This is an abstract from the session entitled "Love That Dirty Water: Submerged Landscapes and Precontact Archaeology" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Predicting the cultural material typology of eastern coastal Paleoindians is a challenge due to sea-level rise since the LGM. In the Americas, archaeologists have identified only a handful of unequivocal coastal Paleoindian sites. The location of these sites are on the west coast of the Americas, where...
Fish or Flint? A Cursory Examination of a Method for Identifying Buried Lithic Artifacts Underwater (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Love That Dirty Water: Submerged Landscapes and Precontact Archaeology" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Recent research has demonstrated the potential for the remote identification of human altered lithic material in underwater contexts. The underlying principle of this method is the ability of low frequency sound waves to resonate within lithic materials of an ideal shape, making the material vibrate....
The Human-Altered Lithic Detection (HALD) Method: The Latest Innovation in Submerged Precontact Archaeology (2022)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Perspectives on the Future, and the Past, of Underwater Archaeology in the Cultural Resource Management Industry" , at the 2022 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Offshore wind is increasingly important in reducing carbon footprints and improving energy security. Improving the industry’s capabilities in cultural preservation is critical for renewable energy development. The human-altered lithic detection (HALD) method of...
The Human-Altered Lithic Detection System (HALD) in Real-World Situations, Acoustically Mapping of Submerged Pre-contact Sites in the Gulf of Mexico (2023)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Attention this is a Submergency: Incorporating Global Submerged Records", at the 2023 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Offshore wind is increasingly essential in reducing carbon footprints and improving energy security. Improving the industry’s capabilities in cultural preservation is critical for renewable energy development. The human-altered lithic detection (HALD) method of mapping submerged archaeological sites has...
