Developing a Legacy Collection of Traditional Rice Cultivation: Implications for Archaeobotanical Study (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Fabian Toro. Chantel White. Joyce White.

Legacy ethnobotanical collections have untapped potential to elucidate human-plant relationships through time and space. This paper examines a subset of a comprehensive ethnobotanical collection undertaken in 1979-1981 in northeast Thailand. The subset comprises 43 traditional rice cultivars and wild forms, each collected along with detailed information about cultivar-specific uses and growing conditions. Our study includes morphometric examination of grains and spikelet bases with the objective...

Developing More Holistic Approaches to Cultural Resource Inventories: Results from a Salvage Survey on the Umatilla National Forest, Southeast Washington (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only William Marquardt. Meghan Campbell Caves. Autumn Myerscough. Tim Lewis.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Most heritage surveys conducted by Federal agencies in compliance with the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) focus exclusively on archaeological resources. This approach has resulted in the effective documentation and preservation of archaeological sites but has led to gaps in our understanding of a wide variety of cultural resources. For the last...

An Ethnobotanical Approach to an Apalachee Ceramic Jar (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Jen Knutson. Robert Lynch.

A nearly intact, Chattahoochee roughened variety Chattahoochee, Apalachee ceramic jar was excavated in the 2014 summer field season by the University of West Florida Colonial Frontiers Archaeological Field School. It was recovered from the Spanish mission of San Joseph de Escambe situated in northwest Florida and occupied from 1741-1761. Testing of the vessel for organic residue, specifically Ilex vomitoria, may provide evidence to support to a hypothesis that the vessel was used to serve the...

Famine Foods and Food Security in Ancient and Modern Yaxuna (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Harper Dine. Traci Ardren.

Food as an object of study can reveal relationships between biological necessity, culture, and oppression. The 1996 World Summit on Food Security declared that "food should not be used as an instrument for political and economic pressure," yet archaeology shows myriad ways in which food access was manipulated in the past, and the ramifications of those manipulations. In the Maya area, prestige foods have tended to be the focus of analysis. In this paper, we emphasize the importance of the...

From Quelites to Crop Indices: Thinking Through Maya Chenopods (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only David Goldstein. Jon Hageman.

While chenopod cultivation has been documented extensively in North and South America, evidence for similar practices in the Maya area is lacking. Macrobotanical evidence of Chenopodium recovered from pre-Hispanic Maya archaeological sites is limited to a few seeds. In contrast, the palynological record suggests widespread tolerance across the entirety of the Maya area, if not intensive management or even cultivation of Cheno-am genera in some contexts. It is likely that chenopods are an...

Gene-Culture Coevolution, Pit Hearth Cooking, and the Diabetes Epidemic among North American Indigenous Populations (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Molly Carney.

While the diabetes epidemic among indigenous Native American populations has been examined for more than 30 years, the nuances between environmental and genetic causes of this disease remain understudied. In this paper, I explore the idea that the diabetes epidemic among Native American populations may be partially attributed to the introduction of a diet suited for Westernized populations. I will specifically look at gene-culture coevolution and the salivary amylase gene (AMY1) copy numbers...

Getting to the root (2024)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Isabelle Maurice-Hammond. Darcy Mathews.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Estuarine root gardens are poorly understood and under-researched sites of Indigenous plant cultivation on the Northwest Coast of North America. Combining archaeology, ecology and pedology, and drawing from research conducted on 'Namgis and Ahousaht First Nations territories in British Columbia, Canada, this research proposes a novel method to aid in the...

High Altitude Maize (Zea mays L.) Cultivation in the Lake Titicaca Basin and Endemism (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only John Staller.

Scientists have long maintained the upper limits of maize (Zea mays L cultivation was 3,600 masl. Archaeological evidence has documented a particular maize variety called tunqu by indigenous speaking populations, generally cultivated on terraces around the Copacabana Peninsula between 3810 to 4100 masl, in the Lake Titicaca Basin, Bolivia. This is the first known maize variety cultivated above 3600 masl. There were wide-spread landscape modifications such as raised fields and terraces geared to...
