The article describes the new methodological approach of experimental archaeology towards the field of archaeology, in which new questions and contexts are asked and answered. Experimental archaeology uses information from excavations as a ground for new questions and hypotheses which are answered in practical experiments. One of the projects doing experimental archaeology to discover more about Iron Age farming practices is the Butser Ancient Farm Research Project, founded in 1972. It is...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Quartzite is a commonly identified material used in the past as heating stones. The quartz minerals in quartzite stones are stable to around 500 degrees Celsius, at which point the quartz mineral experiences a chemical transition or inversion. A second inversion occurs at around 1500 degrees Celsius, causing the morphology to appear similar to tooth enamel....

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Scholars have long debated the size of workforce in a niche industry of decorated ceramics in ancient Athens (600-400 BC) by using a variety of proxies mostly relying on the finished products themselves. In this paper I offer a bottom-up approach by calculating the time investment involved in potting and painting decorated wares. Far from a sprint race,...

DOCUMENT Full-Text Frances Joan Mathien.

This paper is conceived as a summary and review of recent paleoenvironmental research in Chaco. While the orientation is toward reviewing information of potential significance in modelling past human adaptations, discussion of archeological evidence of past adapt ions is minimal. The focus is on characterizing the general climatic and environmental framework, which confronted human populations at different times in the past, and on suggesting revisions of previous interpretations where...

This is an abstract from the "Modelling Human Behaviour through Ethnoarchaeology: Ethnoarchaeology as Long-Term Traditional Knowledge (L-TeK)" session, at the 90th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Animal dung has often been regarded as a secondary by-product of domestication, despite increasing evidence showing that humans recognized its value as fuel and fertilizer and used it both before and during the domestication of animals. Due to its organic nature, animal dung...

This is an abstract from the "Modelling Human Behaviour through Ethnoarchaeology: Ethnoarchaeology as Long-Term Traditional Knowledge (L-TeK)" session, at the 90th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The aim of this talk is to discuss the organization of past hunter-gatherer groups by combining preliminary analyses of the GOT-10 materials with ethnographic analogies. Since the 1800s, ethnographic and anthropological data have been crucial in interpreting prehistoric...

Microorganism have played a vital role in agriculture, medicine, and food production since ancient times. Societies would save, preserve, and inoculate foods and other products with microbes such as yogurt that is fermented with Lactobacillus. Although their existence and mode of action was not understood until the mid-19th century, societies and bacteria have lived symbiotically for millennia. The new field of ethnomicrobiology is defined as the study of the use of microbes, including bacteria,...

The term "mass capture" is widely used in archaeological and zooarchaeological discourse to connote any form of fish capture besides active, individual procurement of a single fish such as hook and line or spear fishing. Unfortunately, this blanket term obscures the diversity and range of mass capture techniques and other critical factors that have implications for archaeological and anthropological interpretation such as materials, technology, ecology, and labor, among other variables. To begin...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. We evaluate the process by which archaeologists have interpreted heat treatment of lithic raw materials in the Santa Barbara Channel region and present comparative examples of materials to work toward refinement of our understanding of production processes. Relatively little systematic work has been done, even though regional lithic materials are well-suited...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Recent studies of microbial communities in terrestrial environments have shown that an input of environmental "triggers" within soil substrate can activate dormant soil microorganisms. Additionally, deep within marine coal deposits, it has been discovered that forest soil microbes thrive, despite their oceanic surroundings. However, terrestrial microbial...

Use­wear analysis relies on the strength of the analogy between microscopic wear patterns produced in laboratory experiments and those present on archaeological tools. Unfortunately, the physical processes that control the production of these patterns, both in the lab and in the past, are subject to complex interactions. One approach to reducing this complexity is to isolate factors (duration, material properties, or dynamics) that influence wear patterns and try to identify their...

Between A.D. 1120-1260 in the Black Warrior River valley of west-central Alabama, a Mississippian identity first began to take shape that ultimately led to the materialization of the civic-ceremonial center of Moundville. While traditional models hold that feasting played an important role in this process, in this presentation, I propose that the adoption of an ancestral hominy foodway during this formative period restructured everyday household activities, seasonal procurement strategies, and...

This is an abstract from the "Recent Archaeological Investigations in Chiapas, Mexico" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Evidence of precolumbian Maya metallurgy is increasingly coming to light with numerous finds occurring in the Guatemalan highlands and the northern part of the Yucatan peninsula. In this paper, we present new evidence of Maya metallurgy from the Mensabak region of Chiapas, Mexico, that dates to the Late Postclassic / early Spanish...
