This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Located 800 km from Cuzco, the Inka capital, Puerto Inka served as a crucial junction, linking the coastal Inka road with a transversal route to Cuzco. However, this region had remained underexplored in previous studies. By conducting excavations and surveys at Puerto Inka and its surrounding area, this research aimed to shed light on the Inka Empire's...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Puerto Inka, also known as Quebrada de la Vaca, which lies on the Pacific shore in southern Peru, near the modern town of Chala, was connected to the Inka capital of Cuzco (over 800 km away) by the Royal Inca Road network, now known as the Qhapaq Ñan. Because of its preservation, its distinct administrative structures, its unique geographic position, and...

This paper examines settlement patterns of the late pre-Contact era (1300-1500 C.E.) in the central and upper Tombigbee River, with a focus on the Blackland Prairie portion. Mississippian and Protohistoric settlement strategies and chronologies are overviewed with an eye toward understanding the coalescence of Contact-era polities and the abandonment of the Tombigbee floodplain. Climatological, sociopolitical, and demographic factors are evaluated. Decentralization as a bottom-up response to...

This study investigates the nature and intensity of ancient Maya household economies in northwestern Belize. The primary focus will be centered on investigative ways in which settlement pattern data offers insight to understanding production systems in hinterland communities. The preliminary patterned relationship that emerged among settlement features and land resources allowed for the interpretation of land management strategies and production systems implemented in different environment zones...

This is an abstract from the "Ann F. Ramenofsky: Papers in Honor of a Non-Normative Career" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Archaeological records are knowledge palimpsests of the research agendas responsible for identifying and defining these records. When evaluating the representativeness of these records, biases inherent to the research agendas themselves, ranging from methodological approaches to political considerations, are typically...

This is an abstract from the "Archaeology of the Grand Canyon-Parashant National Monument" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In this paper we examine the archaeology of the southwestern portion of the Grand Canyon-Parashant National Monument. Drawing on an extensive survey database of more than 600 site records, we trace the Puebloan occupation of the area from the initial settlement at around A.D. 900/1000 to abandonment at about A.D. 1250. In...

This is an abstract from the "Approaches to Cultural and Biological Complexity in Mexico at the Time of Spanish Conquest" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Southern Mexico has been the site of many large-scale regional settlement pattern projects that have been instrumental in developing the regional histories that contribute to our understandings of the sociopolitical and economic climate that was encountered by the Spanish upon their arrival nearly...

This is an abstract from the "Quivira Revisited" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The identification of the "great settlement" visited by Juan de Oñate in 1601 has led to a wholesale revision of our understanding of protohistoric archaeology in Kansas. Instead of clusters of villages, the habitation sites of the Great Bend Aspect are large towns that contained thousands of residents. Sites of this scale require the use of remote sensing...

This is an abstract from the "Mountains, Rain, and Techniques of Governance in Mesoamerica" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Mesoamerican archaeological sites often take advantage of the surrounding natural landscape to enhance both the political machinations of the ruling elite and the sacred ideals of the community at large. In Guatemala, Belize, Mexico, and other highland or steep regions, archaeologists have repeatedly demonstrated the dynamic...

This is an abstract from the "Archaeological Research in Montezuma Canyon, San Juan County, Utah" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Brigham Young University’s Archaeology Field School conducted three seasons of fieldwork from 1975 - 1977 on the Basketmaker III and Pueblo 1 – Pueblo II Ancestral Puebloan components of Cave Canyon Village in Montezuma Canyon, southeastern Utah. The excavations provided data, including radiocarbon, archaeomagnetic and...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Recent geomorphological analysis of shoreline deposits in Manabí and Santa Elena provinces (Ecuador) provides evidence of significant mid-Holocene marine transgression. Newly obtained radiocarbon dates from relict coastal features places these changes to the Valdivia Phase (4400 to 1500 cal BC). Arguments for and against this phenomenon are reviewed with...

This is an abstract from the "Recent Research on Early Chinese Borderland Cultures and Archaeological Materials" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Dian culture of Yunnan is known for production and use of bronze artifacts exhibiting remarkable artistic and technical features. However, for most of the 20th century our understanding of Dian culture was based mainly on materials from burials around Lake Dian. Meanwhile, little was known about the...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. For settlement pattern analysis where territorial exclusion is assumed to be at play, Fretwell and Lucas's 1969 model is still the core explanation for IDD. Rather than focus on population density, it would be more in keeping with formal models of behavioral ecology to analyze the dynamic through marginal analysis. Established groups should defend...
