Several Fallacies Handicap Thinking Regarding Pleistocene LCTs: For Example, the Victorian Pet Name “Handaxe” Has Biased Minds with Assumed Behavior for 150 Years (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Joseph Wayman.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Several persistent fallacies have resulted in truncated and stagnated development of thought regarding lithic large cutting tools. First, the big one: the Victorian era nickname “handaxe” is nearly ubiquitous, hides as a clever and well-known and harmless handle for the whole tool class, but stealthily, and mainly without questioning, presupposes that the...

Shaping Hominin Cognition: A Comparative Three-dimensional Shape Analysis of LCTs and Cores from the Early Acheulean at Kokiselei 4, West Turkana, Kenya (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Hilary Duke. Amy Fox. Andrew Riddle. Sonia Harmand.

This is an abstract from the "Novel Statistical Techniques in Archaeology I (QUANTARCH I)" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The development of ‘shaping’ abilities in hominin lithic technology involved increases in higher-order cognition including forward planning, working memory, and spatial reasoning. Longstanding assumptions engrained in lithic typologies claimed that "Long Core Tools" (LCTs), such as "handaxes", were the earliest shaped lithics....

DOCUMENT Citation Only Renata Araujo. Mercedes Okumura. Astolfo Araujo.

This is an abstract from the "“The South Also Exists”: The Current State of Prehistoric Archaeology in Brazil: Dialogues across Different Theoretical Approaches and Research Agendas" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

Shifting Contexts on the Economy of Pipestone (2021)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Alison Hadley.

This is an abstract from the "Interactions across the North American Midcontinent" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Red pipestone artifacts often inspire archaeological investigations of craft production at the site level. Reconstructions of pipestone in the past center on the object itself as central to ritual paraphernalia. However, a regional perspective of pipestone’s role in the economies of indigenous and colonial communities are...

Short Reduction Sequences at the First European Peopling: An Example of Expedient Technology? (2024)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Marta Arzarello.

This is an abstract from the "Expedient Technological Behavior: Global Perspectives and Future Directions" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The early European peopling (about 1.5 Ma) is characterized by a low number of sites and lithic assemblages often consisting of a few hundred pieces. Despite these limitations, it is possible to define the technical behavior of these early Europeans with sufficient accuracy. The reduction sequences are always...

This is an abstract from the "Refining Archaeological Data Collection and Management to Achieve Greater Scientific, Traditional, and Educational Values" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The three authors research surface archaeological records dominated by scatters of lithic artefacts, a class of archaeological data frequently encountered during CRM projects in areas of North America and Australia. We each began researching surface lithic scatters...

Simulating Lithic Assemblage Composition and Its Relationship to Mobility (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Matthew Barrett. Simon Holdaway.

This is an abstract from the "Variability: A Reassessment of Its Meaning, Afforded Range, and the Relation to Process" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Artifact density and techno-morphological form distribution in lithic assemblages are often used to make inferences about mobility. However, the relationship between such observations and mobility strategies varies with socio-natural contexts, leading to contrasting interpretations of the same data....


Simulation and the Identification of Archaeologically-Relevant Units of Analysis in the Study of Prehistoric Cultural Transmission (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Raven Garvey.

This is an abstract from the "Novel Statistical Techniques in Archaeology I (QUANTARCH I)" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Reconciling the archaeological record’s coarse grain with the person-to-person information exchanges central to cultural transmission (CT) models will allow us to better tap this powerful body of theory. Previous efforts at reconciliation demonstrated that within- and between-assemblage coefficients of variation (CV) are...
