Laying Aloft in Modern Times: Exploring the Potential of Collaborative Work Between Nautical Archaeology and Tall Ship Organizations (2020)

DOCUMENT Citation Only David H Livingstone. Annaliese Dempsey.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Innovative Approaches to Finding Agency in Objects" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. For those studying the act of sailing a vessel during the Age of Sail, roughly 1500-1900, details regarding a sailor’s day-to-day sailing experience, as well as the detailed mechanics of the operation of the vessel, can be frustratingly rare. Texts that do exist, in the form of rigging guides or sailor autobiographies for...

LCT Movement due to Animal Locomotion: Model Experiments in a Trail Box (2021)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Joseph Wayman.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Experiments were performed using a scale model animal footstep simulator and similarly scaled lithic LCTs (Long Cutting/Core Tools) to test the hypothesis that the devices were manufactured for the purpose of being deployed in the path of target animals to damage their feet and make them easier to kill and use as a resource (Wayman 2010).

Learning by Doing: Past Foodways, Experimental Archaeology, and Collaborative Research (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Laurel Diciuccio. Nathan Jereb. Caelie Butler. Alyssa Lorain. Shelby Anderson.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Our broad goal is to share on-going research with diverse communities and learn more together about past foodways and food-related technologies. To achieve this, we facilitated several research and training workshops alongside Tribal, Alaska Native, and agency partners from Oregon and Alaska. Our intention was to pair Indigenous and archaeological...

Learning through the Children: An Experimental Analysis to Investigate the Relation between Childhood Pottery Making Techniques and Social Learning Strategies (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Steven Dorland. Daniel Kwan.

In Güner Coşkunsu’s The Archaeology of Childhood: Interdisciplinary Perspectives on an Archaeological Enigma, Kathryn Kamp has discussed the potential to conduct experimental archaeology to assess childhood practice. In this paper, we follow Kamp and propose the use of experimental studies to explore the relation between different social learning strategies and material interactions. We investigated the performances of youth participants making pottery. Three forms of social learning were...

Learning to think: using experimental flintknapping to interpret prehistoric cognition (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Nada Khreisheh.

The analysis of stone tools has long been a technique used when addressing prehistoric cognition. While experimental studies have been used extensively as a tool that can give information on these technologies, these studies have often been short term and involved a small number of participants. This paper uses the examples of two longer term multi-disciplinary studies of experimental flintknapping, involving the teaching of early knapping technologies, to demonstrate the value of experimental...

Least-Effort Knapping as a Baseline to Study Social Transmission in the Early Stone Age (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Levi Raskin. Jonathan Reeves. Matthew Douglass. David Braun.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Variation in lithics has been used as a mechanism to infer diachronic aspects of hominin behavior. The emergence of the Acheulean industry is considered a major milestone in the evolution of hominin cognition. This perspective is predicated on the idea that Acheulean large cutting tools (LCTs) require mental templates imposed through knapping and that LCTs...

Let's Cut to the Chase: An Analysis of Experimental and Archaeological Data in the Process of Butchery (2021)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Eric Gilmore. Maxwell Benning. Mitchell Cleveland. Chrissina Burke. Megan Laurich.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This research identifies where taphonomic effects, specifically cut marks are found on zooarchaeological materials from both the archaeological and experimental contexts. Analysis of such taphonomic effects include identification of similar patterning, placement of those marks between the archaeological record, and experimental research. This allows...

Life and Adaptation during the Little Ice Age in Midwestern Agricultural Villages: Evidence through Stable Isotopes (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Caitlin Conly. Mark Schurr.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Middle Grant Creek archaeological site, located in northeastern Illinois, was a prehistoric village occupied in the early seventeenth century, during one of the coldest periods of the Little Ice Age. Despite this, the site was home to up to 200 inhabitants for around a decade and showed signs of impressive maize cultivation and storage to feed the...

The Life History of Early Celtic Vessels: An Experimental Approach towards Exploring the Inferential Limits of Interpreting Pottery Function (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Annelou Van Gijn. Annemieke Verbaas. Nicholas Groat. Loe Jacobs.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In the context of the BEFIM project ("Meanings and Functions of Mediterranean Imports in Early Central Europe") the life history of (drinking) vessels from the Early Celtic hillfort settlements of Heuneburg and Vix-Mont Lassoix was examined, studying the way of production and use. We set up an extensive experimental program of dozens of experiments to explore...

Lithic Raw Material Procurement and Mobility in a Geological Diversed Environmental Setting in Prehistoric Eastern Sicily (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Maria Rosa Iovino. Salvatore Chilardi. Güner Coskunsu. Anita Crispino. Giuseppe Sabatino.

The geological constitution of Sicily is enough complex as the characteristics of the geological units are consequences of the tectonic compression that happened between the beginning of Miocene and the beginning of the Pliocene. Three structural units are basically distinguished: 1. To the north, in the western side (towards Palermo) there is prevalence of carbonatic reliefs while in the oriental side (Nebrodi Mounts and Peloritani Mounts) there are metamorphic and terrigenous deposits 2. the...

A Look at the Impact of Natural Grassland Fires on the Archaeological Record along the Eastern Escarpment of the Southern High Plains of Texas (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Stance Hurst. Doug Cunningham. Eileen Johnson. Glenn Fernández-Céspedes. Markus Crawford.

This is an abstract from the "Fire-Cracked Rock: Research in Cooking and Noncooking Contexts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Fires are an essential aspect of the grassland ecosystem across the Great Plains. Natural fires often can transform surrounding rocks to look like hearths or individual hearthstones used by prehistoric people. Several experiments, however, have demonstrated that grassland fires may not fully discolor the rocks on all sides...

Looking for Light in Ancient Egyptian Nocturnal Rituals (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Meghan Strong.

This is an abstract from the "After Dark: The Nocturnal Urban Landscape & Lightscape of Ancient Cities" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Given the modern abundance of artificial light, it is often assumed that ancient cultures had the means and desire to illuminate the night. The paucity of artificial lighting devices from ancient Egypt challenges this assumption and has led scholars to conclude that the evidence must be there, but earlier...

Los Horcones, Offering 1: The Archaeology of Music and Ritual on the Pacific Coast of Chiapas (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Marlen Hinojosa. Claudia Garcia-Des Lauriers. Matthew Des Lauriers.

Offering 1 from Los Horcones is an assemblage of figurine masks, whistles, rattles and vessels that offers an interesting opportunity for analysis that provides information of the auditory, olfactory, and visual experience of this small ritual. The offering, initially thought to be simply a collection of figurines and masks, were later discovered to be whistles—small musical instruments whose simplicity belies the importance of the meanings they encoded. Experimental archaeological analysis...

This is an abstract from the "Landscapes: Archaeological, Historic, and Ethnographic Perspectives from the New World / Paisajes: Perspectivas arqueológicas, históricas y etnográficas desde el Nuevo Mundo" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. En épocas prehispánicas, las comunidades rodeadas de sierras, sistemas montañosos y, principalmente, por los grandes volcanes de la zona medía de Mesoamérica, poseyeron una estructura ritual íntimamente ligada con...

Low-Tech in a High-Tech World: Teaching the Past to Shape the Future (2024)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Tim Messner.

This is an abstract from the "Experimental Pedagogies: Teaching through Experimental Archaeology Part 1" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. For several million years our ancestors used tools to shape their world, and themselves. Some argue we have lost our way, as artificial intelligence and machine learning has reshaped the fabric of society. Our post-industrial, capitalist mode of production resulted in a nearly complete detachment from the...
