During the Late Intermediate Period (LIP, ca. 1000–1450 CE), the region was controlled by localized polities such as the Chincha and Huarco. With...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Cooperation is essential to labor networks in low-density agricultural societies. Household or neighborhood heads must learn to identify, select, and monitor raw materials, and estimate harvest times and transport costs. In addition, kin related groups must nurture allegiances to attract and reciprocate for labor to build houses, farm, and for other communal...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Antonio Plaza, Veracruz, ubicado en una isla al margen del río Uxpanapa –en medio de las capitales olmecas de San Lorenzo, Veracruz y La Venta, Tabasco- es conocido y señalado como el lugar de origen de uno de los hallazgos más polémicos de la arqueología de la costa del Golfo. Hacemos referencia a la extraordinaria escultura conocida como "El Luchador". No...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. As the Spanish entered Guatemala in AD 1523, they did so with the aid of thousands of Indigenous warriors. Though often ignored in history, the role of these Indigenous allies was fundamental in colonizing and maintaining new territories for the Spanish Crown. These Indigenous conquistadors settled alongside the Spanish in the peripheries of their newly...

This is an abstract from the "Central Mexico after Teotihuacan: Everyday Life and the (Re)Making of Epiclassic Communities" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Shared characteristics between settlements create the archaeological classification of the "Epiclassic" in central Mexico. These characteristics include rise in militarism, increase in long-distance networks, the upswing in regional centers vying for power, and a boost in art, architecture, and...

This is an abstract from the "At the Interface the Use of Archaeology and Texts in Research" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This paper summarizes recent research into the timing, distribution, and causes of ancient Maya settlement in the area of Dolores, Peten, Guatemala, in the western Maya Mountains. Integrating evidence from hieroglyphic inscriptions, ceramic studies, and GIS modeling of least-cost pathways and viewsheds, I propose an...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Lower Mississippi Delta is one of the most dynamic geological landscapes in world, experiencing a complex mix of alluvial sedimentation and coastal erosion. Additionally, both historic and prehistoric human populations have been drawn to this region by virtue of the extreme productivity of the estuarine environments created by the interactions between...

This monograph begins the publication of a series of volumes dealing with select aspects of the Cannon Reservoir Human Ecology Project, funded by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, St. Louis District. The project was formed to investigate processes of ecological adaptation and change in the central portion of the Salt Valley. Work reported here was carried out to mitigate damage to archaeological and historical cultural resources in the area to be inundated by the Clarence Cannon Dam and...

This paper summarizes preliminary data and interpretations of Archaic Period land use patterns in relation to environmental dynamics within Massachusetts. This analysis is a component of a larger NSF-funded research project intended to analyze the drivers of and responses to ecosystem dynamics in the New England region. This project aims to better understand the dialectical relationship among human activity (fire, land clearance, horticulture), vegetational dynamics, and climate. The following...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Point Site, LA 8619, is located along the San Juan River in San Juan County, New Mexico. LA 8619 is a multicomponent site within the Point Community of the Middle San Juan Tradition. Based upon preliminary ceramic analysis, the occupation at the Point Pueblo dates from the AD 900s to abandonment in AD 1300, by Totah, Chaco, and Mesa Verde cultural...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Early settlement at Yaxnohcah appears to have been widespread throughout a landscape covering over 40km2. In this paper, we specifically discuss the distribution of this settlement in the period from 900-700 BCE and contrast it to the distribution from 700-300 BCE. Initial analyses suggest that the spatial range of the settlement contracted in the latter...

Evolution in domestic architecture, settlement patterns, and subsistence technology can be revealed by long-term stability followed by rapid change. Research in the middle Rio Grande valley of New Mexico documents a 4,000-year long record from 3000 BC to AD 900. Archaic period structures, dated 3000 BC to about AD 250, display little change in form, size, and construction details. Settlement pattern changes appear with the first midden deposits and increased numbers of dwellings with associated...
