Reducing Large Data Sets Using Granger Causality: A Paleoecological Example from the Columbia Plateau (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Elizabeth Scharf.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This paper presents proxies of vegetation, climate, human population, and fire from late Holocene sediments from the Columbia Plateau (USA). Statisitical analyses such as multivariate regression and Granger Causality time series analysis are used to reduce complexity and illuminate the underlying structure of the data set. Results show that multivariate...

A Sediment Story: Anthropological and Environmental Continuity and Change along the Hudson River Estuary (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Lucy Gill. Dorothy Peteet.

Wetlands have a long history of anthropogenic influence due to their proximity to watersheds, traditionally optimal localities for human settlement. Sediment stratigraphy from these ecosystems is an important source of paleoecological data, as they experience high depositional rates and, due to their anoxic environments, preserve organic material. Humans have acted upon one such watershed, the Hudson River Estuary, since the Paleo-Indian Period (10,500-8000 BCE) and have been a keystone species...

Shifting Baselines: Tales of the unexpected (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Mark Bush.

A shifted baseline is the intergenerational acceptance of the progressive degradation of a system as reflecting its natural state. Paleoecological analyses have revealed the long-term usage by humans of sites previously thought to be ‘pristine’. Analysis of lake sediments in remote areas of Panama and Ecuador revealed unexpected histories of land usage. In Ecuador, Lake Ayauch provided a record of maize agriculture from 6000 years BP. At Lake Wodehouse, in Panama, a 3300-year long record from an...

Small Mammals from the Hell Gap Site, Wyoming and their Paleoecological Significance (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Danny Walker. Rachael Shimek.

This is an abstract from the "Hell Gap at 60: Myth? Reality? What Has It Taught Us?" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Limited small mammal remains were recovered from Hell Gap during the early 1960s. Based on these remains, a lowering of "life zones" was proposed at Hell Gap around c.a. 10,800 yrs B.P. In 1997, the Early Holocene small mammal population of the Hell Gap site Locality One was reinvestigated. Flotation samples were collected by five...

Steppes Across the Land: Reconstructions of Steppe Bison Mobility Patterns in East-Central Alaska through Isotopic Analyses and Implications for Prehistoric Human Behavior (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Crystal Glassburn. Ben A. Potter. Joshua D. Reuther. Matthew J. Wooller.

Steppe bison (Bison priscus) were an important species for interior Alaskan subsistence economies during the late Pleistocene and early Holocene, but the locations of preferred bison habitat areas, seasonal movement patterns, responses to environmental change, and other behavioral factors remain largely unexplored in Alaskan archaeology. This study applies strontium, oxygen, and carbon isotopic analyses to 14 sequentially-sampled and AMS radiocarbon dated steppe bison teeth from two locales in...

Taphonomic analysis of the small mammal assemblage of Hayonim E:implications for paleoecology of the southern Levant during MIS 6 (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Miriam Belmaker. Ekaterina Sevastakis.

This study presents the taphonomic history of the small mammal assemblage of Hayonim E, Israel, and compares it to those of other Middle Paleolithic (MP) sites. Levantine paleoecological changes during the MP have implications for hominin dispersal into the region. It has been suggested that a comparison of faunal assemblages from Hayonim (160–130 Kya), Qafzeh (120–90 kya) and Amud (75–45 kya) indicate a shift between glacial and interglacial fauna which mirror dispersals by Neanderthals and...
