Big Data for Late Mississippian Depopulation: A View of Vacant Quarter Chronologies from the Canadian Archaeological Radiocarbon Database (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Anthony Krus. Edmond Boudreaux III. Charles Cobb. Brad Lieb.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Over the past decade, the Canadian Archaeological Radiocarbon Database (CARD) has expanded to include entries on over 100,000 radiocarbon dates from the lower 48 states, serving as a freely accessible database that can help reassess big picture questions involving archaeological chronology. In this paper, we use data from CARD to contextualize the timing...

Boundaries and Crossroads, Immigrants and Ancestors: Comparing the Post-Chavín Landscapes of the Moche and Virú Chaupiyungas (2024)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Amedeo Sghinolfi. Patrick Mullins.

This is an abstract from the "Beyond Borders at the End of a Millennium: Life in the Western Andes circa 500–50 BCE" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The centuries following the disintegration of the Chavín interaction sphere (~500/400–200/50 BCE) were experienced in myriad ways throughout the ancient Andes. In the Moche and Virú Valleys in northern Peru, the late Early Horizon (~500–200 BCE) generally saw earlier traditions of large ceremonial...

Bridging the Gap: Spectral and Structural Analysis of Archaeological Settlement in El Zotz, Guatemala (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Omar Alcover. Thomas Garrison. Stephen Houston.

In the last decade, archaeologist have successfully employed active remote sensing technologies, such as LiDAR, to identify ancient settlement in the Maya lowlands. Near the site of El Zotz in northern Guatemala, this technology has aided in the identification of fortresses, terraces, and a network of raised roads. Archaeologist who employ LiDAR focus principally on the structural data acquired from the LiDAR point clouds. Building on these methodologies, we assess the benefits of incorporating...

The Bryant Site: Five Prehistoric Loci in the Esopus Creek Drainage (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Glenn Kolyer.

Excavation of large sites in the Hudson Valley is often limited to the availability of resources and labor. The Bryant Site of Ulster County, New York, is a Late Archaic site located on approximately 54,000 m2 of horizontal surface area on privately owned farmland. Scientific sampling of the site was conducted through survey using a grid-based plan. Each grid square was analyzed for debitage, fire-cracked rock, and lithic artifacts. The results of each unit were contrasted and compared. Through...

Buck Lake, Archaeological Research, and Subsistence and Settlement Patterns at Mount Rainier National Park (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Greg Burtchard.

This is an abstract from the "Research and CRM Are Not Mutually Exclusive: J. Stephen Athens—Forty Years and Counting" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. For the past two decades, research directed at establishing onset of human use, patterned use of montane habitats, integration into lowland subsistence and settlement systems, and temporal change has been imbedded into CRM practices at Mount Rainier National Park. Once thought to be of little value...

Building Histories of Territory Formation: The Case of Southern Jê Expansion, Santa Catarina, Brazil (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Lucas Bond Reis. Lucas Bueno.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In this paper we discuss the expansion process of southern Jê groups since 1400 BP until today. Working with Zedeño´s proposal of territorial history (Zedeño 1997), we explore the available archaeological and ethnographic data to propose phases of establishment, maintenance and transformation of territories occupied by Southern Jê groups since, at least, 1400...

Building Village Communities: Early Fort Ancient Villages in the Ohio Valley (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Marcus Schulenburg.

The Fort Ancient Period (AD 1000-1700) saw the introduction of formal villages to the peoples of the Middle Ohio Valley. To help understand the transition to full time sedentary villages, this paper explores how these new villages operated as communities. This allows for an examination of the relationship between communities and villages as concepts and as organizational units. This paper uses the Guard Village site (12D29), an Early Fort Ancient village, as a case study to examine this new form...

Buildings from the Ground Up: Early Maya Architectural and Settlement Practices at the Belize Valley Site of Pacbitun, Belize (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Terry Powis. George J. Micheletti. Kaitlin Crow. Sheldon Skaggs. Peter Cherico.

Archaeological research in the Upper Belize River Valley has recently produced information that dramatically improves our knowledge of the earliest Maya. Investigations, particularly at the site of Pacbitun, has revealed evidence of radiometrically and ceramically dated cultural stratigraphic deposits for the early and late Middle Preclassic subperiods (900-300 BC). Excavations were undertaken in the site core, principally Plazas A and B, to determine the nature and extent of these communities...

Buried Sites in the Chincha Valley Floodplain (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Charles Stanish.

This is an abstract from the "From the Paracas Culture to the Inca Empire: Recent Archaeological Research in the Chincha Valley, Peru" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Peruvian coastal valley of Chincha is the largest in the south coast of Peru. Research by our team since 2011 has discovered and excavated a number of archaeological sites that date from 3200–1000 BP. The data from this research provide exciting data to test models of early social...

By the seaside: The role of marine resources in northern Spain from the late Palaeolithic to the Neolithic (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Pablo Arias. Esteban Álvarez-Fernández.

Cantabrian Spain is a privileged area for a diachronic study of the relationship between human societies and the marine resources. The region can boast one of the highest densities of Upper Palaeolithic and Mesolithic sites in Europe, and a long and dense tradition of archaeological research, especially in the coastal areas. Moreover, its continental shelf is very narrow, so the preserved sites are closer to the late Pleistocene shoreline than in other parts of the Continent. This paper...

Caddo Interregional Warfare or Local Burial Practice: Using Strontium Isotopes from Outlying Sites to Assess Origins and Settlement Patterns of a Skull and Mandible Cemetery at the Crenshaw Site (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only John Samuelsen.

The 352 individuals from a skull and mandible cemetery at the Crenshaw site (3MI6) in southwest Arkansas have been argued to represent non-Caddo victims of warfare from other regions. Strontium isotopes taken from 80 individuals were processed as part of a NAGPRA grant and have been used to claim they supported evidence of interregional warfare between the Caddo and the Southern Plains. This paper demonstrates that sampling small animal teeth from surrounding sites can be used to test the...

Can Chullpas Provide a Better Understanding of Territorial Organization during the Late Intermediate Period? New Perspectives through Pacajes and Lupacas Areas and Their Influences in the South-Central Andes (2024)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Romuald Housse. Arthur Mouquet.

This is an abstract from the "Beyond the Ancestors: New Approaches to Andean "Open Sepulchers"" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The construction of chullpas in the south-central Andes, and more particularly in the Lake Titicaca basin, is certainly one of the major characteristics of the Late Intermediate Period (1000-1450 CE). Building on prior research and extensive surveys coupled with spatial analysis, this presentation aims to shed new light on...
