AMS Radiocarbon Dates and Context Information for 10 16th-17th Century Attiwandaron and Tionontate Sites in Southern Ontario, Canada (2022)
DATASET Megan Conger.

This dataset contains information for 104 AMS radiocarbon dates from nine Attiwandaron and Tionontate sites in southern Ontario, Canada. Contextual information and information regarding how samples are related to one another is included. This same dataset will be uploaded to CARD (the Canadian Archaeological Radiocarbon Database) after a 2-year data embargo (in 2025).


European Manufactured Item Assemblages from 16th and 17th Century Tionontate, Wendat, and Attiwandaron sites in southern Ontario, Canada (2022)
DATASET Megan Conger.

This dataset contains count and type information for European Manufactured Items (metal objects and glass beads) removed from Tionontate, Wendat, and Attiwandaron sites occupied ca. AD 1500-1650 in southern Ontario, Canada. Data were compiled from published sources and grey literature, and represent a large portion, but probably not every item from every applicable site in the province. More detailed information about how this dataset was assembled can be found in the dissertation: Conger, Megan...


Quantitative and Qualitative Evidence for World-System Expansion in Northern Iroquoia, ca. AD 1550-1650 (2021)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Megan A Conger.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Landscapes Above and Below in Northern Contexts (General Sessions)" , at the 2021 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Usually considered a macro-scale phenomenon, world-system expansion is enacted at the local scale, in the context of local sociopolitical histories. I analyze the composition and distribution of European-manufactured trade good assemblages from 90+ Iroquoian sites (12,000+ artifacts) in Southern Ontario and...


RADIOCARBON DATING EARLY TRADE AND WORLD SYSTEM EXPANSION IN IROQUOIAN SOUTHERN ONTARIO, CANADA, AD 1550-1650
PROJECT Uploaded by: Megan Conger

This dissertation establishes a new timeframe for Indigenous participation in world-system expansion in southern Ontario, Canada ca. AD 1550–1650, by investigating how and when people living in three different Indigenous Nations in southern Ontario engaged with the expanding European world-system. This will be accomplished by: 1- Establishing an absolute timeframe for the initiation and development of Indigenous-European interaction through Bayesian chronological modeling of high-precision AMS...

Stone Tool-making at Two Sixteenth Century Cayuga Sites (2015)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Kathleen Allen. Sandra Katz.

Cowan’s (1999, 2003) research on small Iroquoian camp sites in New York State demonstrated that analyses of stone tools and debitage assemblages enable archaeologists to investigate which type of stone tool industry was emphasized at a site (core flaking versus biface reduction) and to draw inferences about site function. This study illustrates the broader applicability of Cowan’s approach for conducting micro-scalar analyses of technological organization. We compared debitage assemblages...


Virtual Archaeology, Virtual Longhouses and "envisioning the unseen" within the Archaeological Record (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Michael Carter.

In the 1960’s, Ivan Sutherland envisioned a time in the near future in which people would be able to physically enter into an alternative, "digital" world. The ability to not only see the environment around them, but also to touch, smell, hear and be affected by the environment itself would provide a unique digital phenomenological experience where viewers become participants and build on their own personal narratives in a non-linear, almost life-like, virtual experience. In reimagining a 15th...
