Middle Paleolithic Land Use and Behavior in the Armenian Highlands: A Preliminary Synthesis (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Phil Glauberman. Boris Gasparyan.

This is an abstract from the "Pleistocene Landscapes and Hominin Behavior in the Armenian Highlands" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Over the last two decades, international-Armenian projects have greatly expanded and refined the Middle Paleolithic (MP) record in the Armenian Highlands. Here, we preliminarily synthesize current chronometric, lithic, and faunal evidence. Our goal is to develop some hypotheses on hominin land use, subsistence, and...


Middle Preclassic Settlements in the Petén Lakes Region of Guatemala (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Timothy Pugh.

This is an abstract from the "Recent Research in the Petén Lakes Region, Petén, Guatemala" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Proyecto Itza has recently resurveyed a large area to the south of Lake Petén Itzá in Petén, Guatemala, extending from Lake Salpeten to Laguna Perdida. The work utilized a variety of methods including total station mapping, photogrammetry, and lidar (conducted by the National Center for Airborne Laser Mapping). The goal of the...


The Middle Stone Age Record in Egypt and Sudan: Implications for Out of Africa 2 (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Deborah Olszewski. Brenda Baker. Sidney Rempel.

This is an abstract from the "Recent Advances and Debates in the Pleistocene Archaeology of Africa" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Africa is the continent of origin for Homo sapiens and thus is the source for human colonization of the Old (and eventually New) World. Out of Africa 2 (anatomically, then behaviorally, modern humans) is supported archaeologically by African stone artifact industries found outside of Africa. Two routes widely...


Migration, Dispersion, or Purposeful Relocation?: Flexibility as an Adaptive Settlement Strategy in Northern Iroquoia, ca. A.D. 1300–1650 (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Jennifer Birch.

Flexibility is a defining characteristic of the Iroquoian settlement landscape. Population movement, amalgamation, coalescence, dispersal, resettlement, incorporation, and abandonment occurred at the local and regional scales throughout Iroquoian history. Even those groups that persisted within more or less the same territories from A.D. 1300 through the contact era had complex and dynamic settlement histories. This paper considers patterns of settlement relocation in Northern Iroquoia with an...


Millenial Tropical Urbanism in the Upper Amazon (2024)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Stéphen Rostain. Antoine Dorison.

This is an abstract from the "Theorizing Prehistoric Large Low-Density Settlements beyond Urbanism and Other Conventional Classificatory Conventions" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. A dense system of prehispanic urban centers has been found in the Upano Valley of Amazonian Ecuador, in the eastern foothills of the Andes. Fieldwork and lidar analysis reveal a deeply anthropized landscape with complexes of monumental platforms; plazas and streets...

Mind the Gap: The Mesa Verde North Escarpment (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Kelsey Reese. Brian Yaquinto.

Archaeologists are inherently limited in their understanding of the past by the quality and quantity of data available. In the US Southwest, we are fortunate to work in a region with a high degree of preservation and long history of archaeological inquiry. Because we work in a region with a dense and well-known archaeological record, we sometimes take what we know for granted and do not critically examine our assumptions. In the Mesa Verde region, extensive survey and excavation have revealed...


Minor Temple Groups, Water Management and Community Formation at Ceibal, Guatemala (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Melissa Burham.

Recent investigations of reservoirs associated with minor temple groups at Ceibal, Guatemala shed light on the role of water management in intermediate-level sociopolitical organization in ancient Maya society. Over the course of the Late and Terminal Preclassic periods (ca. 350BC-AD200), as Ceibal grew into an urban center, minor temples were built at regular intervals around the site core. These temples were the centers of local communities that were integrated primarily through ritual...

A Model and Test of Paleoindian Land Use at Pluvial Lake Mojave in California’s Mojave Desert (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Edward Knell. Matthew Kirby. Jan Taylor. Albert Garcia.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Fluctuations in the extent and productivity of wetland habitat influenced Great Basin Paleoindian land use strategies. Paleoindians responded to resource fluctuations using a “wetland transient” strategy represented by frequent moves between pluvial lakes, or a “wetland stable” strategy characterized by comparatively long stays at resource hotspots. To...

Modern settlement patterns and site preservation in the Middle Moche Valley (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Julia Longo. Cyrus Banikazemi. Brian Billman. Patrick Mullins.

During the July field season of 2014, the authors conducted a survey of sites within the proposed reserves of Ciudad de Dios and Bello Horizonte in the Middle Moche Valley of Peru. GPS data was collected for comparison with previously recorded site boundaries to offer insight into the threat of modern encroachment on archaeological sites. Using GIS and statistical analysis, the authors identified areas of site degradation and loss, categorized each site on a sliding scale of endangerment, and...


Mongol Period Urban Sites and Their Hinterland in Comparison: Karakorum and Khar Khul Khaany Balgas (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Susanne Reichert.

This is an abstract from the "From Campsite to Capital – Mobility Patterns and Urbanism in Inner Asia" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. With its sparse population and few forest coverage, Mongolia is ideally suited for a wide array of surveying methods and as a consequence for landscape archaeological approaches. The proposed paper particularly looks into power and authority as expressed within the landscape. Two valleys in Mongolia will be...
