In the summer of 1966 an experiment to reconstruct an Iron Age hut took place on Bredon Hill.

Reconstruction of the Biskupin Houses (1983)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Peter J. Reynolds.

There is little doubt but that Biskupin represents one of the most fascinating archaeological discoveries of this century. Claimed to be the Pompeii of the north, while it does not exactly compete, there is a great degree of truth in the claim that to date it supplies vastly more insight into an early iron Age occupation site than virtually any other. That this is the case, particularly for the structures, is discussed in this contribution.

Replicas of ancient organs from the Roman and Byzantine culture - a small summary of a large project (2013)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Susanne Rühling.

In 2011 and 2012, organs from Antiquity and the Middle Ages were reconstructed as part of a project between the Römisch-Germanisches Zentralmuseum in Mainz and the company Alexander Schuke Potsdam-organ-builder GmbH. The replica of a "Byzantine double-organ" was built, following historical images and written sources, as well as using information obtained from archaeological finds. This musical instrument was already shown at the exhibition "The Golden Byzantium and the Orient" in 2012 at the...

Replication Experiments: The Devil is in the Details (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only James Woods.

This is an abstract from the "Ceremonial Lithics of Mesoamerica: New Understandings of Technology, Distribution, and Symbolism of Eccentrics and Ritual Caches in the Maya World and Beyond" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The manufacture of Mesoamerican flaked stone "profiles" involved a multi-step sequence from large percussion blank to detailed finishing using pressure-flaking. This paper explores issues involved with this last stage. Included is...

Replication of Stone Disk Beads from the Salish Sea Region, British Columbia (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Megan Harris.

This poster presents the methods and results of experimental replication of stone disk beads from the Salish Sea region along the south coast of British Columbia. This particular type of beads is abundant across the region and found in a variety of contexts. Despite their ubiquity, little is known about their production. Through this poster, I discuss the methodology of the four experiments I conducted to replicate these types of beads using similar lithic raw materials, tools, and methods to...

Resurrecting Piercing: Experimental Archaeology at a Global Scale (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Paul King. Franz Manni.

This is an abstract from the "Body Modification: Examples and Explanations" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Across continents, material evidence of body piercing jewelry abounds in the archaeological record. However, the varying procedures and processes of piercing, healing, and stretching these wounds for adornment remains unfamiliar to most archaeologists. This PowerPoint presentation discusses the early self-experimentations that led to the...

A Review of Indirect Percussion Techniques in the Americas and Their Possible Applications in the Manufacture of Ceremonial Bifaces and Mesoamerican Eccentrics (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Benjamin Eble. Zachary Hruby.

This is an abstract from the "Ceremonial Lithics of Mesoamerica: New Understandings of Technology, Distribution, and Symbolism of Eccentrics and Ritual Caches in the Maya World and Beyond" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Almost a century of bias in favor of direct percussion in the archaeological modeling of biface manufacture in the New World has obscured the central role of indirect percussion in this process. We examine ethnohistorical and...

Revisiting the Function of Humboldt Points: Reflections from the Late Prehistoric Hackney Site in Mariposa County, California (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Theresa Barket. Andrew Garrison. Claudia Camacho-Trejo. David Sosa.

CA-MRP-283, the Hackney Site, is a late prehistoric/protohistoric site in Mariposa County, California. Excavated by California State University, Los Angeles in 1972, the flaked-stone assemblage includes debitage, projectile points, and flake tools. A reanalysis of the debitage shows that late stage biface production, expedient flake-tool production, and the production, repair, and replacement of projectile points were all common activities at the Hackney site. A recent analysis of the projectile...

The Role of Artifact Functional Analysis in Understanding Variation in the Archaeological Record: Assessments from Studies on Tool Design and Use (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Joao Marreiros. Ivan Calandra. Lisa Schunk. Walter Gneisinger. Eduardo Paixao.

This is an abstract from the "Variability: A Reassessment of Its Meaning, Afforded Range, and the Relation to Process" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Understanding artifact variability observed in archaeological assemblages may untangle key dynamics marking the evolution of major human behavioral traits. Variability likely reflects technological changes allowing early hominins to respond to dynamic Pleistocene environments and evolving...

The Role of Future Discounting in Subsistence Decisions: The Case of Hohokam Agave Farming (2021)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Matthew Pailes. Natalia Martínez-Tagüeña.

This is an abstract from the "Life Is Risky: Human Behavioral Ecological Approaches to Variable Outcomes " session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This presentation will investigate the relevance of future discounting behavior to precolonial subsistence decisions by examining *Agave sp. bajada cultivation among the Hohokam of southern Arizona during the Classic period, AD 1150–1450. The Hohokam Classic period was tumultuous and included a variety of social...

The Role of Isometric Scaling on Stone Projectile Point Durability: An Experimental Assessment (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Leanna Maguire. Briggs Buchanan. Metin Eren.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The experimental study of stone projectile points created via flintknapping has shed light on issues of culture, penetration, durability, aerodynamics, resharpening, among several other topics. Here, we present an experiment that systematically assesses the role that isometric scaling, i.e., size, plays in stone point durability. Thirty obsidian projectile...

Romano-British Corn Drying Oven: An Experiment (1979)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Peter J. Reynolds. J. K. Langley.

In 1975 during excavations of a multi-period occupation site in Redlands Gravel Quarry, Foxholes Farm, Hertford, four structures commonly known as corn-drying ovens were discovered. All of these structures could be firmly dated to the fourth century A.D. Three were badly damaged but one was found to be almost intact and standing to virtually-the original height of the drying floor at one metre high although the floor itself and superstructure had disappeared. The substructure was in such an...

Roots and Tubers in Late Pleistocene to Early Holocene China: Experimental Paleoethnobotany and Preliminary Case Studies (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Mana Hayashi Tang. Xinyi Liu. Gayle Fritz. Zhijun Zhao.

This is an abstract from the "Frontiers of Plant Domestication" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Recent advances in paleoethnobotanical research reveal that plants have been critical to the human diet for longer and in more diverse ways than previously assumed. This paper addresses the relative dearth of paleoethnobotanical information on the early uses of vegetatively propagated plants in China, despite their significant representation in modern...
